Anything anthropomorphic, other than humans, counts as furry.
First off, what's furry? That's an easy thing to tell:
It's an animal that happens to be human as well.
In technical terms we call it anthropomorphics,
But it's easy to explain without all the linguistics;
If it walks like a person but meows like a cat,
You've got yourself a furry - it's as simple as that!
If it talks like a person and flies like a bird,
Then it's still a furry even though it sounds absurd.
'Cause even though birds have feathers and not fur,
Mammals are the commonest type of furry in the world
So the word comes from them. Even starting with a fly,
You'll end up with a furry no matter how hard you try.

I always saw furry as the fandom who generally liked anthropomorphic animals in their own ways, while anthropomorphic itself was any non-human thing given human characteristics. For example, the flying carpet in Disney's Aladdin.

That's the best overview of the furry fandom EVER! Nauv must have been really inspired by a muse or something when he drew that.

But Burning Sheep Productions, you surely meant bottom left and not bottom right.

Furries? Are they the nutters that pretend to be animals and draw humans that look like animals? Christ, I sink my head into my paws... -Rooster

My fursona is exactly like me, just more dog-like. At least he has an excuse for the wet dog smell.

wtf are fursona seeds
Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...
