* Happens near the beginning of ''WinniethePooh'' during the scene where Pooh is exercising in front of his mirror. When Pooh bends bown, a seam on his rear end (he's a ''stuffed'' bear) rips open, causing some stuffing (which is probably the stuffed animal equivalent of [[NightmareFuel internal organs)]] to fall out. He eventually realizes this, and as a result, Pooh immediately sews his rear end back together again.

* In the ''TinyToonAdventures'' movie "How I Spent My Summer Vacation", Dizzy Devil is afraid to spin (like Tasmanian Devil) because he's shedding, and doesn't want to end up naked. Eventually he does spin and lose his fur, and spends the rest of the movie wearing a barrel and feeling ashamed for being naked.

* In one episode of ''{{SpongeBob SquarePants}}'', Sandy takes off her fur to shower. Plankton, who was stowed into her treedome, steals the fur and uses it to masquerade as her in order to steal the secret Krabby Patty formula, leaving with Sandy with the embarrasing experience of being furrless in public.

* Some ''{{Pokemon}}'' actually wear "clothing."

In animation, sometimes a FunnyAnimal who doesn't appear to wear any clothing actually ''does''; the fur that covers their bodies is actually a removable suit. This can be revealed in a few ways; perhaps a [[NonFatalExplosions Non Fatal Explosion]] goes off, leaving our character in AshFace and furless, with only GoofyPrintUnderwear on. Or, the character can remove their fur voluntarily by using a zipper that was never there before. It's almost always PlayedForLaughs. This can also provide a loophole around NonHumansLackAttributes, hence the character will usually react in embarrassment after their fur has been removed. This can also work with feathers.

* One of Tex Avery's shorts at Warner Bros. was a parody of a nature documentary, which at one point features a lizard shedding its skin. The lizard gets on its hind legs and begins to perform a striptease dance while he sheds his skin, a scene [[{{Rotoscoping}} rotoscoped]] from footage of an actual stripper they brought into the animation studio.

Not to be confused with FurCoat, FurAndLoathing nor PrettyInMink, though any of those might be referenced for the sake of humor. Compare RemovableShell for the shelled animal variant.

* In the ''{{Popeye}}'' episode "Olive's Boithday Presink", Popeye grabs a bear by the wrist and punches it, leaving him with a bear fur coat in his hand.

** in the short "Quiet Please", Spike the bulldog rolls up his arm fur like a sleeve, revealing an anchor tattoo, before running after Tom to pummel him.
