Furry avatars are used primarily by the furry community in VRChat, and strongly resemble animals with anthropomorphic (human-like) features.

While some consider certain anime avatars (used by fans of Japanese animated media) that have animal-like features part of this category, the primary difference is that furry avatars build on an animal base and add a limited amount of human features, while anime avatars typically start from a human base and add small amounts of animal-like features, e.g. cat ears and tails.

It's difficult to draw an exact line on which avatar constitutes which, especially if both human- and animal-like features are present in equal amounts, and categorizing avatars is ultimately up to the community and the avatar creators.
