The website dedicated to everyone who thinks furries are cool.
Furry fandom is an artistic and literary genre dedicated to anthropomorphic animal characters, commonly known as furries. Furry fandom began as a fusion of science fiction, comic book, and animation fandom during the 1980s, and has since thrived and grown, evolving into its own branch of fandom and finding adherents all over the world.Recent media attention has made the public more aware of this growing fandom. Our members include professional sports mascots, animators, cartoonists, puppeteers, artists, illustrators, and writers. The amount of creativity and talent furry fandom has to offer is truly amazing. No wonder everyone loves furries! Discover for yourself why furries are the Next Big Thing!

Long time no update. Just wanted to mention UCLA's Daily Bruin has a good article on furry fandom: Hidden Tales: Long misunderstood furry fandom finds its home on the Internet, at annual conventions. It focuses on two UCLA students, Ian Martyn and Brett Mommaerts, and gives an accurate overall picture of the fandom. This is the sort of article we like to see.

Furries have made it into the Guinness Book Of World Records! According to the 2008 book, Anthrocon is 'largest furry fan club', due to the 2,489 attendees at the 2006 convention. That record has already been broken by 2007 total attendance of 2,849. Here's hoping the world's largest furry convention breaks the record again in 2008!

Pointing out the positive press furries get is a thankless job, but someone's gotta do it. So I guess I will.
Rocky Mountain Fur Con got mentioned not once but twice in the news last month.
On another note, LatinVixen's video featuring a bunch of fursuiters dancing around an Escalade (I assume at MFF last year) made it onto BoingBoing, The Directory Of Wonderful Things.
And this just in, a brief mention of furries at Walt Disney World. The Orlando theme park has added costumed characters to promote the movie Ratatouille, which opens in theaters June 29th.

Happy New Year! We've noticed there are some cool furry videos on YouTube that you may be interested in. The first one is a short documentary about furries that takes place at a furry convention in Vancouver. The other one, Yay For The Backflipping Fox shows an example of some of the fun antics that happen at furry conventions.
We hope to expand our collection of furry videos here soon!
