I, uh, assume "characters with human-like characteristics" means nonhuman characters with human-like characteristics? That would make the most sense for something subtitled 'furry jam', but I want to double-check my assumptions just in case.
Yep, your assumption is correct!
Also: would human characters who take on animal-like characteristics count/quailfy?
Uhh, sure. That's interesting. You mean something like catgirls?
