Furry Experience

"Comedy. Drama. Furries."

Started in August of 2009, Furry Experience follows the lives of Dawn, Ronnie, and Cat, three college age girls who share an apartment. According to author Ellen Natalie, most of the hijinks the girls get into are Based on a True Story from her own life or on a "what if" scenario in the area she lives in.

The story is a Slice of Life style that revolves around the girls' interactions at home, at college, and at work, alternating between showing them together and giving each A Day in the Limelight. The three girls also fit very nicely into The Three Faces of Eve, with Dawn (a doe) as the Motherly One, Cat (a cat) as the Childlike One, and Ronnie (a rabbit) as the Other One.

The comic is hosted here.
