How I found, became, and living furry
15 years ago
I just had a good feeling in august 2009 and started to just try my hand at drawing cartoons from the classics like Loony Toons, Tiny Toon Adventures and classics before Animaniacs. I found this video around October about a Fifi La Fume Costume and saw a whole bunch of other characters. I was wondering who they were and discovered the fandom. For the time through November been personally researching about furry and on November 15th, 2009 I discovered that I just need to like the genre of anthropomorphic creatures to be a part of the fandom. I was so excited I pretty much shouted out "I'M A FURRY!" in a good voice and never shouted for a long time.
The reason I am a wolf was a trip to Brookfield Zoo in November 2004 5 months after the Mexican Gray Wolf was first brought there. I was only 11 years old and there were donate 5$ to help save the wolf in big metal bins. There was also a small toy that was given away to these donations. My nephew got a little bouncy light up ball and I actually recieved a little anthro wolf and have kept it in good condition over the years. I am certain my fursona is the wolf. I am just a simple gray wolf. Over the years I usually did projects about wolves. Just last year in Web Design class I based my website project explaining about the wolves and also telling a little about myself being a part of the wolf. The teacher actually adored my website because I was one of the only few students who actually tried to learn how to use code and Dreamweaver to create websites.
The time now though I am a furry and just waiting for my time to live my own way the way I want without anyone bugging about the situation. In school my few sketches are adored even by those that are in art classes. I do not explain about furry nor do I talk about it. I just say "I simply put the wolf's features on my body." As for this moment I am happy to type about how I am in the fandom and waiting anxiously for the future. I just know it is getting better and better.
Lately in school I also just ask around with other classmates and friends what animal they would be. My favorite response is from my best friend Adam saying he is a Scorpion as is his Zodiac sign. He sees himself as a learning and secretive creature. Come to think of it, if the scorpion is secretive and intelligent, it is the perfect creature for him.
