And I'm on the side of observing what people who call themselves "furries" have in common, and use that as an explanation of what furry is. Not all who fits this explanation will be furries, that's okay.
Remember, not everyone who likes Star Trek is a science fiction fan, not everyone who supports their local sports team is an sports-fanatic, not everyone who likes a good meal is a foodie.
We don't want to make people feel that furries are "pushy". Be patient, but welcome them to events, fora, art sites, and communities. If they like what they see, they'll want to be furries.
