yarb commented on the word skinny pig
For some reason I read "almost hairless" as "still has its hair, but about to be ruthlessly shaved".

Brackets around "almost hairless," please. (I think that's going to be the name of my almost Solveig cover band.)

There, almost hairless bracketed. (I get an image of a poor guinea pig losing its hair but trying to make the most of what's left, maybe trying a combover?) Are there any lists of naked or almost naked animals?
edit: I got so frustrated by trying to edit my original post that I slipped and deleted it. Fortunately, it wasn't very important.

I was doorknocking - whoops, I mean participating in a voter engagement event - for my election campaign last weekend when a lady answered the door holding something in her cupped hands. It was a baby peach-faced parrot that had been kicked out of the nest by parents and she was trying to rear it. Had so few feathers you could have counted them. So I guess I'm saying, yanno, don't forget the almost featherless.
