Tribbles?

Does your friend live anywhere near a cotton field?
Or a manufacturing plant that uses batting for blankets or stuffs pillows?

Looks like stuff from a Kapok tree - they used to use this stuff to make
warm jackets, blankets, and used it to stuff almost anything (i.e. teddy
bears, dolls, pillows, etc.)
