This question came up in our CoS campaign. Our tabaxi monk was made a member of the Keepers of the feather. The question, could the tabaxi become a wareraven? As we understand it if a tabaxi, or any anthropomorphic race i.e. dragonborn, tortle, lizard folk etc. contract lycanthropy they become something different for example the tabaxi bitten by a wareraven would become a waretiger not a wareraven. Is this right?

Any humanoid race can become a lycanthrope since it's a disease or curse.

Born under the watch of something from the furthest corners of the far realms.... It knows all.... it sees all... and it asks: "What is it that you want to see?"... and my answer is... ALL"

There rules in the Monster Manual that cover this under the 'Lycanthropes' section and also talks about Non-human Lycanthropes as well. Essentially you retain your race and take on the curse. You might not be able to hang on to all of your racial traits though. A Tabaxi Wereraven is definitely possible.
