Can you shave lionhead rabbits?

Hi, in march we got 2 baby lionhead bunnies and we keep them in a hutch outside in the backyard. Since its summer its hot outside and i think that we should take them to be profesionaly shaved. My mom said okay if it helps them, but thik they should keep their long hair because they need it? Well she said we can get them shaved just for the summer if its okay for their health. So if we shaved them, just in the summer would it hurt them in anyway? They have very very long hair and it gets matted sometimes too, which make them even hotter. Thanks.

You should not shave the rabbit, unless it is for medical reasons, you should just make provisions to keep your rabbit cold.

Freeze water bottles to keep them cold

Keep them in the shade no matter what!

Fans and misters work well.

Good luck!
