I chewed on things. Not pencils, but most anything else. My mate mostly, but I can tear through a pack of gum in record time, and if I don't have some sort of gummy candy around at all times I start to get stir crazy.

My favorite thing to do with gummy worms is to let them sit in an open package for a few days, that way they get nice and chewy.

I always used used to have a teething problems, in which I'd even ask my mother to buy me dog toys so I could chew freely. And not only that, but as a child, I used to ask my mom feed me in a bowl on the floor like a dog.. No joke.. Only now as I come to grips with being a furry, do I realized why CX

And like, the past year or two or so when I realized I was a wolf basically, I move my ears [however unnoticeable]. So if some one was yelling at me or I was in trouble, my human ears would shift back a bit.

And as I told my close friend, I live my live in the pack mentality of a wolf. I am a dominant person who wishes to be alpha, but I also understand that I should obey the alphas, my parents.

At various stages in my life, I secretly developed a soft spot for certain cartoon animals, especially e.g. Chip the Cereal Wolf.

My sister and i always loved animals as kids and often made homemade tails made of extra fabric my mom had and coat hangers, and chased our dog around the back yard.

Now my sister is just getting out of vet school and me business school, but when we find time to hang out or go to the gay clubs or something fun like that i always remember the two of us as kids running around the back yard with our sloppily made tails barking at our dog. hehe

We might have grown up but its obvious our interests stayed the same. Only i lacked the devotion and dedication to become a veterinarian (i definitely inherited my dad's unrelenting procrastination of everything), also i dont think i could ever put down any cute critters.

Spent a lot of time in the forest watching animals, wondering what it would be like to be one. I got to be the mascot in high school, the idea has been in the back of my mind (mostly in a dark, dusty corner) ever since. If a mascot/fursuit was sighted, it would gather my attention. On business trips, I would pick hotels that carried Nickelodeon so I could watch The Angry Beavers.

This makes me think of the scene from The Sword In The Stone where Merlin turns Arthur into all different kinds of animals. I always loved that scene. Since I wasn't lucky enough to have a wizard for a mentor, though, I also had to settle for spending a lot of time "watching animals, wondering what it would be like to be one." In fact... I still do.

The Sword in The Stone may or may not be where my early onset of an affinity for transformation came from

I had tons of plushies, pretended I was a cat with my mom's cat, chewed whatever I could, make tails out of bed sheets and towels. I also watched alot of animal shows and cartoons, favorite being Swat Kats and when I was a kid I thought one of the cat pilots was really cute

caninesrock · « **Reply #59 on:** April 13, 2011, 02:39:35 pm »

I watched and still watch animal-themed movies, cartoons, anime,etc.
I play(ed) games where I can be an animal.
I howl(ed) like a wolf sometimes for fun and growl(ed) when I didn't like someone.
I draw/drew mostly animal-themed art.
I wrote animal-themed fictions.

I howled at the moon alot (still do) and I drew a heck of a lot of anthros, because for the past five years I've been addicted to the Silverwing series, and they had a tv show that was drawn in the furry style

Every time I saw a movie or read a story where the main characters were animals and heroic, I would fall in love with the hero and fantasize about being the character or with the character. The first one I remember was Watership Down. Others were Plannet of the apes, Star wars "wookie", and too many others to list.

Storm Fox · « **Reply #64 on:** April 22, 2011, 04:01:13 pm »

I’ve always been known to growl as a display of dissatisfaction or anger.

And I have been drawing animals of all kinds since I was about nine, maybe ten.

Also, I may or may not have had a milk-bone or two or ten in my day.

I can't really think of any furry-ish things that I did when I was younger, except for the fact that there was a time in which I had a strong desire to become a wolf. Then I later became a fox furry.

Furry things...

When I was younger, before my astronaut phase hit (and I wore my snowsuit outside in July to simulate a spacesuit...) I always wanted to pretend we were anthropomorphic cats. With superpowers. XD Nobody else ever did, though, so I kind of let that go.

xWinterStar · « **Reply #68 on:** May 08, 2011, 09:47:38 pm »

I always drew anthro art and had a fursona. When I discovered furry I just fit right in

When I was little, I LOVED animals, and everything I read, or watched on tv, had to involve some kind of animal, LOL. I would walk on my knees and hands and pretend to be a dog, bark, and eat the dogs treats when my mom wasn't looking

I guess it had to do with being surrounded by pets since birth. I also had a fursona, I was a superhero dalmation XD

I grew up pretty isolated from other kids (and people in general) and I was animal mad. I spent 100% of my time being an animal of some kind all day and all night. Because this went on for the first 13 years of my life it just kinda stuck!
I always loped instead of running, made various animal noises (growling, hissing, surprised squeaks), ran up the stairs on all fours, nuzzled and climbed on people lots. Plus I used to bite a lot and chew everything in reaching distance. And when I bought an extra large cushiony dogs bed I slept on that for years

I thought I'd grow out of it but I think most of it is so habitual that I cant really stop haha

PupLilith17 · « **Reply #71 on:** June 21, 2011, 01:40:33 pm »

I liked furry anime.
I would growl, howl, meow, woof at other creatures or people.
I liked movies where the main characters were not human originally.
I always admired other animals, and wondered how it would be to be the for one day.

I explore the woods near my house and try to be really stealthy all the time, also when me and my freinds play paintball i will stalk them around before going in for the kill. And i love climbing trees!
