Etymology

The word 'furred' comes from the noun 'fur', which originates from the Old English word 'fลซra', meaning 'fur, hide, or skin', utilized to describe the hairy coverings of animals. Over time, its use has evolved to describe not only the coats of mammals but also the quality or texture associated with being covered in fur. It is often used in zoological contexts and in reference to pets and wildlife. The transition from the noun 'fur' to the adjective 'furred' has allowed for a descriptive form that characterizes living beings, emphasizing their physical attributes. In literary and everyday language, it connects to themes of warmth and nature.
