Starting out with your Furby

1
Name your Furby. If it's a boy, name it Lucas, Kyle, Tyler, Maximus, Paul, etc. If it's a girl, name it Lulu, Tina, Lindsey, Jamie, Sammy, etc. After all, you might get tired of saying "Furby". Why not have something different? If you have an old Furby, find out about it's real name, and make a nickname if you want!
2
Find some cute clothes. You can make or buy headphones or a dress or a pair of glasses. Anything you really want; you can also leave your Furby without clothes.

If you share your meal with Furby, only use imaginary food. Real food and water will break your Furby.
