What the hell are you? I'm a Therian. A feline therian, to be exact.
Here are terms and definitions you may hear me use in my blog. (These were not written by me, but by Strill). I hope that these open your mind to what I am.
Therianthrope: A person who is, feels, or believes he/she is in part or whole (non-physically) one or more non-human animals on an integral, personal level.
Therioside: The non-human animal(s) that a therianthrope identifies with.
Contherian: One who is constantly integrated with their therioside and does not shift.
Suntherian: One who is constantly integrated with their therioside; suntherians do not shift, but their therioside/human ratio varies.
Cladotherian: One who relates to a group of animals as opposed to a specific species. (eg: “Feline” as opposed to “Tiger”)
Mental shift: Shift wherein one’s mental outlook is changed to resemble that of one’s theriotype.
Phantom shift: Shift wherein “phantom” or non-existent limbs or body parts (eg: tail) are experienced.
Dream shift: Shifting in one’s dreams to one’s therioside.
