    Yeah, as a group, furries have been some of the nicest “hobbyists” I’ve ever run with.

    Back about eight years ago, I was in Pittsburgh during a furry convention. It was so damn fun hanging out around the city with the furries just casually enjoying themselves. Every day, up and down the elevators, there would be people suited up and just happy.

    The experience took me from bring pretty much neutral on the matter, a kind of “it’s a free country” thing, to being glad furries are a thing. And I am! The idea of all these people dressing up and having fun makes me happy

        If there’s ever one closer to home, I plan on going with my kid. They’ve got s couple of online friends that have fursuits, so there’s been a good bit of curiosity. Too dang hot here in the south for much in the way people wearing them away from group stuff indoors lol

          At this point there’s a con happening all over the country all throughout the year. Dunno where “south” is for you but the big one I know about is Texas Furry Fiesta in Dallas in March.

          Granted Texas has like 4 of them going nowadays by itself lol.
