A mammal with feathers. Simple as that.
A trope Older Than Dirt by all metrics. Many mythological and fantasy mammals have feathers; normally these are wings, but they can be as simple as quills (e.g. the keythongs). In many cases, this implies a divine nature to these creatures, since Heaven Above and all.
In more recent years, they have began appearing in more scientific-leaning works. Perhaps they are hybrids, or perhaps they are mammals that evolved feathers independently from birds.

Super-Trope to Pegasus, Our Gryphons Are Different, Our Perytons Are Different, Winged Unicorn, Shedu and Lammasu. Compare and contrast to Feathered Dragons.

Dungeons & Dragons:
The Owlbear is a Mix-and-Match Critter that, as the name suggests, is a cross between a giant owl and a bear, with feathers on the front half of its body. A Wizard Did It.
Numerous humanoids have feathers despite being mammals, the most well known probably being the Avarial, or winged elf.

Shadowrun: Metahumans can wind up with feathers either through experiencing a SURGE event that causes them to develop avian features, or by getting custom body modifications.

The Croods: several prehistoric aberrations are mammals with feathers. Most well known as the sabertoothed cats with army macaw plummage.
