Housepets!

I don't really identify as a dog or anyting like that. I just like Corgis and figured it'd be fun to be a bit different and not pick a fox or wolf or some other really common fursona.

I find cat fursona being little hard to find than Dog, Wolf, Fox fursona.

I agree, I find that the majority of furry artwork is canine. However, feline art is more common than even rarer animals such as deer for example

As much as I love individuality, I settled on my fursona due to prior knowledge drawing canines

Canids are the most popular but cats are right after that.

YAY!!! That means I chose well!!!
*shot*

I've always been a cat person, so that's why I wanted Seth to be a cat. He was originally going to be black, but gray was easier to color

Cute furry pictures are like crack.
Give me more cute furry pictures!

how cute?
heee Cute? wow Cute? awww cute or *dead*cute?

It has to be really, really cute for me to like it.
So I guess dead cute. So cute it kills me.

I can't come up with anything cute, yet...
Obey Uncle Fox

Because creepers.

That is so awesome that it almost makes me want to become a furry.

My sentiments exactly.

I think it's just being silly, though. Trying to parody that famous picture, yaknow?

Now we need Rosie the Furry Riveter

I mean who could argue with a beard like that?

I am a furry and i am not quite sure but i do believe that a timber wolf fursona suits me just fine

I have some good news! My friend Jeff is now a member of the Furry Fandom!

Congrat! *furry Dance!*
My friend Jeff isn't

I must say in all my time here on the forum have I this theard not noticed too bad for me... but now i am here too and yes i am a great fan from furry fandom

I'm sorry, but I'm just not a furry. It's just something that I'm not.
I'm not worried about my image or the rest of the fandom, it's just who I am.

Well that's cool I guess. Mine is too.

And that's completely fine! There's no requirement to be a fur, obviously. Except for instances in which the individual is clearly joking, we do not allow "conversion" or "recruitment." Such things are flat-out creepy.

I was wanting to know if anyone could help me pick out a present for a friend of mine. My friend is a furry, her fursona is a tauran from WoW. Is there a good present that I could give her that relates to the furry fandom, or should I just get her something from WoW instead? By the way I am not a furry, and all I know about the fandom is from this forum, and from a documentary that painted them in a positive light on YouTube.

Jeff, you know I'm just joking and poking right?

I dunno, something tauren-related from WoW would be pretty good.

Ummmmm...........

I'm... going to go with...

Yes?

I guess if you count a guy who's fascinated by anthro characters. I have the typical golden fox persona.

That's exactly what a furry is, actually!

Why, yes, I do consider myself to be one
Although I don't have/haven't decided on a fursona.

Really? 0_0 I just went by Nostalgia Critic's definition.

My golden fox persona. I'm a mouse pixel artist so yeah.

yes i'm definitely a furry but i'm still new to this fandom and i don't really know what furries do, i mean i know that we convetions and stuff but those convetions were only held in the U.S as far as i know.so can anyone help me to understand more about furry fandom and what furries do? and also,can a cat be a fursona?

They just like furry stuff. Looking at art, playing video games, watching TV/movies, et cetera. Just like any media-based fandom.

And of course a cat can be a fursona!

thank you sleet!!
ok then i think my fursona is going be a cat

Non of my friends and family but my younger brother knows that I'm furry, he doesn't know what furry is but he only knows I have OC and like to dress and act like him. I'm. Really looking forward to be part of local furry community but I think it's going to be awkward to tell my parents where I'm going... I have hinted my mom that I want to hang around with someone who is intrested in animals and act like one. But she just took it as a joke.

I'm gonna be honest, there's not really a massive point to coming out with this. It's not really massively different from saying: "I'm interested in chess.".

Oh, there's 1 massive tip. Don't make it a big thing. If you have to say anything, don't make it seem like some life changing aspect. "Hey Mum, I'm going out tomorrow to a convention thing, hope you don't need me.". That is really all you need to say if you fancy heading to meet others at a fur con or whatever it's called. I suggest having some sort of IRL friend with you that you trust with you though. Depends on your age really. I'm 17 and my Mum still hates me going to a social gathering unless I have a friend there. If you do have a friend going with you, I imagine your Mum would be fine so long as you don't decide to tell her what this place is publicly known for. Chances are, everyone who doesn't spend a good few hours each day on the internet doesn't even know what a furry is, nor care what they are known for.

Please, never call telling people you're a furry "coming out." It's awkward, gives the wrong idea, and many members of another group of people find it offensive. I know I do.

My tip for telling people you're a furry is you don't. Just don't hide what you like. If you like animals, don't hide it. If you like cartoons, don't hide it. If someone puts two and two together and asks if you're a furry, don't be afraid to say "yes." But having a big to-do about confessing your participation in the furry fandom just makes people think it's a bigger deal than it really is. It's not a big deal at all.

Also, they're called "threads," not "boards."
