You can guess from all this that I really really really want something made out of possum fur, but I don't want a possum to die for me. Does anyone know of any fur farms where the fur is gently combed off the animals as they recline on velvet cushions eating choice nibbles and perhaps enjoying a relaxing massage?

A Possum Problem
You can guess from all this that I really really really want something made out of possum fur, but I don't want a possum to die for me. Does anyone know of any fur farms where the fur is gently combed off the animals as they recline on velvet cushions eating choice nibbles and perhaps enjoying a relaxing massage?

If I was a possum I'd rather die as roadkill rather than being "combed" for my hair. That's SOOOO cruel.
Happy New Year!

Well... possums are more likely to be poisoned by the government paid teams that go around kulling the vermin. I've met people who do that as a job, as from what I have heard about the possums, using their fur is the least of their worries.

have a look here, there is info on possum yarn. I did a bit of a google, and it seems like all possum yarn comes from dead possums, which is a shame because I now really want to try some and I just can't!

I really really really want some too, but despite everything I've read it still seems wrong. I may have to read more government literature to convince me that it's alright to wear fur after all.
It's just so soft... *sigh*
I'm emailing you some info I found.
