We talk some more about the approaching MFF Size Matters Spectacular (boy, I'm really setting everyone up for disappointment there, aren't I?), read some emails (GUYS WE ACTUALLY GOT EMAILS!!) and continue to be our big goofy selves. Episode 10.5 (2013-11-04)

Okay, so I guess this is kinda becoming a trend...Those of you who don't have a lot of time should probably listen to the OTHER episode. Ya know, the REAL one. Tangents Matter (2013-11-04)

Author: Dear Papa-Bear, Hello, it’s me! Foxy! It’s been a while since my last letter, speaking of which, my big BF doesn’t mind his old man having his way on me as long as I don’t end up crying in the end. Xavier’s father was surprisingly gentle, he’s a dom (dominant) but loves it when someone else […]

Hi! I'm Issacs! I've had an interest in the furries for a few years now; looking at artwork, drawing anthro characters, reading furry comics and the like, but I've only just recently gotten comfortable with the whole "I'm a furry" thing. So, I figured reddit might be the best way to make some friends in the fandom!

My fursona is a grey werewolf with long ears like a rabbit and a bushy tail. He's 21 years old and always wears a turtleneck sweater, cargo pants and a coat with sleeves that cover his hands. (I have a few drawings that I may upload in the future, once I find one decent enough:P)

Anyway, thanks for reading!

Thank you all! I feel so welcome!:3

Hi I am not that new to furry stuff but i am still kinda new. I have never really told anyone that I am a furry because no one in my family would except that and think I am weird. I have only told one friend and he is really close. So other than that I would like one day to go to a convention and stuff and have my own suit. I like the furry lifestyle or what I have seen lifestyle you guys are and I want to do that one day. My fursona is a blue body green haired fox ... Haven't thought about a name or do I need one? I hope to find friends one day that are into furries and we can chill. I am 17 right now so I can really go to cons and stuff. Thanks for reading and sorry for the grammatical mistakes I suck at English. Hope I can talk to you guys and I'll see if I can make my fursona drawing one day.

After a couple hectic years, I've found most, if not all, of my previous ties with the furry fandom severed. Be it due to drama or some subconscious disposition, I can't find myself returning to any of the communities (mostly online) that I found myself involved in before. I still, however, have a desire to return to the fandom and meet some like-minded, yet down-to-earth people with whom I can relate. With this, I've had two impediments:

1) On sites such as FA, I'm immediately scared away by the overwhelming amount of fetish-art and just a general vastness of users.

2) I've tried registering on different sites with several different monikers, from Taox, to Niko, to Adahy, to Fynn. Nothing sticks.

So I have to ask: how can I reestablish myself in the fandom with a constant identity and overall longevity? I know there's no miraculous solution, but advice would be appreciated.

Trying out some new ideas with a new format this week, so bear with me if there’s a few changes!

New Reviews

Some halloween fun with Call of Catthulu, small furry animals against the forces of madness; bovine uberviolence in Killgore; and on a lighter note, crime-fighting canines with A Piggy’s Tale.

New Projects

For a “complete” list of furry/fur-friendly crowdfunding projects, check out the Project Page!

Naomi Bolger’s Art Collection (Art. Ends: 11/12/2013)

Noble superdog and ignoble supercat save lives through the power of empathy and possibly a hairball gun

A Piggy’s Tale

V-e-r-y loosely based on real life events, A Piggy’s Tail, now on Kickstarter, is the action-packed graphic novel story of a good-hearted canine working to rescue and heal animals–and people–in need.

In real life (generally not as fun as the comic version), Piggy was a collie mix that was rescued by the good people of Darwin Animal Doctors, the first animal hospital in the Galapagos Islands (and for a “Where’s Waldo” moment, you can look for the comic version of founders, Tod and Andrea, in the elevator speech video). After being hit by a car, he was rescued by Tod and Andrea, and one of his legs was amputated–after he was shaved he looked like a pink piglet. Thus, “Piggy.”

I’m not sure if there’s more to Piggy’s origin story, but his comic book adventures have been filtered through the Ethan Young, artist for the vegan superhero indie comic “Tails” and not too bad at drawing anthros. After a little creative reworking, Piggy gets a few powers–most important to the story (and I suspect, inspired by the real life pup), his empathy lets him feel other creature’s physical and emotional distress, a sort of fuzzy spider sense. (I know, some spiders are fuzzy, but let me have this one.)

He can also fly, which isn’t generally part of a dog’s power set. That’s okay.

Piggy seems like he falls into the doggy mode of “noble, good-hearted, and trusting,” but his malevolent sidekick Simon, a cat with what I hope is a hairball cannon (otherwise it’s launching lumps of green soggy splatty stuff and I do not want to know what that is…) picks up the slack in terms of street smarts and, I’m guessing, one-liners. Together, they’ve got a great team, ready to clean up animal cruelty and undistress distressed children.

So far as the Kickstarter goes, it’s a nice little package, with some unusual pledge points–there’s the usual swag, tees and stickers and print/PDF, original sketches, walk-on roles in the comic, all those perks that tend to come with a graphically-intense project. But Kickstarters might also get the Piggy theme song by singer/songwriter Rose Lovell, and the Piggy video game. With the Piggy tee, totebag, and theme song, you can totally live the Piggy lifestyle.

All in all, Piggy’s a cute story for young comic readers, and a charming little book for canine fans, well worth a look.
