I’m a psychological, biological and ancestral animalkin and otherhearted.

I’m also a lioness and this is my sideblog dedicated to it -> @manabisroar

-> Other things you should know:

-Feel free to ask me anything about my identities and experiences in the ask thing, I would be really happy to answer.

-My animal identity is very important to me. Any invalidation or reality checking will not be tolerated.

Anyone else gets really protective over their food when super hungry? Like, I start to eat fast while feeling ready to snap if anyone would try to steal something from my plate.

The wolves heard your suffering.

The forest is on your side.

[therottingbones-sys]

seeing anti-otherpaw shit and it feels like pointless internet discourse,, but it bothered us. The beings we've seen advocating against otherpaws claim that they're copying therianthropy.

The anti-otherpaw movement is trying to claim that by wearing masks or doing quads they're copying therianthropy. That's not what therianthropy is at all. And we fear by making that claim it'll only perpetuate the belief that therianthropy = wearing a mask and doing quads.

For the ask game! #3, #7, and #13!

#3 What affirms your kintypes the most

I find my experiences and my gear the most affirming things: The experiences prove that I’m the animals I believe to be, which is really affirming lol. I also have a lot of gear that affirms my canine kintypes so much such as books, accessories and my journal where I write about my experiences and identities, keeping track of those during months and years. I also really love when I find out that something I tend to do it’s something that my kintypes also do.

#7 Does your alterhumanity affect your gender/sexuality

I’m a cisgender heterosexual female and yes, it does affect my therianthropy and my therianthropy affects it. I’m a she wolf who wishes to mate with a male wolf one day (so marrying a cis man, since wolves mate for life). I also love being a female animal, I love calling myself a she wolf instead of just “wolf” yk. Same goes for my dog and lioness kintypes. Being a female it’s who I am, even as an animal.

#13 Do you still identify partially with humanity Yea, I recognise my humanity to some degree, therefore I still partially identify as human (something like 10-15% tho), also bc one of my kintypes is a feral human, a human that’s nonhuman when it comes to behaviour and lifestyle, if that makes sense. However, I don’t like to be associated with humans who feel 100% human, since I’m not totally human like them.

Thank you for asking! If someone else wants to ask me anything I would love to answer! I really love talking about my identity and experiences (except question number 11 pls, I don’t know what that means).

Ruff! aurf! wrooff! Rauff! Awooooo!

*sniffs you curiously*

Wruff!! *sniffs back*

Woof! Awooo!!

[astrakaninez]

I'm currently on vacation and there's a pool where I'm staying at.

Swimming makes me feel so shifty. I always swim dog style and that makes me feel a lot more shifty and euphoric.

But...I need to swim with another canine SO BAD. Like, we could play fetch, playfight, vocalizing at eachother IN THE WATER. It would be 1000 times better (even better if the other would be a sea wolf or a dog that loves water).

Real pic of me in the pool btw.

❤️‍🩹AWAKENING ANNIVERSARY🐺

June 25th

Around June 25th 2023 I came across the therian community for the first time.

This is my awakening story and I’m going to share it to celebrate this precious anniversary.

My first memories of feeling and acting animalistic date back to when I was in kindergarten, around 2013.

There are many things that I’ve experienced such as instincts, urges and shifts, probably too much to be written there.

I like to explain it like this: I felt a lot of things, some of those were even pretty intense, that simply were not typical of a human being.

I mean, do humans have the strong urge to howl or playfight? Do humans feel the strong need to act like animals? Well, I did, bc I wasn’t totally human since the beginning.

I also felt very connected to wolves, almost like…I was one of them.

During middle school I’ve finally realised that I had a wolf’s mind.

That little awakening was really important to me. From then on, I’ve accepted the fact that I was a wolf in the wrong body. I’ve also started to identify as a black and white coated wolf.

That wolf identity part was something more similar to having an OC rather than identifying as a real wolf, but that “OC” was actually a way of expression: it was a black and white coated she wolf, which was me, my true self. That’s why I made her like that.

Sadly, middle school wasn’t easy for me: the girls in my class always excluded me and even made fun of me sometimes.

I wasn’t being heavily bullied, I was just the weird kid that every pre-teen avoids and secretly laughs at.

One of the reasons I was picked on by the boys was bc I was known as “ladywolf”, a nickname I chose to connect with my wolf identity. I just let everyone in the class know about this name bc I wanted to be seen as a wolf (or at least as the wolf girl). Little did I know that they wouldn’t see me as a wolf but as an even weirder kid instead lol.

And that was just the first year of middle school.

Shortly after I was officially diagnosed autistic.

Around the 2nd and 3rd year (so I was about to become a teen and no longer a kid) I’ve started to suppress my wolf side as my social anxiety drastically grew: I would suppress any kind of urge, instinct or shift. I’ve learned that being around humans while being like that wasn’t socially acceptable and…all I wanted was to be accepted.

During that long suppression phase I would always think about one thing: “once middle school is over, I will let that wolf out”. I was tired of suppressing myself just because I had to appear totally human in order to be considered “normal”. I was still a wolf despite suppressing it, why I was trying to erase one of the most important things about who I truly was?

Middle school finally ended in June 2023.

I don’t exactly remember if I’ve actually stopped to suppressing my wolf self, since suppressing kinda became a normal thing to do, almost like an automatic response to the animalistic feelings.

Then the magic happened.

I was scrolling on Likee (a tiktok like platform) when I came across to a video: it was a person trotting on all fours with their dog while wearing a wolf mask (It was actually uziultralite, previously known as cybercyn on tiktok).

If I remember correctly, I immediately thought something like “that’s how I feel!”.

When I learned about therians and that they feel and act like animals, I’ve started to do some introspection.

I clearly remember the night when I was counting on my fingers how many animalistic stuff I’ve always experienced and sometimes I would gasp out of surprise: I also felt and acted animalistic, my whole life!

I then started following a bunch of therian accounts on Likee and all I felt was the warm feeling of having found people like me.

I have to admit that I was kinda misinformed at the time. I was one of those people who think it’s just “feeling a connection with an animal”.

However, I’ve always knew that I had something deeper than a connection with wolves. In fact, when I learned that therians actually identify as animals, everything started to make sense.

I then awakened as a wolf therian and otherhearted!

June 25th isn’t the exact day of when I awakened, bc the process was gradual. My therian awakening probably lasted till August 2023.

However, on June 25th 2023 I bought my first pair of gear at my first comicon ever: a tail and ears set.

That date marks the day I finally "let the wolf out". Buying my first gear started the process of embracing who I truly was.

I want to say that yes, the tiktok community is indeed toxic and stereotypical, but I don’t think some of us would be there if it wasn’t for a “therian tiktok”, especially younger members.

Because here I am.

I still ask myself how I would’ve found the community if it wasn’t for that video and, most importantly, how long I would’ve waited to finally embrace myself.

Only after my therian awakening I’ve realized how heavy it was to not know why I was the way I was, bc after the awakening it felt like having a weight lifted off my chest.

Now I howl free, knowing that I can finally express myself and I’m not alone.

I would really love to talk to my younger self, who felt like she was the only one on Earth feeling like this. And that feeling of loneliness just worsened everything.

Little did she know…she’s home now.

Thank you so much to the people who shared their experiences in the past, they really helped me to figure it all out.

Thank you so much for crossing my path when I needed it, my dear animal community.

Mentally, I'm in the Druid Peak pack hunting alongside my packmates. Physically, I'm stuck in human civilization.

[astrakaninez]

this probably has been asked you many times, but what does ancestral animalkin mean?

Hi! Sorry for the late response!

Being an ancestral kin means that you believe to have nonhuman ancestors.

I personally believe to have both wolves and biological wolf kins as ancestors since i have wolf DNA (as i'm also a biological wolfkin, when you believe to have nonhuman biology).

For the theriform wolf ancestors (real wolves), this is something more on a "spiritual-ish" level for me, but I remember crying because i would miss my wolf parents when I was a kid. But I'm 99% sure to have fellow wolf kins as ancestors (haven't actually done any research on this, it's just a gut feeling).

Hope to have helped! 🐺🧬

Non human friendship!

Making animal noises at each-other,

Play fighting,

Running around together / chasing each other,

Putting your foreheads against each other,

Sharing your food with each other,

Finding big sticks and interesting rocks,

I love non human friendships
