These animals are a notch higher than the [[Nearly -Normal Animal]], [[Speech -Impaired Animal]], and [[Talking Animal]], but not quite [[Civilized Animal|Civilized Animals]]. They're [[Partially -Civilized Animal|Partially Civilized Animals]]s!
 
Like the [[Nearly -Normal Animal]], [[Speech -Impaired Animal]], and [[Talking Animal]], the [[Partially -Civilized Animal]] is very much an animal when it comes to thought processes, personality, instincts, priorities, and motivations. They are more frequently depicted as just walking on four legs than on [[Four Legs Good Two Legs Better|walking on two legs]] or [[Running On All Fours|walking both ways]]. Quite a few of them can walk on two legs as well they can on four legs, but they still normally walk on all fours. Like the [[Civilized Animal]], they may wear a few accessories or articles of clothing (often in pantless fashion) and often have some sort of [[Mouse World]].
 
[[Partially -Civilized Animal|Partially Civilized Animals]]s can make human-like arm and hand gestures and many can grasp objects as if they have opposable thumbs. Some are bipedal even if their species isn't naturally so, but many others are depicted as staying on four legs if they are a four-legged animal in [[Real Life]]. Like [[Nearly -Normal Animal]], [[Speech -Impaired Animal]], and [[Talking Animal]] birds, [[Partially -Civilized Animal]] birds can have [[Feather Fingers]], but their wings have to look completely like wings.
 
Unlike the [[Nearly -Normal Animal]], [[Speech -Impaired Animal]], and [[Talking Animal]], [[Partially -Civilized Animal|Partially Civilized Animals]]s exhibit some form of civilized manner, usually to a lesser degree than the [[Civilized Animal]], and often have some form of [[Mouse World]]. Unlike the [[Civilized Animal]], the majority of the mannerisms are that of the animal and they are more likely to be four-legged than two legged if they are naturally four legged.
 
This is between the [[Civilized Animal]] and the [[Nearly -Normal Animal]], [[Speech -Impaired Animal]], and [[Talking Animal]] on the [[Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism]].
