Aurora Borealis

Aurora Borealis?! At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely above those two otters going at it like maniacs, grunting and thrusting and making a mess all over the beach?!

Yes. And they apparently don't care who sees it. In fact, from the look...

The biggest rat you've ever seen walks in

You're sitting there at your favorite bar, unwinding after work, when the door gets nudged open awkwardly and in walks the biggest rat you've ever seen. Really more of a half-rat half-girl, wearing the tatters of her leather jacket. She plods over to the bar with all eyes staring at her, her move...

Gotta stay flexible

"Oop! Yeah, check this out! I'll be honest, I owe most of this kind of flexibility to becoming a cat...I never could've done this before. Got its upsides and downsides, though...yes, I can lift my foot over my head, but the girls kind of get in the way. I can parkour with the best of 'em now, but...

A cowgirl, of course (Animated)

"Ever since I was a young girl, I knew I wanted to grow up to be a cowgirl...didn't mean it quite like this, but I made it work anyway. Pretty easy to get hired on a ranch when you can demonstrate an affinity with the animals, really get on their level and vibe with them, keep them calm. 'Course ...

Seems a bit dangerous (Animated POV BJ)

"Oh, geeze. To think I would want to hurt you...I know I'm a lion, but I'm still a person! If you were really worried I was gonna maul you, I feel like you'd think better of questioning my motives. I'd probably be offended if I didn't think the idea was so funny. You don't know anything about me,...

Nothin' goin' on behind this towel (Animated)

"I beg your pardon? I come to this sauna to relax, to chill out after dealing with people gawking at me all day...not my fault I turned into a rat. Anyway, I'm just...itchy. It's all this humidity, it reacts with me in weird ways. Makes me feel...y'know, warm inside. A-ah! Oooh...erm, ignore that...

Dog walker (Animated)

"Yes, you are correct. I'm a dog, and I'm walkin' here. Haha, but seriously, you're right, you HAVE seen me around town walking dogs. That's how this happened to me, actually. One of those prima donna shibas got a little frisky and bit me, and a few days later I ended up like this. Her owner apol...

How about here, is this a good spot?

"Well? How's this spot? You keep marching us all over these woods...saying 'we're squirrels now, we need to act like it, find a spot to hole up in the forest'...but I feel like any spot's as good as any other. Why pretend we need to put down roots, anyway?

I'll show you the only thing you n...

Licken sie schlicken

"Here, let me help you with that...y'know, you're not very furry yet, that'll come in due time, but at least you're soft right here. Oh, my whiskers tickle you? You haven't felt anything yet....let me know where you want me to focus, whether I should get right to the good stuff, or tease you a bi...

Legs up, Buttercup

It was too much, just too much...her skin was crawling, her entire body was on fire. Nothing felt right...she panted, hyperventilating, and even the rise and fall of her chest was an alien sensation. There was too much of her...every bit of her was shifting and twisting, dragging her into an exis...

When you meet a fox

Many people go their whole lives without ever seeing a wild fox. If you do happen to meet one, just stay calm, observe it and treasure the experience, maybe take a photo or video on your cell phone.

Don't throw a rock at it to chase it off. If you do throw anything at it, you'd better have ...

A support group of two (Animated)

The support group for managing feline transformation-related trauma and lifestyle challenges had dwindled over the years down to only two. This was primarily due to the fact that involuntary feline transformation had been all but eliminated due to a cheap and effective treatment which was now cov...

Filling the tub (Animated)

She really filled the tub now, much to her chagrin. There was still plenty of room, but she was used to...more room. Less of her. She snorted and watched the steam in front of her snout flutter.

She would never be used to it, would she? Feeling all bloated...her skin a sickly purplish grey....

Now THAT'S a mane! (Animated)

One of those days when you're out hiking, minding your own business, and you hear the roar of a waterfall nearby, and decide to check it out, and then you stumble across...her. Standing there, seemingly unperturbed by your intrusion, getting ready for a nice, natural bath. So, yeah, she's a lion ...

Sorry, kitchen's backed up (Animated)

"Yeah, I know I look like I'm just wasting time here...I've already been around to all the tables several times, nobody needs anything. I'm waiting for peoples' orders but they're so backed up in there. Part of the issue is that all the cooks turned into dogs too so they have to deal with full-bo...

From one dog to another...

"Hahh...oh, keep at it, big boy, don't leave me hangin'...mmmm...these guys never learn. They see who I am, what I am, this hairy dog body...I warn them that I'm contagious and they might not be a fan of what they end up as, and still they throw themselves at me. I love the feeling when the mushr...

A bumper crop

Everything was coming together nicely, it looked like this year might be a record crop. It was his idea to celebrate out in the field, among their bounty...she thought it was silly, and was a bit uncomfortable at being outside naked, even if there was no risk of anyone seeing.

As he started...

Don't lose a wizard's duel

It all happened so quickly...it usually does. One witch or wizard thinks they've got everything figured out, and soon learns that they don't. And it's always over something petty...some slight or insult disproportionate to the long-lasting, dangerous spells being slung around. In this case, it wa...

The Paint

"Well who do we have here? Another one ready to try the Paint? I was just putting the finishing touches on myself...think I like this shape. Yes...any more or less could upset the balance...

Here...just start brushing it on. It's impossible to do it wrong, every line and spatter draws you t...

Goldilocks Syndrome (Animated POV)

She'd warned you about this, it was your own fault for not taking her at her word, no matter how crazy it sounded. Goldilocks Syndrome, she called it. Turns you into a bear whenever conditions are "just right," whatever that meant. Well, it must've meant this...when you're halfway through some of...

Watch those candles (Animated)

"Yeah, you know how much I get turned on by your little 'rawrs,' I just...are all these candles really necessary? Don't get me wrong, I like candles, they're cool, but I feel like we're gonna end up kicking them over if we start fooling around. Can we blow some of 'em out? Please?

Feels wei...

Dalmatian Droop (Animated)

"No, this wasn't supposed to happen...at least, I don't think it was. They were just regular Dalmatian pills, I've done this several times before and nothing like this has ever happened! Ohhh...they're so heavy...

No, I don't think you understand the issue here...I can't just wait for it to...

You're gonna go get help, right? (Animated)

"You're coming back, right?! You're not just gonna leave me like this? Sorry, sorry...I know that's crazy...I trust you, my mind is just...I-I'm panicking, I'm sure you can understand that! Gotta...take some deep breaths...oh god, even breathing is a struggle in this bloated body, and I feel my w...

The Motel Painting

From the moment she entered her motel room, she hated the painting. A massive picture of a mooing cow - mooing or moaning - realistic, raw, drawing the eye and dominating the space. She almost tried to take it down, but her timidity won out...what if she damaged it somehow, what if housekeeping n...

One needy cat

"Honey...? I think something's wrong with the neighbor girl again. Yeah, I just glanced out the window across at hers and it looks like she's turning into a cat. Just yowling and moaning up a storm...she's kind of...gyrating and grinding or something...what?! Hey, I'm just describing factually wh...

Here, may be your last chance

"Here, it's still mostly on the human side of things, but probably won't be for long. You want to hit it one more time for old time's sake?

I don't know how you found me out here. No, I didn't go into this with any forethought. Do I look like I considered the ramifications of turning into a...

I see twelve

"Well, this is awkward. Guess we were bound to run into someone eventually when we came down here to shower...yeah, um, nice to meet you.

I'm sure you're wondering about...all these. It's kind of a long story...experimental drug trials, three college girls who need cash, gross negligence, s...

Cow Breath (Animated)

"And here's another of our specimens...one of your duties here will be to make sure she's hooked up nice and tight to the pumps with no leakage. Our last technician got a bit lazy on that front, we might stop by him...her later.

Look at 'er, panting...wasn't thinking, didn't realize it was ...

Primate research in practical terms (Animated POV)

"Hoo...I can't tell you how much I've needed this...didn't expect that going simian would have such an effect on the sex drive. Should've known...the way monkeys are...haahh...pheww...

Believe it or not, I drew the short straw. The rest of the research team took full doses and went feral......

Donkey sway my way (Animated)

"Whoaa, looks like you've had a bit too much to drink...no, I don't mean the swaying, I mean the fact that you've taken off all your clothes and you're mostly a donkey. You knew the punch in the left bowl was donkey punch, right? Most people were avoiding it for...just this reason. Some people ha...
