Anthro Dolls: Are they pets of your human dolls, or separate?

My first (and probably only-) anthro doll, a DF PoPo, is currently on order and hasn't shipped yet... but he's slated to be the slightly-more-human form of one of Turtle House's temple foxes.

He'll be Kiji, my MNF Vampire Elf Shiwoo girl's, familiar... so sort-of a pet, sort-of a helper. I'm toying with the idea of she and her father (Kitsumaru, my BW Harang) being the only ones who ever see him in that form. Usually, he's just a furry little fox-pup.

 

Mine are not pets. My very first doll I ever got is an anthro, so he has set the tone. He is an MSD-sized feline. My Curo is his adopted son. My DZ bunny is also not a pet but is seen as a small child, and then my rodent doll will probably be considered the same.

My dolls have pets, absolutely, but they are a Re-ment cat, some MLPs, and a clay Octopuki, no joints or anything.

 

Definitely not a pet! I wouldn't be surprised if Minnaloushe thought everyone else in the house was her pet. After all, she is a genuine princess, a descendant of the King (or, more to the point if you know much about cat society, Queen) of the Cats. She's also better dressed than either Kiyoshi or me...okay, than the two of us put together.

 

Scabbers - Person in an animal shape.
Binky - Pet Bunny, but with a human personality
Xeno - Human Spirit in animal shape
Loppy - Person in an animal Shape
Princess - Pampered pet.

I think a way to determine Pet vs Humanized Animal, is does the creature talk? If it talks it has more of a human thing to it. Binky doesn't talk, the rest do.

Eh, Hunter is more of Kaiden's translator,since he is mute by choice.
I don't plan on getting anymore pet dolls though.
One is plenty. Trust me

 

My DZ bunny and DZ fox are not pets. Not even close. They are equal to humans, and actually maturity wise both in their 20's, and I consider them older than my Tiny, a DZ Ani, even though they are much smaller than her. Ödi (the fox) does lots of things to help out around the house, but that is more out of a combined friendship and sort of life debt than any actual servitude.

 

Actually most of our tinies are anthros. They are the 'children' of the household. They aren't pets. Are you Kidding? You obviously haven't met PoPo! That Baha doen't play second fiddle to any resin...or human for that matter. LOL!

Often our anthros fit into the stories as 'cuteness relief'. Except in the case of Popo. She'll steal the spotlight and there have been cases where simple photoshoots turn into stories all about our little white 'princess'.

 

I don't have one yet, but I have either a Pipose Curio or DZ Bunny on my wishlist. I guess I figured they would be sort of like the White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland.

 

I don't have mine yet, but he's going to be...*interesting*...
I wouldn't so much call him a pet...
I've got a doll whose character is into altered states of consciousness, and I want my future anthro doll to be blushed in some strange colors and such, and will be the strange "guide" or "omen" thing that he sees when he's in an altered state.

 

Mine are walking talking children who just happen to be animals. I know I've been influenced by all the literature I've read my whole life ... from kid lit right up to modern sci-fi and fantasy, the genres are awash with anthropomorphised characters.

 

my anthros are sort of like a seperate society of dolls at my house... with the exception of my Catsy, the others never associate with my humanoid dolls. this is not really my intention, it just sort of evolved that way... my fook twins are too 'realisitc' for various critter-people to be running amok in their relationships. The Catsy was my first doll so she is exempt from the realisim rule. My other anthros are primarily for novelty, and i doubt they will develop backstories and evolve as characters like my big dolls will.

 

Oh Tillie is just another member of the family...she just is a cat

 

I have both a pipos Baha and a Pipos Curo.
Both of them are pets (to two of my human dolls). That happen to talk the human language! ^___^

 

I have 3 animal dolls now; Pipos Baha and Ringo and a Zuzu kitty. They are kitty people members of my family. I find I am more and more "into" the kitty dolls; I guess I'm a little different from a lot of other folks in that I don't care for fiddling with wigs/shoes, etc. I do, however, like my kitties to be well dressed. They enjoy it too!

 

I have a ringo and then an alice school angel coming. They will be more like best friends for my more humanoid companions- like speaking pets with their own lives and adventures, devoted to their human on their own free will

not that that's how I think of my best friends...

 

Mine are definitely not pets. They are just other dolls that I like and they are set apart from my other bjd's.

 

Mine are separate (they interact with the other dolls, but they're not pets) . . . but then again, I have quite a collection of various catdolls of all sizes!

Separate... definitely not pets. They are their own critters, so to speak.

I have to admit that I haven't had them interact much with my big dolls, so I'm not quite sure exactly how they relate (if at all!). My other tinies (humanoid) are in the same position... I think my tiny world is somewhat separate from my large doll world, although they'll probably pose together at times. And perhaps something may develop in the future... but so far--they are separate.

 

My anthros, Alice and Molly (Alice Cherry Blossom and Pipos Ringo), are the imaginary friends of my Lati Green girl. My adult dolls can't see them.
