The breed that shares the name "Angora" across cats, rabbits, and goats is known for their long, soft fur. Angora cats have a silky coat, Angora rabbits have fluffy and wool-like fur, and Angora goats produce mohair, a luxurious fiber.
Goats do not produce wool - sheep do. Only certain breeds of goat produce fibre - cashmere goats produce cashmere and angora goats produce mohair - the amount of fibre produced depends on the goats size, age and nutrition.
The fabric from an angora goat is called mohair. It is known for its softness, sheen, and durability, making it a popular choice for sweaters, scarves, and other luxury items.
Mohair is made from the Angora goats' hair.
Angora is a staple fiber because it is a natural fiber. All natural fibers, with the exception of silk, are in the staple form. Since angora comes from angora rabbits or angora goats, the fibers are sheared or pulled, and are not continuous.
Angora goats are typically found in Ankara, Turkey. They are a common animal there and are actually bred straight from Turkey.
