i know this is for a certain audience, and i loved reading through it, the story felt really nice, but i dont get the reasoning for why anthropomorphic animals without doing much to justify it. Ive heard people tell me in the past that its symbolic or something else, but with these characters, i could see as people and I do not know if this story had to be told with a bear, a bat, a pigeon, a goat and a ermine. Maybe I'm not getting something about furries in general so I hope to understand eventually, but still, a really great read!
