What do you wish to be called?
Tigerty or just Tiger
How old are you?
I'm 20 years old.
Are you male or female, or somewhere in between? In other words, what is your gender identity?
I'm female.
Are you a therian?
Yes.
What is your theriotype?
Tiger
How did you come to these conclusions?
I've always felt that there's a tiger inside me.. When I was a kid I used to bite people who annoyed me.. yeah.. that has been longer than I can remember.. (Literally.. still I sometimes meet people who tell me that I bit them when I was a kid.. and I can't really remember that myself..) And when I was about 10 or something I wondered out loud why was I born as a human why wasn't I born as a tiger.
What kind of influence is your theriotype? In other words, is it an inner influence, and outer influence? Or something else entirely. Please explain!
Hmm... it's mostly inner but also outer. For example I often act like a tiger in different situations.. when I get annoyed I hiss and snarl...
Have you ever shifted? If so, what are your experiences with shifting?
I've had quite a few dream shifts... For example once a werewolf and a werelion taught me how to transform into a weretiger..
And mental shifts I have pretty often.. For example when I get pissed off I could easily hurt someone if my human side wasn't there to hold me back.. And.. sometimes.. the human side just can't hold me back anymore.. and then I probably will hurt.. but.. that won't happen very easily.. 'cause, like tigers, I give a sort of warning first before I attack.. that usually gives me time to walk away from that irritating situation..
Phanton shifting I have every now and then... I can often feel the tail, tiger ears, paws and muzzle.
Sense shifts I've had also.. My hearing is incredibly sensitive.. sometimes when I walk on a street, or where ever, I can hear a mouse rustling in the grass nearby.. And my friends or family members who might be there too can't hear anything..
Do you consider yourself any particular "type" of therian? In other words, are you a contherian? A syntherian? So on. (If you do not know what these terms mean, that's alright, please let us know.)
Hmm.. I'd say I'm a contherian.. 'cause I really feel the tiger all the time.. Though.. I just told about the shifts I've had... but now when I come to think about it.. those "shifts" are just normal part of me.. and people who know me are used to my snarls and my tigerish behaviour.. Mostly the human side is more on view.. but sometimes the tiger side comes out.. But they are both there all the time.
How long have you known about your therianthropy? When did you come into the community?
I found about therianthropy about a year ago. About a half year ago I joined to a Finnish therian forum... But for me therianthropy was just a name for something that has always existed.
Are you otherkin?
Hmm.. haven't really thought about it... But.. no.. I think I'm not..
What led you to this conclusion? If you are both otherkin and therian, please explain why you feel you are both.
As far as i know.. otherkins are mostly mythological or legendary creatures. And I'm a common tiger.. Siberian tiger that is..
How long have you known about otherkin? When did you realize you are otherkin?
I heard about otherkin about at same time as I heard about therianthropy..
What do you hope to gain from joining our community?
I hope to get to know people who might understand me..
