Why not 1: What are your paw/alterhuman types? Paw: Ocelot, generic house cats Kin: Northwestern Wolf, Southern Flying Squirrel, Tabby Cat, SilkWing (Also and Otherlink and Otherheart but those aren’t asked for here) 2: Do you have multiple paw/alterhuman types? I in fact do! 3: How did you find your paw/alterhuman type(s)? Paw: I really like all cats, and ocelots have the best patterns ever. Kin: I always knew I was a cat, half knew the wolf and just had to confirm it, figured out the flying squirrel slowly (don’t remember exactly how, and the SilkWing ‘type was found through shifts. 4: Do you have any IRL otherpaw/alterhuman friends? Yep! @c0ding_c0rps3 , a couple kids at my old school, and my cousin (who is currently not sure if she’s an Alterhuman, thinks she’s reincarnated but is doing research) 5: why did u decide to be an otherpaw? (If u are one) Idk, I just did. Why not? 6: Do you have any gear? Paw: Yep! Half my clothes are ocelot patterned, I have a tail, a couple pairs of ears, and that’s it? Oh wait, also my black cat Halloween costume! Kin: Yep, so much! A couple bad paw gloves, definitely only two masks (we don’t talk about the other three (3) okay), and two tails. Also clothes. 7: What is the funniest insult somebody has said to you about otherpaws/alterhumans? I have a whole list. They’re genuinely funny okay “Can you show me how to do the furry walk?” (I promptly quadded across the yard, lol) “Are you gay?” then “Are you a boy or a girl?” then “Are you a lesbian?” *holds out laser pointer in broad daylight* “Here, kitty kitty” “Furry!” (The context for this one is that they were in a literal car as I was walking by. I’m more important than their video games!) “How do you grow a tail?” “Why do you even go to the park?” (Me just quadding, which is why) “Can I pet you?” *proceeds to try and pet me* (I promptly swat them away) 8: Have you ever been public gearing? Yes! Every day at school, a couple times in stores, once (that I remember) at the park, and once at a trampoline park. 9: Have you ever been called a furry? Yes. Like, all the time. 10: Are you a furry? Nope. Furries are awesome, though! I’m just not one. 11: if u have been insulted, how did u deal w/ it? Answer their questions genuinely in the moment, laugh at them later. 12: Do you collect things? If so, what? Yep. I collect whatever random thing I’m hyperfixating on if it’s collectible, along with books if that counts. 13: Do you do quads? Yesssssssss I can jump over four (4) young kids! 14: Do you do vocals? *meows and nods* 15: What is your favorite animal? Cat, but I’m biased because I am one. I also really like ocelots, foxes, and all other felines. 16: Do you have a territory? …my room? That, the Shelter at my cottage, and the junior-intermediate border at my old school. 17: What is your dream location? A forest, with large cliffs surrounding a waterfall pool. The landscape has a striking geography, with dirt and stone pillars stretching from the bottom to the top, trees taking root and water falling from them. The land is so vast that, standing at the top, I can’t look and see the bottom. 18: Have you ever seen your paw/alterhuman type(s)? Paw: Cats, yes. Ocelots, no. Kin: Tabby cats, yes. Wolves, only in captivity, but yes. Flying Squirrels, no. SilkWings, I’ll let you figure that one out :( 19: Do you watch otherpaw/alterhuman videos/quad tuts? Quad tuts yes gimme them all I can’t jump high 20: What is your personal definition of an otherpaw or alterhuman? Paw: Someone who cosplays, roleplays, or in other ways acts as an animal they don’t identify as for fun-ness reasons. Kin: Someone who identifies as a nonhuman of some kind, or a fictional human character.
I’m doing this both as an Alterhuman and an Otherpaw btw!
