been considering making a proper fursona recently, but i’m not sure what species(‘s) to pick. how did you pick yours? did it have to do with aesthetics, personality, or some kind of connection to that animal? all three? tell your story :)

    Me too. If so its gonna be a felid. Because of their introverted but still attached nature. And relaxed attitude. And careful curiosity. Fierce independence despite being very dependent. Matches with my personality. Probably going to be based of the guy in my avatar. Who I think is a lion (and he is originally named Coloned Leopold so a pretty big hint that he is). He is taken from a Duck Avenger comic I was a big fan of. I might make him more cat-like if I do, to distance myself a bit from Disney’s copyright. Make it my own.

    Probably never gonna get around to it, knowing myself.

      same! i’m thinking probably just some kind of basic domestic cat, though maybe something bigger, just because i’ve pretty much always liked cats. i don’t find myself particularly relating to to their stereotypes though, which makes me a little hesitant, but it really shouldn’t matter should it.

      honestly though 😭 i completely relate. i’ve been “thinking” about this for like 3 years at this point hahaha
