Just one look and you will fall in love. Cute, social, and intelligent! The American Fuzzy Lop, aka Fuzzie or AFL, is still a bit of a newcomer on the show rabbit circuit, having made its debut in 1985 at the American Rabbit Breeding Association, or ARBA, and officially approved as a breed in 1988. Pioneers’, Patty Green-Karl, Gary Fellers, Kim Landry and Margaret Miller are to thank for these tiny bundles of joy. The American Fuzzy Lop originated from selective breeding with the Holland Lop and a dash of Angora. The result was a small, fuzzy bunny with a non-matting coat. The breed has a maximum weight of 4 lbs. with a preferred weight of 3 1/2 lbs. They have soft wool fur about 1 1/2" to 2" long, and long floppy ears that extend 1/2" to 1" below the jaw. Their bodies are short and round, and they have a round head and flat muzzle. With proper care, Fuzzies will generally live to be about 10-12 years old and provide years of love and entertainment. They each have their own unique personality, with the bucks being a bit more mellow than the does. Spayed or neutered, both sexes are very amicable. Aside from a proper diet, grooming, and cage cleaning, Fuzzies require a lot of love, which they will return in kind. Keep this in mind if you don't have many free hours during the day to devote to your little bundle of love. Fuzzies are very intelligent and can be litter box trained.
Some Fuzzies even go on to learn their names and a few commands. Properly
socialized, it’s common to have your Fuzzie chasing along after you through
the house, or learning to play fetch with you.
