I think you need to set a few ground rules when it comes to anthros:
Do they grow to human size or stay the same size?
Do they wear clothes? If so, do they disappear when they go to animal form?
How human or animalistic do they look?
Do they keep their instincts, abilities, or above human senses?
Are they still limited to the food they eat as animals in terms of what they can digest?

They usually grow to be their normal animal's size. This is why the Dogs do not have their home Underground and are not able to be anthro in their homes. Dogs grow the largest of the three, but it's usually only to about a maximum of four and a half feet tall. Mice and cats get about as tall as they would be if they were as animals standing on their hind legs.

They wear clothes (generally), unless they have enough fur that it is unnecessary. However, the norm is that you wear clothes to remove all doubt about whether you're in anthro or not (if your anthro is more animalistic, that is).
Clothes disappear and reappear during transformation.

Anything more animalistic than the anthros and such above^ still count as anthros, but once you walk on all fours, you're an animal. Any more human than the "pushing the line" and you're human.
Instincts stay, they lose some of their abilities, but still have heightened hearing, sight (if applicable), and smell.
Their diet is still limited by their species. If you open a business, make sure to supply at least some of what that species can eat (see the Park for specifics).

So in other words, human interaction would be pointless anyway because even if you went for the kemonomimi (human with animal ears and tail) look and excused the animal parts as costumes, your size is another matter entirely. A Dog can at best explain their size as Dwarfism but a Mouse is basically the size of a Borrower.

The point is that humans don't know that certain Cats, Dogs, and Mice can do this. So they wouldn't be interacting with humans as anthros anyway. It's forbidden.
