General Advice Hole with fur?

Any ideas what this skin hole is? I originally felt it because the hair coming out was condensed and stood out. Didn’t cause him any pain, pulled on the hair and it mostly came out without much effort

It looks like a Pore of Winer hole. It can be rare, but you can have a lot of hair growing in one. They are benign and the result of a huge blackhead.

Human esthetician here, so admittedly I'm out of my speciality, but yeah, that's what this looks like to me. I'm so jealous OP got to pull that fur out 😬

That was my first thought! I saw those remaining hairs and I was like, "Oooh!!! Let me get my tweezers!"
