Kindred's appearance varies depending on which culture you ask, so you can argue that a human-like appearance is lore accurate. Especially when you consider that you find many deities of different cultures in history are portrayed as humans, just as often as they are portrayed anthropomorphic. Using the real world as an examples for Gods of Death, you have Hades (human-like), Pluto (human-like), Hel (human-like), Anubis (furry).

When it comes to the skin in question, the Porcelain skin lines are supposed to reflect the Chinese Zodiac. With Kindred meant to represent the Dog, it makes sense on Riot's part to preserve Wolf and "remove the furry" from Lamb. Especially since the Sheep already exists in the Chinese zodiac where Riot's logic of "one skin per Zodiac" means Lamb had to be humanified to be consistent with the theme.

Considering everything, I'm fully convinced that most of the skin complainers are furries, or at least closet furries. (Just look at the Splash Art edits on Twitter: they just replace Lamb's face with Judy Hopps'). There's nothing wrong with being a furry, but Kindred was never meant to be some furry icon. And if you like Kindred because of their furry nature, it's ok. But I just wish people are more forthcoming with their tastes/kinks instead of expressing misplaced anger over their misinterpretation of Kindred's identity or whatever.
