Additional Information

The Rex rabbit breed was originally developed to harvest its luxurious fur, resulting in a body covered entirely in short, soft, fine hairs. Over time, with changing eras, it has evolved into a high-end, textured family pet rabbit. Rex rabbits exhibit a wide variety of color patterns, making it impossible to distinguish them by body color, patches, or size alone. Identification typically relies on their signature trait: fur with a satin-like sheen.

Note: Rex rabbits originated from a genetic mutation in France around 1919, prized for their plush coat lacking guard hairs, giving a velvety feel.
