The saddest thing about this is that they don't feel comfortable being a furry even around their close friends. :( Sounds like they need new friends.

Sounds normal to me. It's healthy to have separation in your life

It's not healthy to repress part of who you are or what you enjoy and hide it from everybody (yes, some, like your boss and coworkers maybe, but not all). It's nice to have a couple IRL people with shared interests or who don't mind.
