scruffies
Messy, disheveled people
Scruffies is the plural of scruffy—people or animals with an unkempt, shabby, or disheveled appearance: The scruffies at the back of the bar looked like they'd slept in their clothes.
The term often carries affection rather than judgment, especially for pets with messy fur.
