Anthro or feral?

I never had feral OCs before. I tend to use random feral animals for comedy.

Since I'm not up front on this thread, I'm gonna assume I haven't posted here yet.

I am a green cat! My name represents my actual persona online while the cat thing represents how I like to be viewed as online: a quick-witted gamer who also happens to be a cat.

As for choosing green fur instead of yellow (my collar is yellow since it's my favourite color) ~ When I was a kid, I use to think that there was a such thing as green cats because cats often rubbed their heads against trees to relieve itching I would assume. Naturally, I still think somewhere they exist. X3

I guess I have two fursonas.
two years ago I had a Pegasus named "crimson". A gift from a friend who was into my little pony and art.
However normally I have been using a ferret as my fursona (officially, as of sometime a few months ago).

Definition by Merriam-Webster.

anthropomorphic:
1: described or thought of as having a human form or human attributes
2: ascribing human characteristics to nonhuman things

So technically, the moment ANYTHING is given even a single human characteristic, it can be considered anthropomorphic.

Although (at least in the pony fandom), even though all of the characters are technically anthropomorphic, the term is usually used to describe when people draw the ponies in a more humanized version.

In the furry fandom "feral" tends to pull double duty as either a reference to intelligence level (sapient vs sentient) or to form (bipedal with human build vs quadrupedal with animal build). Here it seems to be referring to form. Since quadrupedal fursonas will be more in the form of their animal counterparts, they are labeled "feral" for classification leaving the bipedal fursonas with more human features to be classified as "anthropomorphic".

Sorry, but that's very cute X3

iunno about the absence of green cats in the world, but since tree bark is usually brown, maybe your theory could explain the existence of brown cats? :lol:

I didn't draw it. I saw that many furs have used it as a ref template, so I colored it in as a kind of 'rough draft' for kicks.
I've been considering drawing anthro for fun, but I'll need to get into that habit.

As long as you don't eat bats, that's fine with me. Go ahead, eat the rabbit! Unless it's Zach, Bugs Bunny, or Harrison (though Harrison is a gigantic hare, soon to appear in my fanfic). You can still eat Thumper from Bambi, because he kind of annoys me.

Eh, bats have too many small bones. :P

And I've decided that my fursona shall henceforth wear glasses since I've reverted back to glasses instead of contact lenses myself.

Yeah, I can't stand contacts myself - I just can't physically poke myself in the eye. :P Fortunately the Genii merged me with my glasses during the transformation process, so I don't even need to wear glasses anymore (as a corgi, at least). You'll have to give us a reference of what type of glasses you wear.

I'll have to get a ref sheet done that includes them. :) That'll have to wait until I have more funds though.

Perhaps the same way he came across extra small shorts and a custom-fit hat? :lol: And if that fails, try watching Alvin and the Chipmunks for some ideas. :P
