Shape shifting for animal care huh? Nice.

I really thought it fit her superpowers and it's less risky than FIGHTING CRIME.

A nice occupation for a shifter.

Indeed!

That's actually a pretty cool application for people who are shifters.

Yeah, I'm really pleased with it.

Nah I'm pretty sure that's Cassie, not Lindsey. Must have just made a mistake, there :P

Well played.

-gives a slight bow-

Animorphs reference?

Yes! :D

It's an interesting way to use this kind of powers. ^^

It is!

I can only echo others; that is a really cool use of shapeshifting!

Dominus tecum

Yeah, I like this idea. Thanks to Temple Grandin for even making me aware this field is a Thing.

She looks cute here. :) I imagine such abilities would make that job easier. ;)

Fantastically so!

Do you know what this job's title would be? :)

"Animal welfare consultant" is what I feel would fit.

Got a better one?

Makes sense to me. :) Seems like an excellent use of her talents. :)

Shifters as veterinarians. A natural occupation.

Something like that, although Lindsey's more into animal welfare than straight veterinary work.

So, does she just play with them or does do more?

No, she evaluates what's wrong, and tries to understand why there's problems by dealing with the instincts she gets, and with being able to more easily communicate her words.

I can see why this is still your featured submission; it's great ;).

And it only recently became my featured sub! But it was a good choice. :)

It's great ^^.

She looks beautiful!

The whole reason this pic exists is that I liked how she looked in Critique and wanted to see more of it. Because the partial snep hair looks great...enough so it's become a major tell for her. :)

Aaaand faved! Working with animals and being able to Feral-TF and back again is such a lovely topic!

One more for you! https://www.furaffinity.net/view/28863514/

And yeah, it really fleshed out the character.

Amazing! <3 Thanks for sharing. You got any more of those?! I'll Fave them all!

Hope you enjoy!

Thank you so much, I surely will! ❤️Looks like she would go well with my snow leopard hunter dude ^^

She might! Though hunting is something she has issue with...she's struggled morally with the idea of hunting and how animals are treated. Like, sure, everyone has to eat. The problem is that there's some forms that she struggles with. Big game hunting, poaching, factory farms, bad zoos...basically the core theme for her is kinda "Superhero to animals".

I took some pages from Temple Grandin's worldview and a few others places.

I am certain then that she wouldn't mind the kind of fantasy hunting I usually come up with. Where everything is super happy and consensual ^^

Sounds unusual, unless it's just a game of tag or paintball or something. Seen that in fiction sometimes!

She does try. :)

That depends where she got the sample from for her shapeshifting. She essentially emulates the species, so if she got fur from a feral snow leopard, she'd be feral, and if she got it from an anthro snow leopard, she'd go anthro.

That's the basic gist at least. Sometimes I bend the rules a bit for art or story cohesion.

Good for speaking out against animal cruelty and neglect! 🐈

It was certainly a good idea to help make the character work!
