Housepets!

So I don’t consider myself a furry (I don’t have a fursona, I don’t do roleplay, I don’t participate in furry forums, etc.), so does anyone feel the same?

I just don't define myself period. Though I will admit that when I do RP I have a preference towards using anthro characters but most of the time they are either wolves or foxes. Don't really have a fursona though I did make a character for a fan fiction I was doing a while back. And I only post on two forums with one of them being a forum for fire alarm enthusiasts so I can't say that I don't participate on furry forums, but its only half of the time.

I always figured if you're on this forum, you're sort of an honorary furry, and you can participate in whatever threads and forums appeal to you. I don't have a fursona (heck, I don't even have an avatar!), I don't roleplay, and so on just like yourself, triplrrr. Still, I feel very welcome and comfortable here, and I hope you do, too. Regards.

Back in the early-mid days we ran a poll a few times about who was a furry here, and we've sat at about a 3-1 split pretty consistently. (Most recent thread is here)

Housepets! is kinda furry-lite (if you will) so it tends to be very accessible to the general public. As such we have a wider audience here on the forums as well

Same here. The character you see in my avatar for the moment was always a stand-in as opposed to a fursona. I never understood how roleplay worked, so I don't bother with trying. Really, you aren't the only one, but we make it a point not to be exclusive.

You know it is easy to figure out how to roleplay if you are interested in learning at all. Just throwing it out there.

To be fair none of that is required to be a furry.

But there are lots of non-furry fans!

I'd call myself a furry. That's how I found out about this comic in the first place.
