I know everyone has already exploded (hopefully with joy) over Zootopia and probably seen the movie many times; I may be late to the party but I wanted to talk about my Zootopia feels.

With Shakira's "Try Everything"blasting in my ears, I can tell you that after my recent second viewing of the movie, that I feel nothing short of inspired.

I'm pretty grey in the muzzle as far as furries go these days, and for a long time I thought there was nothing really incredible in terms of furry creations in the world-- with a few notable exceptions like Blacksad and Lackadaisy.

But Zootopia-- god, it had me crying tears of joy. It brought me right back to the core of my love for furries, the wonderment of "Who would I be in that world?" The absolute enjoyment of character and setting, of design and creation, and the constant questions in my mind of "How would they-?" "When did those two meet?" "What did they eat before?" "Who built that?" and more.

Zootopia reminds me of where I began. Early Disney. Early cartoons. Early stories like Tawny Scrawny Lion where the bunny feeds the lion carrot soup and fattens him up. When I believed in talking animals, when I loved them, when I wanted to fly on a magic bed to the Isle of Naboombu with King Leonidas.

I want to write. I want to create. I want to, any way I can, ADD MORE to Furry the way Zootopia has. I hope it inspired you all in similar fashion.

With joy,
Karis
