Physical
Attributes
Himalayans are the only breed to have a
body that is extremely long, narrow, and
flat. When posed, a good Himalayan will
not have any rise in the body from the
shoulders to the rump when looked at
from the side. When looked at from the
top, a good Himalayan will be perfectly
straight, with hips the same width as
the shoulders. The head is long, and the
ears are thing and upright. The rabbit
is white with color on the nose, ears,
feet, legs, and tail. The eyes are pink.

easy to care for. Weekly grooming with a
slicker brush are fine, except during
shedding season when bi-weekly grooming
may be required.
