What Is a Furry?

Understanding the meaning of “furry.”

Participation varies widely: some people simply appreciate the art, while others build detailed characters and attend conventions.

Fursona Basics

A simple visual of designing a fursona.

A fursona is your personal character—your “furry persona.” It can reflect your personality, aesthetics, or simply be a fun alter-ego. Many people start by choosing a species (fox, wolf, cat, etc.), color palette, and name, then commission or create reference sheets and avatars.

  • Species: Pick what you feel drawn to—real animals or hybrids.
  • Palette: Choose colors that suit your vibe or brand.
  • Backstory: Keep it short and friendly for social profiles.
