I dunno, it's a good question why therians experience shifts while other kin types dont seem to experience them, or at least experience them to such an extent.
Honestly I have no idea.
In my case I believe I have human and wolfie traits that co-exist the majority of the time but I do experience mental, spiritual & phantom shifts.
Maybe other kin types are more the co-existing type, or maybe they dont have a split at all between kin/human (except in body) - maybe their soul or spirit or *whatever* is completely kin? Well, maybe therians souls are completely kin as well. I like what someone else mentioned, too, about it being more pronounced, a shift to a more non-human form (well, less "humanoid" form?) ....
Er, not sure! But it's definitely interesting. <!-- s
