A teddy bear, I guess. A big one, bigger than me actually, with thin and coarse brown fur. Not fluffy at all. It always felt cold. I didn't hug him very often. I was more content with having him sitting in a corner, strong and quiet, guarding me at night. I gave him one of my nicer toy cars once to appease any feeling of being used. I was afraid I'd lose my only friend. Go figure.
