Welcome to Gaia! ::

I can't say I have a bunny really bouncing around inside like some do, but I enjoy quite a few aspects of the community to know that it leads way to a comfort zone of sorts.

I have always been semi-fascinated with the artwork. My art style is varied, but when I'm trying to relax and draw something quick and easy- it's usually anthro. I also love my stuffies and unfortunately would play with them even into my early twenties, talking to them and giving them human characteristics like names and what not. When I was little I'd take on the personality of an animal when playing pretend almost always- a mother hare, a sisterly kitten or what have you. Most of my friends wanted to be warriors or princesses, I was the little weirdo that wanted to be the anthro assassin that could transform into a panther or something.

I actually didn't know the slightest thing about the furry fandom until I was 19. I started dating a guy and noticed he had quite a few anthro images around his dorm and he loved dragons. I would do quite a bit of artwork for him too, and one day he asked me if I was a furry. After a bit of explaining and about a week of thinking I came to the conclusion that I probably was. First stint in the true fandom I was a little white domestic cat, but after really looking at my mannorisms and what not bunnies are the way to be smile That, or Jackalopes. But thats another story...

i have had a strange love of reptiles since i was 8
thats y

Ooooh, hey, I used to cry a lot too!
All the kewl kidz used to pick on me beacuse of that, calling me names like "Girl" or homo.

Today, and I s**t you not, all those kids are gay.

*deep sigh* I have always fealt a strong affinity to animals and a very strong connection to the forces of nature, and I did some soul searching and meditating and discovered my identity as an otherkin

I searched for a group of people to discuss spiritual matters with and found the furdom, they seemed like a free spirited group of people with a strong connection to animals and so I openly joined there ranks and instantly feel in love with the fandom, and now i'm here ^^

Hopes on what? o:

Puberty.

Well, when I was a little kid (like 4) we had this little dog and he was my best friend and I loved Jurassic Park. I've always liked dogs and dinosaurs, and I always had these little canine habits. Like, I would be so consciencious of people's body language and I used to run up the stairs on all fours and stuff like that. When I went into 2nd grade though (I was homeschooled for 1st) I was wearing freakin' ears and tails to school and growling at kids. xD

By the end of the year, I kind of grew out of that stuff and I turned into a "normal" kid. By middle school, I was really popular, even though I still loved dogs and dragons and stuff and drew all the time.

I only just found out about furries two years ago, and then I learned about borzois a year ago. I'm glad that so far, I've run into very little adversity about me being a furry.
