Being a furry is what you yourself want a furry to be. The furry fandom is a broad subject; it has many people in it from all over and it tends to be a large umbrella term for a broad variety of individuals.
When revealing it to your friends do so in a thoughtful and careful manner. You might start by asking your friends if they have heard of them.
And test the waters. You know your friends, you probably have a good idea how they might react. Be willing to anticipate where the conversation might be headed if you discuss it.
I revealed it to my best friend; I knew he would have no issue with it. It went well. He was curious and asked me several questions about it. He then saw my fur-suit and wanted to see me wearing it. This friend knew I wanted a wolf suit when I was in high school. When I put it on and showed him he said "Wow! He is totally you!"
Your friends, those you trust and can talk to about it, will be the most understanding, perhaps more so than your family.
