Being a Rabbit Dork is a *good* thing. Something I aspire to be, some day. A Dutch, huh?
So, if you are a Rabbit Dork, can you tell me anything about this breed called the "Jamora" that I've heard about recently? Apparently they look a little bit like Tortishell cats, fur-pattern-wise? Is that so?
I spent about 10 years raising and showing rabbits in 4-H and regionally (like people do with dogs or horses). Pictures of all the breeds recognized by ARBA. I primarily raised Himalayans and Tans.
I actually hadn't heard of them, so I did a bit of Googling. They aren't a breed recognized by the American Rabbit Breeders Association and seem to be from Germany. Usually, rabbit breed move from being bred in Continental Europe to the U.K. to the U.S. They appear to be a cross between a Harlequin and a French or Satin Angora, which means that they have wool instead of fur and are super soft.
