hiii!! do you mind giving some tips for a silver fox? unless thats already been done, in which case, sorry... i dont have much time this morning so i figured id just send the ask... but thank you either way!
I can absolutely do that! I haven’t done a fox yet!
(This can also go for any other colored/ different species of foxes!)
Wearing faux fur leggings or arm warmers in your natural fur color can be euphoric! As well as wearing more fox centered things like necklaces, rings, (bonus points if they’re silver or black) earrings, etc!) wearing things that just generally make you happy or comfortable in your kin type is great too!
Dressing like your type can also be a good way to keep your dysphoria to a minimum, black/dark colored sweaters or long sleeves in a material you like layered underneath a lighter short sleeve shirt, black or grey pants, darker shoes or boots. Even wearing a bag at your side can mimic the weight of a tail if it hits your back/ legs.
Taxidermy can also be a good way to express your fox traits, Etsy is a great place to look! However make sure the seller you’re buying from ethically sourced said taxidermy.
Making your own gear or buying items that make you feel more like your species can be a super fun and euphoric! Toys, accessories, tail keychains/ hypermotion tails, ear headbands or hair clips can be found on Etsy or Amazon! HOWEVER! Do not get tails or taxidermy from Amazon, nine times out of ten they come from fur farms. And those don’t always have the best conditions for the animals.
For the hypermotion tail (if you get one, they are a bit expensive though so be mindful of that) getting a custom sleeve/cover for it can make it look fluffier and more fox like! A few that you might like can be found here, here, and here
Foxes are very clever and energetic, going on hikes, learning things (could literally be anything, baseline is foxes are very intelligent) being mischievous (playing small non-harmful tricks) being resourceful and independent is also very fox coded behavior! (You don’t need to be hyper dependent though! Foxes sometimes need to rely on each other sometimes too)
Eating meat (chicken, rabbit, beef etc) fruits (blueberries, black berries, raspberries, any kind of berry really) can make you feel more like yourself! If you want sweeter things. peeps, marshmallow mice, and gummy worms are great too.
Playing tag with your friends or actually going hunting (if it’s legal in your area) can be euphoric too!
I know it sounds kinda silly the way foxes sound, but it can genuinely be very fun to try and play around with noises. Tutorials can also help a lot with trying to get the right sounds!
Your identity can’t be changed by anyone but you, no one can take away who you are unless you let them. Don’t let ignorant and mean people dim your sparkle<3
