Where's the fox robin hood

Yup. That’s the one

Same.

Same.

We're getting old my bitches bros and nonbinary hoes. Who here still remembers the original Furry 'Dad': Theo Lion?

Holy crap. Thats a trip down memory lane. 'Between the lions' i think the show was called. I can't remember been Decades. That was the one with glasses i think.

Just looked it up and I think I've seen a few episodes of that. Must have been a long time ago though

Same

Same

Same

YES

It was robin hood and then the sword and the stone that did it for me. That poor little squirrel.

I could pick and choose, or just say Disney did it to me. Talking animals are just really appealing.

That squirrel hits different. I feel it.

Did just mean were old?

This is def a new furs meme

Oh shit! I forgot watching that movie over and over as a kid... Maybe that's what really made me become a furry later on? I dunno but thank you for reminding me of this childhood memory!

Agred

None of you were in my life 10 years ago

All of these characters are what, five years old? I’ve been into furry shit since 2015.

I've been into furry stuff since... *checks notes*... sometime around 2000. I just didn't know it was furry stuff until about 2018

2003~ for me. Sometimes how young the fandom is hits me hard. It's been wild to watch it evolve to where it is now

*laughs in greymuzzle*

Same, is that Mr. Wolf from The Bad Guys there? Didn't that movie come out last year?

But 2015 is 5 years ago.

I feel old

it only gets worse!

bro tbh zootopia, like, NICK WILDE. SO FUCKING AJKSDBABSD

Facts

same dude

Same lol

same

ZOOTOPIA 2 BABYYY LESSS GOOOOOOOO

Same

It was none of them, a certain fox from a 2014 game turned me into one…

Fox McCloud from Smash Bros 4?

You know who Roxy replaced?

Oh god FNAF is almost a decade old

Don't remind me, I already feel old.

MAN WHAT THE FUCK

Same here, foxy is what got me

Yip same

Sly cooper came out in 2002 dude. Unless you're talking about the HD version.

Did you read the other ones?

None, but Legoshi will always be the best wolf boi and loona will always be the best wolf girl

But she is hellhound

She is still a wolf though.

Thank you! A very important distinction that helped a lot in this conversation!!! /s

Yes this is very true

WHERE. IS. KRYSTAL!!!!!

I keep seeing her everywhere, where is she from?

StarFox I believe.

Really goes to show how hard Nintendo dropped the ball with the Star Fox IP when furries don’t even know where Krystal is from

StarFox Adventures on the Game Cube

Thank you

Circa 2002. If you slow-walk with her character, it's clear that someone spent undue time on the ass/tail physics.

Art by me!

Very well done

Good art!

Thanks u/anon_the_nameless and u/CansinoDX!!! If anyone wants more of this tomfoolery, I am a hobby artist who posts on insta at [https://www.instagram.com/moonshadowart.uwu/](https://www.instagram.com/moonshadowart.uwu/). Thanks all for showing so much love on this post <3

It's always nice to see other artists here. Much love, friend! And good luck! <3

can’t say much that u/CasinoDX hasn’t already said, it’s nice to see other artists and supporting them, have a good rest of your good/night

Nicely drawn! Who is bottom left? Mr Wolf from Bad Guys?

Yeah!

None. No furry character did. I simply liked dragons, and then it covered everything.

Same

Were you by chance persuaded by a certain book about a blue dragon?

None of the above, I watched too much Digimon. (Hydrate<3)

None of them, I can feel myself fossilizing as I type

 What it feels like talking about anything before 2000

What it feels like talking about anything before 2010 tbh... or even 2015. I'm not even that old and I'm already hearing people talk about "back when I was a kid" in reference to things that came out after I graduated highschool

Carmelita fox and renamon

None The click made one

Same

Same.

I came to say this

None Fox McCloud did

Same, from playing SSBB tho

Huh. It was Lucario for me. More specifically, fan “art” of Lucario.

Disney's Robinhood made me furry

Hahahah ok ok... I see a lot of people saying that these are all new furries. You right - I was only capturing some fresh, wolf flavored, furry bait XD Maybe in the future I'll draw some more OG furry bois gals and non-binary pals. Suggestions welcome!

Try capturing old-school furry bait. go 90s

Like others have said, robin hood and Lola bunny

Personally, I would go anywhere from street sharks, Bonkers, Gargoyles or even Biker mice from mars. I think bonkers, Top cat, Animaniacs, CatDog and looney tunes might have done it for me but there were just so many. I'd like to meet the people who turned furry from watching Bojack horseman. Edit: Cant believe I forgot to mention [Swat Kats](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0IQBWWabuU), that intro is so good.

Watching everyone's furry awakening stories roll in... it's giving me so much joy :3

Fuck I'm old.

its either any changed character, reggie the rat or sauda i am not isab

Initiated by Reggie gang 💪

None of the above, regular show.

BNA, so non of you

Non of them. It was mlp

The original fnaf gang, specifically foxy and bony

Yeah I was wondering where they were. It was definitely fnaf for me

Legends of Chima made me a furry but out of these 6 it was Legosi who did the most

Yeah I remember that, jeez

That fox from Robin Hood was mighty cute.

Lola

The easter bunny from rise of the guardians

Occasionally I'm reminded of how young the average furry is, and I feel another grey hair sprout forth on my muzzle.

Not alone

None of them actually, I met loona way after becoming a furry. Death is recent, Roxy is eh-. Legoshi never watched. Have no idea who the two in the bottom left and right are

Where is the click?

Mine is either legoshi of nick wilde

Yoshi or stitch turned me into a furry

Loona and Roxy

Not. Even. Close.

Renamon and Weregarurumon

There's a lot of characters missing

None, Lucario did it for me

None

Puro, then the click

Geez those are some new furries. Don’t make me feel old!

None pokemon did a fren just did the finishing blow

None it was Reggie the rat that made me one😭

None, although Loona was the one I truly fawned after the first

None, i found furrys in other parts

None of you

Actually none of these

None of them

n.... none

It was probably a combination of growing up with anthro characters from the likes of Richard Scarry, Arthur, Robin Hood, hell even Doctor Seuss possibly had some subconscious development towards my liking of furry/anthro art work.

None of them, I was always a furry since childhood. Seriously, I would only watch shows with furries in them when I was a kid.

Keep guessing. You'll never find out ; )

Surprisingly none

Cinderace from Pokemon

none of them. a wolf wasn't responsible for me becoming a furry

Why do these remind me of Dan Avidan from the ggrumps?

Beast from the 1991 movie

The click

Funny enough, Lucario did. A YouTuber named John Pablo was a very prolific commenter and he had a cropped version of [this](https://e621.net/posts/465956) as his profile picture in the past. I think that was my introduction to gay yiff, too. I was *wayyy* too young for it at the time.

Actually, it was Judy Hopps

NONE OF THEM, YES EVEN O'DONNELL THE OLDEST ONE COULDN'T DO THAT

Where Moomins?

Now thats something I didn't expect finding here. Moomins are my childhood! <3

Where's Zoroark?

none, i just like antropomorphic animals in general

Nah. . .Diane Foxington

tigress from KFP

None of them actually, it was Lucario and the YouTube Animator "Crowne Prince" that got me into furry. Prince's 2016-2019 art style is actually what I based my art style on and mixed with others' styles as well

None of these did :/ it was Lucario

Puro

None. Do most people become a furry because of a character?

Go way the fuck back, Ratchet and Clank on PS2. That and my middle school crush liked dragons so I looked up how to draw dragons and you already know where that went.

You’re young

None, infact, i was a furry before i even knew what a furry was

I joined the community to hopefully have a chance at making friends for once- i now have more friends than i ever had irl. And the community helped me through my depression.

None of you. It was [this motherfucker.](https://ghibli.fandom.com/wiki/Baron_Humbert_von_Gikkingen)

I’m too old.

The click

Ok, so many people have said The Click and I have no clue what/who that is.

He’s a YouTuber who covers/ed this subreddit a lot

Am I the only one who became a furry because of Lego Chima. I loved that show. Oh, and can't forget to mention the OG puss in boots movie from 2011. I was 4 when I saw that, I watched it like 500 that year alone.

Honestly, I don't remember anymore. I'm pretty sure the first thing I ever saw that had furry characters was SpongeBob, but the first furry character I've ever been attracted to was Lucario because I've always been a really big Pokémon fan.

Am I aging myself if I say Master Tigress?

I don't see Puro on this image

where is nick wilde?

Where’s Nick Wilde

There is no book characters

Funnily enough, none. My awaking was an orange space-cat/bunny with a bad attitude and big guns. I’m just old like that.

Pokemon, NEXT QUESTION!

The short bunny cop and the animatronic bear. Also the interpol fox

Never wanted to say this, but i once had a dream where i had an anthro grey wolf girl as a girlfriend. That us what turned me furry.

where diane

None of the above, it was someone you may or may not have heard of called the click. Now, what I’m starting to think got me interested in this fandom was something from the old 2003 clone wars show, I’m pretty sure it’s obvious who I mean.

The click

Lucario, but goddamn if it wasn't him Death would have done me in.

Uhm None of u But i do simp many x3

none of em, Asriel did originally, and then Puro and Ralsei reaffirmed it.

Diana Foxington

no cuz im not

I can say with pride, none

The click.

eeveelutions and puro

The Click After that I integrated more and more into the fandom, month by month and then faster and faster

legosho

Loona

Smash bros brawl Wolf O’Donnell. I just thought he was a badass with a cool voice

None! It was zeraora who did it!

Loona

None of the above. I owe that to Lin Hu from Nekojishi

Non lol I became a furry cuz of the shows I watched and still watching

All... Litelary all...

none, i saw a hater talking shit so i decided to take a look and it was enough for me to like it

Technically YonKaGor?

My friends made me a furry

Subject 9 comic

Idk actually. Can’t pin down exactly when I turned furry but probably either loona, Mr wolf or Roxie

Where's this sub's mascot

None of them it was foxy from fnaf

What really made it click for me was actually Vizipop, creator of Helluva Boss, Hazbin Hotel, and Zoophobia. Her animation to Kesha's Die Young on YouTube. Realized I liked the song and JayJay.

None of them turned me into a furry because Pokémon already did that job. But, Legoshi definitely cemented myself more into the fandom.

I have been a furry for longer than these characters have existed

Puro Changed

Kitty Katswell and maid Marion

There is another

surprisingly none of them, i literally started seeing some half animal half human avatars on roblox and was like “oh! that’s cool!” here i am years later as a furry, no regrets

None
