From: Cole Riel I know they have different types in sl. But what's with the cat tails and ears? I think it looks so ridiculous as they are and even more so when worn with regular clothes. [blah blah blah] Pshaw... what's with clothes period? The weather is always comfortable, even if sometimes dramatic. Why bother having legs? We can fly. But we don't have wings unless we want them... that's just wrong. No? Of all the *many* things that don't make sense... *THIS* is the one you pick to rant about? The answer to your question is simple: Neko boys are cuter than trolls.

From: Ann Launay Hedgehogs are fun to play with...that whole rolling up into a ball thing. You just have to remember to use quick taps and not put your paw down full force. They're a fairly long lasting toy, too, due to the protective prickles. Yes, I have fun with hedgehogs. They last longer than mice.

I saw a couple dancing at a formal event. He with a tux and she with a nice gown. They looked nice except they both had cat tails and ears. Is this suppose to be sexy? I've heard it's one reason for it being worn.
Someone told me they also use it in sex as a turn on. A turn on? Sex with animals is a turn on? I mean the involvement of animals and creatures mixed in with human sex in whatever capacity considered a turn on?
Why not wear the entire cat outfit instead of walking around with a tail on your ass and big animal ears. Everyone has their own taste but this looks really lame. If anything, complete animal makeovers look alot better then this and some even look cute and these I wouldn't touch either. I'm not defending any one person or group, but one question: Do YOU look EXACTLY like your RL self? Do you wear the EXACT same clothes? ETA; Oops, that was 2.

Dearly Darlings,
I would wear ears if I could find some that looked good with my purple hair. I did peek at a certain someone's profile...and wouldn't you know it....it's not PG. He's worried about some lovely people wearing cat ears and tails and his profile picture is not following TOS protocol. Darn.
You all have a lovely afternoon.
Ever Yours,
Mrs. Showdog Tiger

From: Lucrezia Lamont Do you suck them very slowly or crunch them very fast? When you eat your mousies, do you eat the black ones last?
I play with them, but they're not very...durable. And I like the white ones best. My inspiration for being a neko comes from 1976. In kindergarten, I used to draw cat girls ALL the time. Sometimes they held flowers, sometimes swords or guns. Now I can do that myself in SL, how cool is that? I also dressed up as a catgirl during carnival. When I first found out that there's a whole Japanese neko subculture, I was mightily surprised! @Lexxi: Oh, glasses make the secretary look? Then I'm a permanet secretary, I guess!  @Mari: Awww....SO cute! I used to dress up like that too! Today I would make a rather portly cat in RL...

From: Alyx Sands @Lexxi: Oh, glasses make the secretary look? Then I'm a permanet secretary, I guess!  There is something about tightly bound hair and prim glasses, but I forget what. Mostly, though, it was just that that particular outfit had some glasses I really liked. The rest of the outfit was bleh, but I liked the glasses.

We should have a forum rule that anyone posting re: how a type of avatar looks stupid should have to post two pictures with the thread- One of the SL Avatar One RL Anything less than a 90% match gets a lock & ban.

I owned a Grand Champion Abyssinian cat. When I can here I made an avatar that reminded me of her. I had no idea that the Japanese had many cartoons and such about Neko until I came here. I honestly thought I was being original.

Abby Same here (well, not a Grand Champion), and I always just let that Japanese Neko thing pass by. Yep, that's it . . um . . I'm not a weirdo, it's a part of a respected culture. I've never seen any of this Japanese Neko stuff.

I just like cats. And I've been accused of having some of their personality traits. I was semi-aware of the Japanese side of it, although I didn't actually realize there was a name for my feline self until I'd already been Neko for a while.

Rhian with her stick insect physique can pull off the dominant secretary bit very welll...I.....am too short for that I guess, I can only do the weird geeky kind of secretary.
