Put up your art like me, get animal related items like tails to hang up, get pictures of animals, print out pictures of furries. I do all of the above and put them in my room.

just act the part. but be careful not to push it onto people, that drives people away. at school furry jokes are told often ( usually at/about me) find other furs near you. do art stuffs. be active. if/when you can conventions. listen to podcasts, go on sites, etc. i tend to relate everything in one for or another so its kinda automatic for me.

I would try to find other furs but I do not really know how I go about doing this. And the closest con is either a 6 hour drive or 2 hour flight. And I doubt my parents would take me XD.

Well for the finding other furs. There are multiple ways. Search for hints that another is a fur, a tail, an eared hat, anthro art, etc. or you can do what I did. Let them find you, this however requires gossip to be spread. I tell one friend, he tells another, etc until the entire robotics club knew. Then those conecteed but not in the club knew ( friends and such). Until eventually one found me. Then less than a month ago. He found another one and so we 3 encountered. Then I know of a possible 4th from info from a friend. So either hunt em down ( however they may hide it. Ya may need to show your involvement first) and if you let them find you they may not come to you ( scared they may be wrong) etc. so no guaranteed way but I've found 2 so far soooo...

As for cons. I've got one close but I can't go due to money. And to find others you can use IFPL or pounced to find local furs or groups. ( with a google search like : furry group Portland).

Also for in your life, don't wear the stuff to school because of dress code issues, you might get into trouble, but wear it in public if u r comfortable, I'm making a tail soon. Fyi, if you want me to make you a tail, I'll tell you what it will cost total. I don't want any profit so you aren't giving ME any money, just money for supplies. And specify things like color and size if ur up for it. Also, send me a colored sketch of it so I am sure what to do for you. Pm me if you have any questions. I'm a beginner so it might take a while, but it will come when I finish. I promise it's gonna look great.

You could try to start a mini furry project. That really gets things going!
When my bf and I started our own, we had to look up, print, find and ask about furry art so we could make sure it benefited the project. ^^

You could put plushies around your room. I have a Kangaroo plushy that I got for free sitting on the table next to my bed, and various other plushies around my room. Animal figurines might help too I guess?

I agree with the others; pictures, plushies and so on :D
For a while I had a wolf-themed room so I had wolf bed sheets, posters and so forth; I painted a full moon around my ceiling light and then had plushies and a wolf-fur-like throw over my bed :3

If you really wanna go hardcore, there's pet beds and so forth you could sleep in :P May I also recommend the furry radio station Furocity Radio? They play rock music and stuff; it's a website where you listen to it live (like any old radio station) and they also have an app :D
