The detail
The angora is a long-haired ferret, a rare coat type developed in Europe that can come in any color. The longer coat needs a little more grooming, but temperament and care are those of any ferret.

What to weigh
Angoras are rare, and coat length varies widely even within litters. The longer coat collects debris and can mat during molts.
