This led to a googling of angora - and it is indeed made from a very specific type of rabbit hair and produces some of the softest wool around. Though cashmere and the goats have them beat in a contest on softness.
The best part of this google search was finally, FINALLY, having a visual of what an angora rabbit looks like. I don't know how I went 28 years of life on this earth without knowing how to spot an angora rabbit in the wild.

I can't imagine that they can move all that quickly, but I'm thinking that I would hate to be surprised by a gazelle-like speed in this creature.
For some reason, it kind of freaks me out.
