The What is a Furry? Survey was a short survey hosted on Google Forms with the intent of gathering data on the beliefs of the furry community and those who are familiar with the furry community. It was advertised in several online locations, including: Toyhouse, furry groups on DeviantART, the furry Reddit, Tumblr, and Furrypile.

It required 11 multiple choice questions as well as one optional written response and gathered 162 responses, including from the surveyor herself. The results may be viewed here.

The survey did not include questions about where respondents came from. However, Toyhouse users were especially responsive and quick to take the survey, as the first day the survey was open it was only advertised on Toyhouse. A large majority of these original responses were not furries, but one should note their responses were relatively the same as actual responses from furries.
