Hello- I'm really hoping someone here can help me. I just got a Dormili rabbit 7" made of Alpaca for my 28th birthday. I am concerned that the Alpaca will not hold up to play as well as the mohair. It looks as if it might be prone to getting tangeled. Does anyone here have any experience with the Alpaca Steiff? I guess I should note (blushes) that I do like to give the Steiff a good snuggling and they have even slept with me when I've drifted off while holding them so they are really a played with item in my house. I was also wondering about the airbrush. There was a really cute seal named Wally at the store where I got Dormili and he had painted on spots. Will these wear off with play? I guess I'm just looking for some help as to which steiff would be best for my purposes. I know that originally they were built for play, but I can't help being concerned that they are now made for display and would not hold up to nights in bed. Thank-you for any and all help!!! Shanna
