furballs
Grooming's gross aftermath
Furballs are clumps of fur that accumulate when animals groom themselves, then get expelled—usually by cats, who hack them up dramatically: The cat left a furball on the carpet.
The word extends affectionately to fluffy pets themselves: Those little furballs are adorable.
Also spelled as two words.
