It's very unclear and therefore not a good definition. (It could equally well describe native Americans with a totemic animal, which is hardly the same thing, obviously.) OED says for "furry":
Also with capital initial. An enthusiast for anthropomorphic animal characters, esp. a person who dresses up in costume as such a character or uses one as an avatar in a computer-generated environment. For some enthusiasts, this interest has a sexual dimension.
That seems a bit clearer though I can't vouch for its accuracy.
