Changing a Fursona

[aimao]

This is a really good question, one that I was also wondering about because I was literally just introduced into this entire furry realm just a few days ago. Brand new! Haha! And instead of thinking about it deeply and reflecting for a while, I just jumped into this forum immediately to check things out for myself...and came up with my current fur. So of course, I do wonder if I should have thought about it extensively before even starting, but...too late for that now, isn't it?

You can always change your fursona. When you no longer want to, then youve found the right one

I agree with Macid

At the moment i'm practicly living three seperate lives, and each mindset has formed it's own fursona. So for me it more depends on if one of my lesser sides is incharge as to what i am

i've slightly changed my fursona....i used to be a boring generic red fox....now i'm a meerfox...half meerkat half fox....as Fox was the first thing i went with when coming into the fandom some 7 years ago...but my friend seen me more as a meerkat then a fox....but  I had the natural red hair for a fox....and i liked the idea of being a meerkat....so...i did the best of both worlds...a hybrid!! Meerfox  (Suricata vulpes)

that's the only chagne i've done to my fursona....because my fursona is me...I am my fursona

my close (RL) friend Miss Black Sheep did my current avatar for me...it's a cropped image of a badge I had commissioned for Furnal Equinox this year...(Awesome con BTW..met my fave male artist ZEN...and my future fursuit maker FirestormSix)

but back on topic...in my POV i see no problem with changing one's fursona.

Personally, I see no problem in changing a fursona, or having multiple fursonas for that matter. Of course, that's probably only because I altered my fursona slightly just yesterday, and I use about 6 other fursonas depending on the situation. So, yeah.

I don't see a problem in altering your fursona, but having multiple fursonas is out of the question for me. Maybe a few different RP characters, but not more than one fursona for me!

To me, it's just an "avatar" in the fandom for fun or expression. I change it whenever I feel like it, and it helps keep people who take it way too seriously off my back, as well as the idiots who pick their friends based off of them.

same I have 1 and only 1 fursona....and even in RPs I use my fursona usually....but I  adapt my fursona to what the RP is about....like my friend is making a furry RPG based on our local furry forum starring the members of the forum...the project itself is jsut starting...the game is called "The Unyiffables: An Ontario Furs tale" or something like that...and everyone on the forum will have a paw in at making it....andsome of us (including me)  are going to be in the game...it's gonna be epic.

Same here. If its a Pokesona RP, I just alter her story a bit, and say she's a Houndoom. Its not that it's a permanent change, its just that version of them.

hmm...for me, id not want to altery my fursona to drasticaly..i mean ...by definition a Fursona is a alternate furry persona...a persona of you.
and for me...my fursona accurately depicts what i feel inside..spunky, colorful, exotic and with the both aspects of a feline and a canine...she is me.

i suppose somewhere down the road a person may "outgrow" there fursona, and i did too..once upon a time i had a neko that was me, but i no longer felt she was me after some time.
so i tottaly support changing or making a new fursona....just i dont see it like a interchangeable outfit...its part of you, not an accessory. you need to bond to your fursona. and changing it based on mood or impulse seems a little....cold to it dont you think?

i get having RP fursonas or other characters you made...but just flip flopping between multiple ones cause "you feel like it" seems a lil like cheating on your main 'sona.
im a Kaprika gal all the way

Well to me a my fursona is me or reflects who i am it just came one day without much thought or effort i just new that was perfect. however not every one is like that and may need alter theirs for a while till they find that perfect match kinda like a puzzle piece. I have however seen on another forum some one who would change on a day to day basis while i may think that maybe extreme it fit him so for every person it will be different. I always have had to keep to myself not able to express much outwards so in way iv had 21 yrs to examine for myself who i am so i got a bit of a head start without realizing it.

My fursona is developing as I sort of rediscover myself. It's like being a whole new person and you have to grow up!
