FAQ / Questions and Answers: 
Yes, we accept all join requests and are open to submissions from all artists, despite the level of talent.
We are pickier about our affiliates. If you are a relevant Group with over 100 members then feel free to send a request.
Kemonomimi-Club does not endorse or allow advertisements of any kind.
We welcome art from all levels of skill, but we do concern ourselves with presentation quality. Remember to only submit completed work (no sketches, WIPs, etc). For traditional art please scan with care and clean-up before submitting. Consider presentation for your photos, props and written works, as well.
Most of the time when art is declined, it's because something about the picture was against our rules. Please review the rules before inquiring.
Literal translation: "Animal Ears". Humans that possess minimal animal qualities. In this club, we only allow animal ears and a few other things (see below). Kemonomimi are the main, and only, focus of this club.
Literally meaning "animal" or "beast", but used to describe the Japanese equivalent of an anthropomorphic, or "furry", character. They are also called "Kemonobito" (beast-human). Kemono are not allowed in the club.
'Neko' simply means 'cat' in Japanese. It is a common but incorrect term used to describe nekomimi, or cat eared characters. Nekomimi is the most popular form of kemonomimi.
A Hybrid is a combination of a Kemonomimi and a Furry/Anthro/Kemono of any kind. They have extra animal features that Kemonomimi don't normally possess, such as paws, patches of fur, etc. Hybrids are only allowed in this club when they possess the back feet of an animal.
Modern Anthros are more humanistic than Traditional Anthros. They have human-shaped faces so they are often mistaken for Kemonomimi. Modern Anthro are not allowed in the club. (Try Modern-Anthro )
As long as the body of the character is entirely human, only replacing the human ears for animal ears, then most add-ons are okay. Tails are, of course, always welcome. We allow horns to compliment the ears of a sheep, goat or other similar Kemonomimi. We also allow wings, such as angel or dragon wings, as long as they are not replacing the forearms. Bird Kemonomimi can exist in this club if they possess tufts of feathers that resemble ears, owl "horns" or gryphon ears.
Fake ears or "look-a-likes" (hair/ feathers/ fur in the shape of ears) are accepted as long as they actually do resemble animal ears. It doesn't matter if the character depicted can actually hear out of them or not, as long as the kemonomimi look gets across. On that note, hats that include animal faces with ears do NOT count.

About the details, can I submit a nekomimi with cat eyes, or It's against the rules? I consider the eyes as a minor detail, so.. I prefer to ask before submit something xDu

Hm, I'd have to see an example. Most likely it's okay.

can there be long nails to relate to claws? I usually just draw, I usually don't color it in or anything, can I send that type of drawings or do I have to color it in. Because most of my finished drawings are not colored in.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
We don't allow line-art, so your drawing should at least be shaded, the amount of shading can be minimal but must be noticeable. It does not have to be colored.

Hello, I noticed that you disallow unnatural skin colours would: [link] be classed as that because of the stripes that cover the body, due to it being tiger based or would it be okay?

Markings like that are fine. : )

I'm sort of torn. I don't plan on doing any more with this ([link] ) image and I'm not sure if I can submit it here.
I suppose it could be considered a sketch/line art but I wanted to get your opinion first before I do anything ^-^.
If it's not accepted, that's fine, but it's better to ask first ^-^.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it's too incomplete to be accepted. If it was at least colored I would take it, though.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmmm...in that case, I think I might be able to work something out~
*just had an idea*
but anyway, thanks ^-^

I think you posted the wrong link.

I approved that one earlier, are you sure it was denied before? Maybe it just took me some time to get to it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't know let me check because I get the deviations and it was not in the stack of the deviations submitted to the group...hmm maybe it glitched.

I have a question. It was probably mentioned, but knowing me i skiped it. Can you give your charecter a tail with the ears? I'm Just makeing sure!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, a tail would be considered an 'add-on' and they are perfectly welcome.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks for telling me!
I just finished my pic literally 5 minutes ago so...THANKS! You can see it here's the link- [link] do you think it came out ok?

May I suggest making gallery folders for different types of kemonomimi? The Featured folder has grown huge, and it's hard to find specific kinds in there.
Possible set of folders: one each for the most common types within the club (I'm guessing nekomimi and kitsumimi would be among them, for instance) and one for "other" - then you could use the Featured folder for showcasing what you think are the best drawings.

We used to have separate folders, but unfortunately, people weren't very good at categorizing, and it just got a bit time consuming constantly trying to sort everything. I may try again someday, or look for some people who would be interested in helping me sort stuff. Thanks for the suggestion.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Just an idea... But you could set the submissions to be subject to vote, and make it clear in the submission guidelines that anything posted to the wrong folder will be rejected.

Thank you. I feel that this is more true to kemonomimi interests.
One question: do our deviatios have to be accepted to add to the limit-per day?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
>do our deviations have to be accepted to add to the limit-per day?
How do you mean?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
By 'submissions per day', do our deviations have to be accepted first? Ie, is it three submissions per day, or three accepted ones?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
To be honest, I really don't know if it will let you submit more if the others have yet to be accepted, but you can try. Tell me how it goes.
