  • Welcome to the club, and well-met! Whether you're a founding member or you just joined, we'd love to know more about you! Do you consider yourself a furry, and if so, what was your journey to deciding that? Do you have a fursona? What do you hope to get out of being part of this club? Feel free to mention anything else you'd like your clubmates to know about you as well. :)

  • Hi, I’m Bastion, I guess you could say I’m a recent furry but I’ve had some relation to the furry fandom for a couple years, It started as the pandemic rolled around and I had more time just to be online. That’s when it hit me that I’m probably a furry. I have a fursona (pictured below) Anyway, Hi!

  • Now that I won't be double-posting, let me talk about my journey so far. I've known about furries for some time, but it's only in the last few years that I was really introduced to it by a member of this community (who seems embarrassed every time I give him credit for it, lol)...maybe it was just the fact that he was posting furry art regularly, but I really got into it. It was amazing how much time and effort artists put into it, and how much personality the characters have because of it. And it kinda went from there.

    I don't have a fursona at the moment...so far nothing has really felt right to me, but I imagine if/when I develop one they'll be teal or lime green or some shit, because I seem to like those colours in the art, lol.

    @Gausburg: Hey there! It's nice to know more about you...as someone who doesn't have a fursona at the moment, I'm curious how you came to yours. How did it come along, and how did you know it was the right one for you?

    Hi! Mostly it was just luck, I came across the species randomly and really liked the design and lore so I picked it, I didn’t really think about if it was the right one for me but I have a strong connection to the character so I think I made the right choice :3

  • I've been a furry for a little over a decade, now. Sometime in 2011 is when I accepted it, I suppose. I haven't ever really been part of the furry community, as it were. I just like panthers a lot and appreciate the art. ;)

  • So, as I've mentioned a few times, I found my love for furry beings from my love of the film Zootopia, and my subsequent dive of reading a bunch of fanfic (some of which definitely goes rather deep into the relationship between the two main characters ;) ). I have since found enjoyment from a variety of other sources; comics (TwoKinds), video games (Rimworld), and of course other TV shows and films.

    I have also never been a part of the furry community, per-se, and I have yet to make a Fursona, though I'm equally intrigued as to the possibility of making one. Going to give it a fair bit of thought and research before I settle on anything though.

    Nice to meet y'all :)

    I suppose I've never been part of the community either...it's all contained here. :P

    I'm curious, what led you to like panthers so much?

    Nice to meet you too, even though we've known each other for almost 10 years now. :P

    I'm not sure. They're just silky smooth and like big cute void kitties.

    Yes, I realize they'd eat my face off, but it would be the cutest death imaginable.

    Just to give my five pence, I think you would suit a feline fursona

    Can’t say really, it just feels right, it might be your personality but if so that was subconscious.
