6. What is a "personal furry"?

Definitions range widely, but the common answer seems to be that a
"personal furry" is someone's anthropomorphized animal "alter-ego". This
can mean a number of things:

a) It could be a "furry" character that the person roleplays on FurryMUCK
(or some other roleplaying environment/game) that the person considers
to be a representation of him/herself.
b) It could be an anthropomorphized animal character that represents the
person in cartoons or drawings.
c) It could be a person's "totem" or favorite animal type.

One's attachment to and attitude toward one's "personal furry" (if at all)
varies greatly.
