Addressing the Deer Mount
Posted 3 years agoSo, I’ve been noticing some folks who are talking about the deer head mount in the background of my fursuit photo, here’s the link to that if anyone’s interested: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46338590/
I’m going to start off by saying that, yes, I am a hunter. So is my dad, but I want to stress one important fact.
I exclusively hunt birds, not deer. My dad is the deer hunter.
Here’s why.
1. I genuinely dislike hunting deer because I have a genuine personal connection with these animals. The amount of close encounters I’ve had with these beautiful animals make them incredibly important to me, so I find it difficult to think of hunting them. Even though I hunt birds, yes. Take that as you will.
2. Even if I did try to hunt them, the pressure of trying to kill them quickly and painlessly is just too much. With an animal as big as a deer, the chances of injuring the deer as opposed to actually killing them just breaks my heart, I can’t do it. Since birds are smaller, the chances of eliminating potential suffering is much greater.
3. It’s actually incredibly hard to hunt deer. Even if I did get the chance to have plenty of food, I haven’t seen a deer once on the few deer hunting outings I had with my dad. To hunt a deer is simply too difficult and time consuming for me, bird hunting is significantly different than deer hunting.
So, there you have it. I have my own opinions on hunting in general, but I’d rather have the discussion here rather than on the photo itself, if it can be helped.
I hope this is at least helpful with clarifying some things, I’m not going to apologize for something I believe can be enjoyed with respect and dignity. Nor will I lie to anyone, I know people aren’t stupid and I’m not going to treat anyone that way.

Hello, frens! :3
Posted 4 years agoWelcome to my page!
There’s nothing much to see here. I’m just a gal who likes collecting art for her OCs, and I put them here. Feel free to peruse my gallery! If you’re looking for something that’s just plain cute or has narrative attached to them, look no further! I enjoy fleshing out my favorite characters, and I plan on branching out and being a romantic sap, lol. Be warned! No one will be safe from the wholesome cuddles to come. >:3
I’m also very friendly, so feel free to chat! I don’t bite, I swear.

Finally admitting I’m Demisexual.
Posted 4 years agoWell, might as well write this out somewhere.
During my time here in the furry fandom, I’ve discovered a lot about myself. I’ve finally figured out why certain things don’t sit right with me, and while I do have artwork from the past that have the demisexual flag in it, I never really understood what that meant until now.
I just never really experienced sexual attraction with someone else before. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still hopelessly romantic and it’s not like I never experienced or don’t desire any sexual feelings at all- I just need a strong bond to really feel it. This is something very intimate to me, and I want to keep it that way.
So, yeah. This is me officially recognizing I’m demisexual! I’m much happier, now that I know what I want.
