Let's Run Through The Medow And Never Look Back

concept: furbies but actual animals

City furbies are usually seen in large ruffles (groups), up to 20, in densely populated areas. They have adapted to living with humans and are a domestic breed. Most babies grow into dull colors, while some keep their vibrancy. The vibrant hues of some furbies are eye catching, making furbies popular pets.

Rural furbies live away from the cities, near the forests and farmlands due to sensitive hearing. They are quite shy and tend to stay away from people, but can rely on them for food and shelter. Ruffles of furbies can be commonly found near or in farm buildings. Their diet consists of any bugs or plants they can come across.

Tropical furbies live in humid areas, near beaches and on islands. There are multiple types of tropical furbies, wild, domestic, miniature, and bug.

Wild tropical furbies have small ruffles, usually up to 5 members. They aren’t very social and keep away from humans, constantly hissing and growling at passerby. Not much is known about them, for they are a rare sight.

Domestic tropical furbies live in small towns and villages, having ruffles up to 18 members. They are closely related to wild ones that are ocassionaly seen in the forests. Tropics tend to be very social towards humans and each other. Just as city furbies are, they’re popular pets.

Miniature furbies were specifically bred for their small size and are commonly mistaken for babies. They are extremely social and need a partner of another species to be happy and healthy.

Bug furbies are named so after the antennae on their heads. Ruffles can be up to 30 members. Not as popular as other tropics, they still make good pets nonetheless.

You might not want to hear this but people with anger issues and/or violent impulses need social accommodations. And no by accommodation I don't mean walking on eggshells around them, actual accommodations for people with these issues comes down to giving them a space away from what's triggering them to process their emotions and calm themselves down same as what kind of accommodations people who get sensory overload or just any kind of overwhelmed. There is no moral value to having anger issues or violent impulses, people with them are deserving of accommodation the same as everyone else.
