AS and 'beast mode'/Furry?

Post Reply New Topic

I've noticed that while growing up, I tended to copy some behaviors. Not merely from humans, either. I can 'rowr' like a cat, or growl, or some of those other things, especially since I owned a cat for a short time. It has gotten to the point where I wouldn't say I was 'furry' but that part of my brain thinks I'm a cat. When I'm startled I may automatically "ROWR!" and if I'm sleepy, my 'beast mode' takes over and is alert, especially while driving.

Now, I'd like to know, how many other AS people find themselves copying animal behavior? And to what extent does AS lead to or contribute to someone discovering their interest in things relating to "Furry"?

I understand that. I've been known to growl, purr and mimic other noises of cats. It's almost known that when I yowl, it's a sign that I'm pretty angry.

I'm VERY good at mimicking cat noises, and often randomly meow I can also meow louder than I can scream!

heck, sometimes I greet people with a 'erowr'. And sometimes to get the attention of family members. Then they know it's me.

Yeah I frequently use animal postures. I like to hold myself in a crouch on all limbs like a cat hunting...Go figure.

I also like making cat like noises. Used to do it a lot as a kid, less now.

Yiff in hell furries

Oh. In my case. I guess when I was younger-but I mimicked mecha more often when younger (AT-ST walkers or Gundams, etc). Still do in some cases.

The nice thing about a small family where everyone is either an Aspie or a cat is it's OK to walk around meowing for no particular reason.

i purr when i'm happy, mrowr when i'm needy, and have conversations with my cats.

sometimes i speak english. sometimes i speak cat. it's a pretty useless conversation since they don't understand the meaning of the words i say and i can't really hold a conversation in cat so much as mrowr back mockingly.

i think they get it close enough though.

Not furry. Therian. *Shrug*

But I do have some animal mannerisms; and speech. Mostly feline and canine, with some rodent/rat, and the odd whatever else. I growl, hiss, mrr, brrrt, sometimes/frequently yawn with my mouth wide open and the tongue curling (even curling out somewhat at times), often wag my leg (in place of that missing tail), ect, whatever.

I don't mimic animal movings, but I like to copy their sounds. Latest and upmost, of cats, to whom I'm allergic.

I'm not using them in my daily life, but I can stop in the middle of a street trying to comunicate with them, which is mostly crazy.

I do really miaow, in my way.

As a child, I used to purr. I can also almost chirp and make the "owl sound", but that last with my hands, it's not so worthy

I don't do things like mimic cats and such, but am a furry.


Yiff in hell? Well, if all furries are going there, then it wouldn't be as bad down there!
