1.noun; A fandom of people who are animal enthusiasts who usually draw or have anthropomorphised animal characters. There is two main sides of the furry fandom. The SFW side, which is quite a bit larger than the NSFW side, but usually keeps quiet due to the reputation the NSFW side has given the fandom. Most furries are not interested in beastiality or fetishizing anything related to furries. And then we have the NSFW side. The fandom is judged largely by the NSFW side, which most other fandoms have NSFW sides, and their reputation isn't based on that, so it doesn't really make sense.

2.adjective; Fluffy, having fur, fuzzy
1. person a: Did you hear that Bailey is a furry?
person b: Does that mean they want to have sex with animals?

person b: Oh, alright. I can be safe taking my dog over to their house.

2. My cat's tail is so furry!
