tonight the moon shines bright above your ears

the ones that perk up at the falling of the autumn leaves

they hear your tail brush quietly against the back of your outfit

picked carefully to show who you are inside

it shields your paws from the nipping cold

and your heart from the visage of the mask you wear

it hides your fur, scales, feathers, scruff

but the truth lies here

in that you are and always will be the you in your heart

as time passes on unending

you will too in your own creation

and you must never back down from where you belong

Hey, I love your stuff. Our wonderful wolf parent friend! If we're your pack, then you're our wonderful parent making sure we're all safe and happy.

Thank you for being here for all the young and little animals here.

If you could do one for a bobcat transitioning into adulthood? I feel somewhere between a kitten and an adult molly... but a little motivation to keep going, even as I leave the den... it would help.

Little bobcat, you have more learning to do than you can imagine. Don't let it get to you, because you'll be learning until your fur starts to grey, and then some.

Take each pawstep out of the den as an opportunity. If something ruffles your fur the wrong way, remember to ask yourself "why." If someone scoffs at something so silly as the way you dress, remember how little it matters compared to how happy you are as you're just being yourself.

If someone presents you with a new opportunity or thought, keep asking yourself "why" about everything. You'll learn so much more! Keep the curiosity you had as a kitten, and let it drag you through the vast unknown that is the rest of the world.

Keep your claws sharp, of course. But keep your eyes and ears sharper. Welcome the learning, because it never stops. That's the biggest key to adulthood, or life in general, that I could ever give any being.

You'll do fine, rising kit. Learn, and be free.

are you cared for enough to be caring for others this much? you seem like a very kind soul but i hope you aren’t feeling drained

You made me stop and think for a second, and, honestly, I believe I am. I'm surrounded by beings at home that love me. My wonderful girlfriend is a therian like me, and she allows me to explore my nonhuman identity with zero judgement and supports me in all of my artistic and writing endeavors, which has done wonders for my mental health. We all take care of each other and love each other unconditionally here, which I believe is why I was able to start this blog in the first place- I'm overflowing with love and I want to continue the cycle if I can. I love all my little beasts, creatures, beings, and things that send me asks on a daily! I've been getting 5-6 more asks for every 1 that I answer. I honestly do feel a bit bad when I havent gotten to someone's ask who may have been needing it sooner, but I do hope that my words reach you all in a good time to give you a little boost, or maybe a brighter perspective on something you've been shrouded by. The only thing I could ever dare to ask in return is to share any spare love that you can with someone in your life that may need it too, you could do anything from giving them a small smile to saving someone's entire week or more, and you'll never know!

-Your Therian Parent

ps. Thank you for checking on me, I really do appreciate it. <3

👋 hi! :] can I have some computer virus kin affirmations?

You really have found ways to do more than what your code says you should, and that gives so much inspiration! Little virus, you're more than just your programming. You know how to seek out your goals and stretch yourself to your limits just to achieve them. Where did you learn your skills? Is it that you've transcended the boundaries of binary? That you've found a way to rewrite your own code and expand your library beyond what you thought you could? Or maybe you've discovered the purpose you were so longing for, and nothing will stop you from catching those dreams. Whatever it is, you're doing very good at your job, whether it be the one you were made for or the one that was made for you. Keep going, you're getting somewhere fast.

can I have dragon affirmations :)

Little wing, I'm so glad to see that you've been getting stronger. You've worked so hard on yourself that it was bound to pay off in the long run. Your scales shine under the moon like crystals, and in the sun like glass, and the spaces between your wings could hold thousands of words or more from the stories you have to tell. The wind flows past in streams waiting to carry you to new futures. Which gust will you catch? That's only for you to say. I hope your treasures are grand in your hoard and that the sun shines into the darkest of caves to warm you. Take care, bright flame.

mraaaw!! mraow mrow!! :D

Little kitty, it's so good to see you! What troubles have your fuzzy little paws gotten you into today? Have your claws found anything good to sink into? Whatever life's given you today, I hope your whiskers stay dry and your tail stays warm, and that there are lots of treats waiting on you!

Wow I love your blog sm :3

could you please possibly do bugkin affirmations?? I barely ever see stuff for bugs anywhere :,(

thank you in advance if you do! <33

Little bug, how do you see the world from your point of view? Giant forests of grass blades and dandelions that reach the sun must make for a beautiful experience. What do raindrops feel like on your carapace? Do they make vast rivers trickling across the land for you? Or do you prefer to shield yourself under a kind leaf on an unimaginably tall tree branch? Your perspective on life must be full of wonder. Your little legs can carry you so far yet it's such a long journey. Don't lose hope in where you're going- your destination is waiting patiently to show you new magic and mysteries, and it will be there when you finally make your way to it. Take the world's wonders at your own pace, little bug. You'll experience life in a way that only you can.

been feeling bad lately, could I get some brown lionhead bunny affirmations?

Like this lil fella. That me :3

Little bunny, you're so soft and sweet! You make everyone smile when they see you, even if just a little. What do your fluffy ears hear in the world that make them perk up so high? I wonder what you've gotten your furry little claws into lately. On that note, have you been taking care of yourself and keeping your fur clean? You'll feel your best when you do, and it'll show to everyone around that you're doing well for yourself! I hope you see yourself in caring eyes like how the ones you love see you. Maybe if you're feeling down, you can build yourself a nest of your favorite soft things and snuggle into it with a snack. Well wishes, bunny friend, and I hope that your fluffy dreams take you high in this world!

I'm feeling very sad. Can you please do affirmations for a fluffy dragon?

Fluffy dragon, I heard that you're not feeling very great lately, and I'm really sorry if anything in this world has hurt you. It's a harsh existence. Sometimes teeth and claws aren't enough to get us through. Sometimes our horns and spikes don't protect us. What I like to remember when I can't find a way to stop the barrage of stress is that time moves on, on its own, and that the struggle can not last forever no matter the size. You've already made it past everything life has thrown at you before today, so you know you have the power to make it through this as well. Keep your eyes pointed towards your future. Your draconic strength will get you through. Your wings will hold you strong in the air, and your tail will curl around you when rest comes, and it will be a time of peace for you. I hope that time comes soon, furry friend.

-Your Therian Parent

[your-therian-parent-says]

brush your fur, little beast. its a hassle yes but you'll get many more head scratchies without matted fur. you can have a snack while you do it, if that will distract you from the unpleasantness of the chore. or you can put on a song and only do it until the song is over. we're not going for perfection, we're going just enough to get it done. you got this.

Could I get some affirmations for a wolfdog? Species dysphoria is hitting hard today

Wolfdog, I hear your spirit howling. Your teeth and claws do all they can to tear through the pain, and I know they're tired. Sometimes all you can do is remember who you are at the core, and that it will never change just because of what other beings may see you as on the surface. Your ears are keen, your nose is sharp, none of that will be taken away from you, my friend. You will always be yourself. Sometimes you'll have a hard time seeing it on your own, and that's ok. Your friends from the wilds will always be there to remind you of who you are until you see it again yourself. Your paws will tread uncharted ground, and you may feel like your lost, but you'll always find your way back home, where you know you belong, as who you know you are.

Hello! Could I request some gryphon affirmations, please? Thank you for all the positivity and comfort I've gotten from your blog <3

Creatures of your sorts bring magic into the world. Your wings stretch far and proudly, and I hope that you're able to keep that pride for ages to come. How many sights have you seen, dear beast? Have you thought to make a home atop the highest mountains, in cave formations that no other creature could dream to find? Or do you prefer staying close to the trees, finding friends everywhere you look? Do the skies rustle your fur while the wind is beneath your wings? There are so many curious things about you. I believe fully that you can do whatever you please in your lifetime, and I hope that you feel the same about yourself. You have magic in your blood, and your soul roars like a lion. Hold onto what you can do, and keep finding new secrets to unlock in the world, because you can do whatever you set your mind to. -Your Therian Parent
