fursona species help

[Vox]

When i joined the fandom i pressured myself to come up with a fursona species quickly, and I went with a deer. Now i'm second guessing myself and i'm having trouble finding a species I can relate to, any help in narrowing it down would be welcome. ^^

Have you tried the quizzes on the net?

It isn't really something anyone can help you with... You have to find something you can relate to...

For example. I'm a Snow Leopard because.
1.) I like cats.
2.) I like the cold.
3.) I hate birds! Haha!
4.) I'm solitary for the most part...

The list goes on...

It didn't take much effort to come to the decision... It almost came to me instantly...

Name some character traits that you feel defines you, or perhaps your 'sona?

I suppose the deer was just a place holder. Traits I see as possibly helping in the search for a species for me are as follows... Friendly, I find rain calming, love to experience new things in all forms (places, people, books, etc...), I can eat a lot despite my small size/build, oh and I have long hair which girls around me often say they are jealous of ^^
Any input would be much appreciated no matter how minor and feel free to ask more questions if it helps.

Lol! Reindeer was probably a good pick!
Alternatively, a canine? Labrador? Friendly, likes water, long hair?

In the end. You HAVE to make your own decisions.

From that description I'm picturing a Friesian horse... the ones I knew loved the rain, and subsequent rolling in the mud.

My fursona species also started out as a placeholder: I initially chose it because Taurus is my zodiac sign and I've always been told that I fit that personality type very strongly (even though I've never actually believed in astrology). Whether that is a coincidence or a self-fulfilling prophecy, I'll never know.

Anyway, over time it developed into the obvious choice. The more I read about cattle, the more I realised that their demeanour matched my own pretty well. Patience, loyalty, trustworthiness, stubbornness, tenacity, realism and pragmatism are all values/aspects that are important to me, and they all happen to be either literally or symbolically linked to cattle.

And the fact that they love to eat.

Cheeky Sev. Cheeky

I try. *bows*

For the record, the only reason I made that joke is because Leeward has made her love of good food very apparent on this forum (and not for one second am I saying that that is a bad thing).

Also, I have no idea who you are, so I'll just put it out there that Miss Moo and I are best friends. I'm sure she'll find some way to poke fun at me very shortly.

It's the give and take banter here that has me canning often

[Leeward]

I was going to go with "catty" or "dotty", but either would have been a bit too mean.

[Sev]

How unoriginal.

[Effervescence]

I'm not one to talk about what species you should pick but I think a deer is a pretty cool option, you don't see many deer in the fandom and more often than not rare furs tend to be cooler in terms of talent/personality, really all that I've managed to garner thus far but I do hope you find some of my insight somewhat helpful.

[YoteFox]

Dunno what this might help, the reason my Sona is a fox, is because I love fox fursuits. Personally I don't relate to a fox at all, I just love the art and the fursuits of foxes and that made my mind up. Also red pandas make awesome fursuits.

[Sev]

Unless you have a bottomless hole, *ahem*, you're not much of a fox.

Other Vox, do you want to be a wild animal or a pet?

Wow I CANNOT imagine what you're trying to imply about foxes

Hi Vox, what about an Aardwolf? Aardwolfs are part of the hyena family. They are small, have long fur (especially around its neck), and eat a lot for their size - up to 250,000 termites in a night. They're entirely insectivorous!

They are quite unique and interesting creatures. I haven't met another fur with one as a fursona either.

Also, while you're considering a fursona change, why not consider a name change as well? Not that I am biased or anything, but VoxLupus was here first, and I - and other furs - often like to type out his name in short as Vox. It becomes confusing what with there being two Voxs and all.

I only met you that one time and the deer was/isn't a bad placeholder. If you really have to change, maybe look at a mongoose. A good size fit, look great and they're feisty, which is needed in a lot of games.

Evidently, that's not the only place that you're biased in your post...

One mangy Hyena is enough for any forum.
