Just thought I'd try to bring this place back to life...
I thought it would be fun to talk about fun things that we do because of our theriotype since I'm sure there's got to be something.
What I mean is like to have some crazy T-shirt with [insert animal here] all over it? Do you have piece of jewelry that you always wear because of your theriotype? Do you die your hair to look more like your theriotype? Stuff like that.
I have a coin pendant that has a raven pressed into it that I wear all the time, it's not that big but someone always inevitably notices it and asks about it which I then get to talk about ravens which is always fun because most people don't know much about them. Also I just dyed my hair black the other day (I was already a dark brunette so it wasn't too dramatic but seeing some of my friends reactions is funny). I'd been talking about it for a while and then I finally just up and did it.
I'm also being a Corbae from Charles De Lint's Someplace to be Flying (Great book by the way) for Halloween.

Hehe, yup! I have... four shirts that have to do with birds of prey - one of them has a red-tailed hawk on it. I also have two hawk pendant necklaces, one eagle pendant necklace, and a few pairs of raptor earrings (saw-whet owl, peregrine falcon, american kestrel and hawk) And, I recently got some of that 28-shampoos hair dye and for a while, my hair was pretty close to the color of a red-tailed hawk's tailfeathers. Although it's worn out (ahead of its time) and I want to permanently dye it now, so it lasts. I wore wings on Halloween, although sometime over the next year, I want to paint them to look like hawks' wings. God. Not to even mention all of the bird-of-prey decor in our apartment.

lol, I've definitely got tons of things that revolve around my theri-sides I've got horse figurines, a fleece blanket with a silver horse on it, several hundered drawings/paintings of horses, and I have a shirt with the Ford Mustang logo on it (both because of the mustang, and the fact that I looove that car) But, I only have a handful of things for my feline side. Stuffed panthers, leopards, lions, etc., a collectors plate with snow leopards on it...and I think that's it. lol can't think of much else that I do for it...though I've always wanted to die my hair black 'cause of my melanistic puma side. I hear you on the decor bit too, Redfeather. If my room was any more horsey, people would think I was nuts. lol

I often wear wolf pendants (wearing one now) or sometimes a dog collar. I don't know if the collar is because of my therianthropy, but...
I also doodle wolves and dogs in my notebooks almost daily, sometimes other animals too. I like to chase rabbits and howl too, but I don't reall do that in public.

I have a brown tank top with bunnies all over it. <3
Otherwise I don't really have much else. A few plushies from when I was younger, but otherwise nothing. :/
I'm in love with Watership Down and would like to own the books someday - as well as a wittle rabbit friend.

I have three wolf posters in my room, and lots of pictures found on the Internet which I printed out... Sometimes I walk on all four and also sniff or snarl. But that's not in public, only when I'm alone or so... And only in shifts. Well, I wish very often that I had a T-shirt with a wolf on it, but the posters will have to do. And also, I have a Siberian Husky soft toy. It's not a wolf, but it's close enough. Hmm, I cannot think of anything else, really... Edit: I didn't buy the Siberian Husky soft toy much because of my theriotype, but because it was cute. However, that might have with my theriotype to do.

Hmm... we've always collected cat figurines, though we might sell those in order to cut down on general stuff and make some money. Our hair color being black is for many reasons, but I don't think it has much to do with therianthropy. It mostly has to do with the reasons that many of us have black hair internally, as well as we look best in black hair in this body as well (it was originally the natural color until external influences known as the sun changed it to a dark, ashy brown). Though we have dyed it red a couple of times (that didn't look as good, especially after fading), which was also related to internal decisions and reasoning. I think we move in a certain way at times because of theriotypes. We don't possess any "omg feline therian" belongings, though we do wear a tiger's eye all the time for many reasons (shifting being one of those). People do ask about the tiger's eye. I haven't slept so my mind isn't really very intelligent right now. >< I can't think of anything else, sorry.

I have… several wolf shirts that I like to wear for fun on a few occasions. I have two wolf necklaces - one is carved out of bone and the other is a silver pendent. I also have silver wolf ring. Lucky for me, I guess, that both my natural hair color and my wolf self overall fur color is the same -dark brown. As for other ‘stuff’ I have four stuffed animals, though two are actually dogs and not wolves while the other two are.
Once for Halloween I wore a wolf tail that I made myself. I also have a Native American based wolf mask that I made myself (though I need to make a new and better mask one of these days) that I use and wear.
I don’t really want to details about all the wolf related stuff I have in my room from years of slow collecting… I’ll go with Equinuus-Felinity’s wording on this one and say “If my room was any more [wolfy] people would think I was nuts.”

It's very theraputic and fun to see what you can create, especially for those who can't draw (me). /off topic

I don't have the money or my own room so I don't have wolf stuff. I'd love to get a necklace though.

I draw a lot of wolves and foxes which I put into this black binder. I'm not sure why... but I'm REALLY over-protective of it. If I get better, I might post some of it. Sometimes, if I have a rough day, I go outside at night and just stair at the moon and stars.

I started dying my hair black. I have very few "cat" pieces of jewelery, but the two or three I have, I'm EXTREMELY territorial over.
