This is an overview of the Utilizator Kemono mesh body for Second Life avatars. While this body is an older one, it’s still a staple for many cutesy style furries and for some anime avatars, so I’ve chosen to include it here. I generally encourage folks to demo, however Kemono doesn’t have a demo. Please be sure any product is what you want and need before buying. For more mesh heads and bodies head on over to The Mesh Directory.

Pros, Neutral Notes, and Cons
Other things of note to consider that haven’t been mentioned above.
Pros
- Kemono is a really cute androgynous body for furries, but also works as an anime human or neko too.
- There are a variety of third party chest options to modify the breasts/pecs.
Neutral Notes
- This is an older body created before things like fitmesh, Omega, and BOM.
- Support is limited, though it’s one of the more popular of the older furry bodies.
Cons
- The body isn’t as responsive to shape changes as newer mesh bodies. Parts of the body, such as the chest, won’t change at all.
- Kemono appliers do exist, but there are nowhere near as many options as the more traditional bodies.
- The hands and tail are bento, but the face is not. So you won’t be able to adjust the look with sliders.
- Kemono is not natively BOM. That said, you can get a kit to make it BOM if you like some of the BOM products made for the head. You can find the kit at the Utilizator store. (When you teleport to the sim you’ll arrive in a subway car. To get to the store just exit on your left, go up the escalator, and follow the road while hanging left. Utilizator will be the first store on the left, and the BOM kits are in a pile in the left side of the store.)
- There is no demo. Make sure this style is something you’re interested in before purchasing!
