Hairless rabbit   Ugly rabbits. Seen one before? People love rabbits; it is a child’s favorite pet. Some say they have cute eyes, some say they have soft fur while others say they are gentle, quiet and neat (healthy ones). These things are not wrong and the topic I will discuss plus the pictures you will see does not in any way make what these people say about rabbits wrong. A popular adage asserts that one man’s food is another man’s poison. What I consider ugly you may fancy and envy. Nevertheless, let us be frank, the pictures bellow are ugly rabbits… It could be true you have never seen these ugly rabbits before. What really makes these rabbits ugly is their hair (over grown/under grown), ears or eyes, which might look weird. Sometimes these ugly rabbits require more attention, care and grooming, which can be stressful for the lazy persons.
