Zoanthropic
Pertaining to or marked by zoanthropy. Zoanthropy is a delusion that one has developed the form and characteristics of an animal, such as a cat or a dog. A delusion is a persistent false belief that is strongly held despite clear evidence that the belief is actually false. Zoanthropic comes from the Greek word "zoon" meaning "animal," the Greek word "anthropos" meaning "man," and the Greek word "ikos" meaning "pertaining to." Put the two words together and you have "pertaining to animal man."
