I NEED A SPECIES!

General
Hi guys! Quick and to the point here. I'm sorry for spamming you all with journals lately. :P
I'm writing something for NaNoWriMo this month, and I've hit an impasse 400 words in. I want to make this a furry story (for various reasons), but I've just realized I have no clue what species anybody is so far.
So, I need a species. I don't want to make the progtagonist a fox (definitely not red fox at least), because they're just SO overdone... I'm steering away from wolf as well, because I do that too much.
So yeah. Throw things at me! Lists of things if you feel like!

I've been mulling that one around regardless... We'll see.
Another one to ponder on tonight. Good suggestion.

Besides, anthropomorphism almost completely forbids the possibility of realistic winged flight.... Or maybe that works in favor of the idea. I have no idea!
But it's something I will definitely use someday, if not in this then later...
That aside, in the name of pure randomness, *giraffe*!
Yeah, okay, that's random, I know (blame a featurette where the builder pointed out he needed faux fur for part of his construction). Probably a bit too unserious there.
In all seriousness.... what's the character like? Gentle and compassionate? Complete asshole? Top? Bottom? Out going? Shy? All these help narrow the possibilities (in my opinion).
But yeah. Character is going to be outgoing, adventurous, and somewhat mischevous.
Cheetah or Tiger maybe?
Well hey, if I have to spend a whole month writing a novel about something, I'm gonna be picky about it!
