Title: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Takarah Luna on August 25, 2010, 11:46:50 PM
Jut wondering, but do any of u have some random vocalizations that you do/ happen when youre scared, sad, happy, excited, or purly at random?

I like to make a whimper, growl, and then bark when I'm feeling random. That's about it really, I can't howl very well x.x

I don't whine very often.... But when I get bored I yip and I often find myself resisting the urge to howl (very loudly) while walking in crowds of people or where there is alot of energy...

That's a small part of it, there's also the occasional 'phantom shift' where I feel phantom tail/ears and my body sometimes has the urge to crouch down like an animal, and I have freaky reflexes to things, like constantly twitching and stuff. But I tend to express my therianthropic side in my corporeal body. I think it's the more you accept yourself the further you freely express it, I've had animalistic tendencies forever but now I do a lot more.

Now I can find myself growling, occasionally and I usually feel a need to bark out or something.
Also when a strong emotion occurs I usually express it involuntarily, even if I'm in crowds.
Kinda weird, I like being weird though  ^_^

I can't really purr, but sometimes I want to randomly start meowing or something if that counts.

I can purr, mew, meow, roar, and hiss.

I also tend to twist and curl up cat like while sleeping (Which turns out to be bad for a human back)

Sometimes, I really can't help it, but I growl/snarl at some people sometimes.
Once I howled at school... Awkward.

Mostly as a reaction of surprise, when it comes to vocal. I tend to be virtually mute for the most part.

On the non-vocal side and the more physical/action-based things, I pretty much shift every time I go to sleep. Which can get a bit embarrassing if someone wants to take pictures of me and that to catch me in the act. And then pawing at insects / playing with them morbidly.

Then, of course, the common phantom limb feeling, which is pretty uncommonly "complete" (As far as a tail goes), the rest of the time it feels like a growing sensation that seems to not want to come out.

i growl on occassion and whimper if im sad, i also get the whole phantom ears and tail feeling and for some reason i go all hyper sensitive to noises and such and twitch at the slightest thing etc

I've been known to growl on occasion. Never realized I did it till it was pointed out to me.

Though thats about the extent of my vocal excursion into therianism. Most of what I feel is mentally based.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Takarah Luna on September 09, 2010, 09:29:43 PM
Yeah... I get a lot of phantom ears shifts and stuff... And I get the urge to howl in public for no real reason... I think it has to do with the energy around me... But I'm not sure...
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: ___ on September 09, 2010, 09:47:09 PM
Same here, Luna. I can yip and bark around my friends, so that's what I do, and they don't mind it.
Sometimes they'll rub my belly. :) But when I'm around other peoples... Not so much, and they have a tendancy of making me angry, so I have to keep my growly stuff to myself, but sometimes it comes out on its own.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Kitty (Sakura Colvez) on September 23, 2010, 02:24:40 AM
Me I'm a good mix of dog and cat, because I also get urges to howl and growl like a dog as much as I snarl and hiss like a cat.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Takarah Luna on September 23, 2010, 02:30:46 AM
Cool... I can kind of meow and stuff... But don have much of a connection to cats...  :/ I wish I had a verified YouTube account, and a working camera... I'd like to videotape myself howling...  :/
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Kitty (Sakura Colvez) on September 24, 2010, 02:07:26 AM
Yeah and I don't have much of a connection to wolves, but I am also a wolf inside. I whimper when I am sad, nervous, or even when I really want something like a dog. I have also barked numerous times, and have been called "dog" before. Humilating really especially when you don't care much for dogs.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: DatFox Coleo on September 24, 2010, 02:09:55 AM
Well.. I can howl...
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Kitty (Sakura Colvez) on September 24, 2010, 02:11:21 AM
So can I and I have before. My howl is so pretty sounding and I love it. People tell me it sounds really realistic. Which is probally why people call me their little wolfy kitty cat.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Takarah Luna on September 24, 2010, 02:28:47 AM
My howl isn't bad... I dont think it sounds "real" but it's recognizable as a wolf's howl... Most of my friends call me the wolf girl... Or wolfie... :P
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?

My friends call me Foxy, In fact i actually howl at every full moon.

This. I also growl a little should I get angry.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Vee Katame: His Wolfy on October 02, 2010, 09:22:41 PM
I growl, howl, whimper, whine, and bark. Though the barking is usually just playing with my dogs to see if I can get them going. Most of those sounds sound like the real thing when I do them, but that's just my opinion (although one time I was whining and Shinzuu thought it was one of the dogs doing it, lol).

I meow on occasion but that's also playing with my dogs (and I can be pretty convincing).
I also moo when I see cows. It's pretty much an automatic reaction.

That's so adorable Vee! When I see cows in the middle of the road when going somewhere I like to say "MOOve over!"

People call me the crazy cat lady, kitty, or cat girl. I am obssesed with cats and will admit unlike most therians I like to pretend to be my animal. Because it feels right. However sometimes when I don't want to act animal I do or at least wish too. However I also act wolf like even though I really wish not too. However I am slowly coming to terms with my wolfish side. Also people tend to nickname me the little lost puppy dog alot! And call me Kitty... ALOT!

Post by: Illix on October 29, 2010, 09:21:46 PM
I act a lot like a dog and a wolf. I'm really obedient and submissive and I'll do most things my friends say, and my best friend tells me I act like a dog and that I'm like her pet  :) I love howling, but I can't since it really annoys everyone, and I'll whine when I don't get what I want, but I go really really quiet when I'm angry. I've noticed that I'm getting a bit more defiant and I think my wolf side is coming out. My little sister also tells me that I yawn like a wolf, which is really funny because of the way she reacts  :D
I also sleep curled up as small as I possibly can be and some times I feel a tail, not often though... I like it  ^_^

Post by: on October 31, 2010, 01:17:59 AM
I don't believe in any special "connection" but though I have many friends I am naturally a loner, I sometimes feel the need to make a canine whine, and I get really really claustrophobic in rooms with tons of people and am liable to lash out.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Takarah Luna on November 11, 2010, 03:28:55 AM
you don't necessarily have to feel a connection to an animal to be a therian... actually, the best advice I can give is look it up... you might learn something...

Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: Saphira on February 18, 2011, 02:22:14 PM
I always have a strong feeling that my body wants go down on all four, and I also always have an desire of wanting to howl(all the time), growl(most of the time) and other wolfy things. also my body sometimes feels like I have wings and really wants to fly. I also sometimes feel like I have a long tail and a wolf/dragon like face...

I also have dreams about being a wolf/dragon thats running, flying, growling and howling(not all at the same time xD) but if my dream then gets kinda complicated or something like that I turns into a flying human and then flying is really heavy and it feels like im being dragged to the earth.... is this normal?  o.O

I also have a bad habbit of sleeping laying like a wolf/dragon (dragon/sort of catlike but more dragonlike).

oh and i feel like wagging a tail and is doing a sort of barking when I'm really ecxited/happy.
Title: Re: Therianthropic vocal quirks?
Post by: icy wolf on February 18, 2011, 04:17:56 PM
iam the same as you, only diffince is i dont feel like a dragon. i have had dreams of being a wolf i sleep on my side kind of like how a dog/pup would. some times i feel like i want to "rip out of this body" so i can be in my true body. ( if that makes seance ). i howl,growls, wimpier ( rarely) and bark ( rarely) as well. i try not to do it to often or when there are a lot of people around, don't want to get looks saying that iam crazy but it dose happen. so i would say your normal . i might have been some ones "pet wolf" in a past life , when no one is around i where a 'dog collar", feels good. 2 nights a go it wasn't cloudy so i howled at the moon, just the other day there was this sent i didn't like and then a van drove by also didn't like that, so i started to growl. so your not the only one of us that wants to do stuff like that. ive also had memory's / feelings of places i was but haven't been there in this body.

how about you?

OMG I get wierd flashback kind of feelings too! sometimes when I sleep I dream about the same forest with a lake... real wierd... and sometimes when I am walking around and thinking randomly I get those feelings...  o.O

When quizzical, I will often emit a somewhat "mew" sound
After a carnal act, I am known to purr (and during to occasionally nip and claw lightly; not for pain, just for passion)
But most of my acts are non-verbal. Crouching on furniture, pouncing, climbing stairs on all fours, walking on the balls of my feet, catlike stretching, sleeping on floors, eating foods w/o aid of utensil or plate (i.e. tuna from a can or leftover meatloaf with my hands), I also enjoy slight licking on another's nose or behind the ear.

I was a former president of the scifi club at my school, and I use to make strange animal noises anyway before that but in college I would say moo, mow or mew a lot and before I knew it everybody was copying me and greeting me with moo or mew, and even speaking using them as expressions of sadness, happiness, and excitement.
 o.O It confused me for a while, but I shrugged it off and payed it no mind. Now that I think about my youth... I've always acted a bit odd in a furry manner. Just never called myself one till now... But at least I feel a bit better being around people around about the same as me. Plus I really enjoy mimicking my pets and animals outside sound wise. I would reply to the mocking birds in my backyard and I loved it when they would fly by and answer back and it would go on for about easily 15 mins. I also like talking to my cat speedy who sounds like a tribble from star trek with the way he talks as he follows me around. Tis lots of fun with my dear pets/children
 ^_^ Mow...
