Actually, Nekos and the like aren't anthros but rather demi-humanoids with animal features. Anthros, I believe, would be classified as animals, fully fur-covered or scale-covered, with human features. It's a semantic but it makes a huge difference.
However, I do stand by Para's other point - right now they don't sound like a very unique idea at all. Just the fact that you have stated that they don't eat people makes me think that you're making this idea for yourself and not for Felarya. Know what I mean?
