restuffing
Adding stuffing again
Restuffing is putting new stuffing into something—a pillow, cushion, sofa, or stuffed animal—after the original filling has gone flat, lumpy, or worn out.
The old armchair needs restuffing.
Taxidermists restuff mounted animals when the original materials deteriorate.
