Flod, the Furry fandom was originally a fandom dedicated to what used to be called "funny animals". A "funny animal" is pretty much exactly what it sounds like; animals that can talk like people and make you laugh. In other words the fandom was originally centered on cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse.

Over time, said fandom(like pretty much every fandom ever; seriously, you don't want to see some of the Star Trek slash-fic out there) started picking up its share of people with kinks and fetishes, and the sexual aspect started to appear. Fast forward 30 years or so, and KC's drawing a cat for you to fuck.

There's actually a more fancy way of saying it: "Anthropomorphic." Definition of an anthropomorphic object: Any object that is not human that has been given human characteristics.

Definition of a Furry: An anthropomorphic animal.

The Cait Sith is anthropomorphic. Therefore, the Cait Sith is a Furry.
