My decision was based on my personality traits. Originally, my fursona was a lion because I thought my personality was more cat-like, so I figured a lion would be the best fit. Also, lions are cool! I then settled on a hyena because I later thought my personality was dog-like as well, however I was not completely committed to being fully dog, so I did the next best thing and decided to pick an animal which was basically a cat in a dog-like body!
