How did I become a furry?
Well.. first off, I've always been fond of animals and was rarely ever without a pet cat growing up.
When watching movies or shows when I was little, I would always be more in favor for the ones with animals. (The Rescuers, Rock-a-Doodle, Robin Hood, The Great Mouse Detective, The Lion King, Talespin, Chip n Dale: Rescue Rangers (
), Quack Pack, Goof Troop, Cats Don't Dance, etc)
I guess my realization of liking such cute creatures came when I first saw Cats Don't Dance. I was 10 at the time and thought of how neat they were.
I never really thought of actually looking into furries until about five years ago when my bf (now fiance) told me that he liked furries. Since then my liking and awareness of furries have grown. I feel if it wasn't for him, I don't think I would have cared for them so much now.
So, up until a few days ago I never really thought of browsing around for a furry community.. so far.. I'm glad I did.
edit: .. can't forget Gummi Bears, Darkwing Duck, and Gargoyles ;D
