Help with stuffed animal washings

So... I think I just overloaded the drier or something, but I put one of my larger cheetah plushies in the drier, high heat, and it came out rather matted and clumpy, the filling inside is a bit wonky and bunched, and its kinda of just... a mess.
So for those of you with knowhow, is there a decent way to fix this? ive heard with pillows you put them in the drier with tennis balls. Would that work here? I would hate to lose this cheetah to such lameness.... he also got somewhat discoloured, as did my mini squishable white owl. Im a bit grumpy about it all. but such is life!
Any help would be appreciated!

You could try washing him again and do the air dry combing. But the discolouration is because you put it on high heat, when they are not supposed to be drier dried.
Most of my plushies survive without issue, but this one didnt, alas.
