I suppose they’ll be wanting to put in litter boxes around campus before too long.  |

So fellow USMers……which cat would you dress up as if you were getting your feline on? Me? Well I’d go as Felix. I always was fascinated by his magic bag o’ tricks! |

I've always considered this term derogatory because it is my experience that furries are generally undomesticated and insufferable in all categories. I don't feel like I'm too "get off my lawn" here because I have a furry step-child that is close enough to me in age that has provided me unimpressive insight into the community. I don't see the problem with encouraging fantasy play. While I don't think that furries are the problem here specifically but rather they are a unique problem of their own, unrestrained feral behavior from kids at school that discourages attendance of other children is bad and should be addressed accordingly. The furry community generally seems to be heavy in the adult quadrant on their anthropomorphize of animals and relationships as they role play with others. Whether one is broadcasting and imposing adult proclivities onto unwilling participants or is a child with poor boundaries while channeling their inner Fido or whoever, this is not okay and someone needs to call animal control, in any form..Guidance, discipline, etc. I've never met an adult who is active in the furry community that I liked because they won't shut up about it. Apologies to any that I have met that don't do that, but stereotypes are there for a reason right? At the end of the day I don't feel like kids should get lumped in the category because they have a chance for redemption before it's too late and they don't know any better (yet), but biting and hissing people as a social behavior doesn't really translate well to the rest of the sane humans that wish to operate in a more normalized manner. I don't really like the spillover from the adult aspect of it into kids. While they may or may not pick up on that particular part, they do pick up the poor boundaries that don't exist as that within the furry community and apply them to as normal parameters everywhere else which will inevitably lead to.....burs in the fur I guess.  |

I support litter boxes in addition to our public restrooms for these people because I'm pretty sure they'll retract their identity claws pretty hard back into being human enough so they can use a normie toilet. If one of these folks is down with exclusively using a litter box they earned true cat status and get mad respect for going the distance. |

But yeah I don't think I'm willing to die on Litter Clay Hill. |

Hey Larry  Sometimes, I think that I'm a "talking dog." (You're the first person I've admitted that to.) I like cats, alright, too. They're stealthy.  |

Yes Kronk, but do you go all out in full attire? Enquiring minds want to know. |

Hey Larry I forgot to answer your question. I guess, if I was "getting my feline on," I would go as "Tony the Tiger." I always liked him. I could get a fake chest and elevator shoes and fake muscular arms and a ..... L.E.D.---You'd have to get fake fur, too. The only place you have any hair, is up your nose. kronk---That's not nice. L.E.D.---Being a relic is not nice, either. kronk---Ugh! |

Hey Kronk, L.E.D., any bets on what Hekler would be? My money is on GRUMPY cat……… |

Hey Larry I think that Hekler, being the hardcore Canadian that he is, would almost have to choose the "Canadian Lynx." (Lynx canadensis)......"Lynx have excellent eyesight; they can spot a mouse up to 250 feet away! Interestingly, this trait is reflected in myths from several cultures. The lynx is a popular figure in Greek, Norse, and North American mythology—it sees what others can't and is skilled at revealing hidden truths." (Sheila Brown) L.E.D.---Who is "Sheila Brown?" kronk---Some chick that lives in the woods, and knows a lot about cats. L.E.D.---Dig it. |

Wow! That sounds like Hekler because he probably only sees as far as his next meal. I didn't realize " Garfield " was part of Greek, Norse and N.American mythology either because Lasagna originated in Itlay. Learn something new everyday. |

Hey Larry I've been rambling on about cats and I guess that I missed the whole point of this post. What we have here, is kids dressing up to look like a cat and acting like a cat, too? Man, I tell you, if I would have shown up at school looking and acting like a cat. Well, it wouldn't have been pretty. I would have caught it from "all" sides, that's for sure. I'm sure there's a time and place for a human to dress and act like a cat, but school might not be that place. Heck, I had to get a haircut twice a month, whether I needed it or not. Shirt tail better be in the pants and you "sure" better not pass notes, when one of the football coaches is teaching geography. |

Well Kronk, long ago back in my junior high school days, there were those that were pre-existing understudies for a play yet to be performed on Broadway….need I say more? |

Hey Larry Would those be the "not quite ready for prime time players?" I was in a play, once. Can't remember the name, but it was the one about a girl with incredibly long blond hair. She was stuck in a tower and she let her hair down so some dude could climb up and rescue her. I always wondered what happened when the guy got in the tower with her. I figured that "both" of them would be stuck. I pointed this out to my speech teacher and she told me be quiet and stand straight.....I played "the tower." |

In my case it was the “ Saga of Dead Dog Gulch.” No dog , or any other animal was harmed during the performance of this sixth grade play. I’m still awaiting my academy award all the many years later…. |

...I tried going out in a furry suit and the cops came and made me put my clothing back on. That was back in the day long before this fad really took off. I was a pioneer of the movement.  |
