Angora sweaters come from rabbits, not goats




These are not, I repeat not Tribbles.

Exibit A: a SHAVED angora rabbit.
Angora rabbits have to be shaved every three months, or their fur becomes matted to the point of affecting health. This breed has been around since the 18th century.








                                                         Angora Goats, are for mohair.

  1. Of course it's not a tribble. Tribbles don't have faces :)

  2. I totally miss my angora tank top I had :( gave it away because I swore 'I'll never fit into it again' and now it's more likely too big for me O.O
