- Summary
- Pathe Intertitles - "Those fur trimmings require a deal of attention before they leave their original owner - the Angora rabbit. Angora wool farming is quite an industry now and there is much to learn in order to get the best from "Bunny’s" coat."
"Their food, of course, demands - and get - all that feminine care can give."
""Plucking" takes place every three or four months. The very best strains of Angoras yield anything up to 16 ozs. of wool annually."
""Bunny" loves this, and often dozes under its soothing influence."
"Family life is very strong in Angoraland."
