I would answer, but then I'd have to reveal the fact that I run a secret furry identification organization.Reconstruction wrote:Imma furry...but I can't tell whut species...WHO AM I!?!
Those would be comics that are read pretty much exclusively by furries. The best furry comics are the ones you don't have to be a furry to love!Dissension wrote:It usually hovers around that ratio. Much less furry than some other Web comics' forums, from what I'm told.
That's because Housepets! is the best furry comic out there.Sleet wrote:Those would be comics that are read pretty much exclusively by furries.

Housepets!, like most webcomics, are spread by word of mouth. It has plenty of human appeal, but not necessarily enough human exposure. It's mostly furry circles that've heard of it.Teh Brawler wrote:What I find funny is that there aren't even MORE human readers. This is a pretty innocuous strip all around; I can't really see anyone being scared off because of furries.
Unless there's a whole lot more of you than I thought.

It's just easier that way.

I think that's a lot of it. A lot of furry comics are made by furries for furries, and one of the ways they ignore the non-furry demographic is have them star anthropomorphs for no good reason. If a comic is zanier and less realistic, like, say, Precocious or VG Cats, people tend not to care, but when you get to things like Jack, where the characters could very easily be humans (one plot point aside), it kind of makes humans think, "why is this even furry?", which turns them off. Housepets! doesn't do that, because the pets have every reason to be animals, and the setting is very familiar to furries and humans alike. All it takes is more exposure and I think that 25% will be able to grow significantly.razgriz wrote:I think part of the non-furry appeal for House Pets is right in the name, pets. It doesn't place the animals in a high position in society, so it seems more 'normal' and not as far out there as say, an all anthro society... Pet owners would probably be more interested as they would make connections between the comic and what wild things their own pets do...

Because the furry fandom has a lot of different opinions going on from the inside and the outside! It takes a lot of thought to set everything straight. ^_^Brian wrote:You guys give this a ton of thought. It's very impressive.
