My dear friend Dennis Avner "Stalking Cat" is dead.

Furry Reddit - Mon 12 Nov 2012 - 05:41

I spoke to the Sheriff in Tonopah NV today and confirmed that Dennis Avner was indeed dead. They will release the cause of death in about a week I am told as soon as they speak with his family.

You may have agreed or disagreed with the choices he made to modify himself to take on attributes of a tiger. As a close friend of his I can say much of the media made up a lot of BS that was said about him.

He was a dear friend who sought to mold himself into his own dream with what tools were available. He suffered a huge amount of pain over the course of his transformation. I was blessed enough to be his friend and to be able to listen to his reasons for it.

They were not insane reasons , nor stupid or ones that psychologists and psychiatrists would often spout without knowing the man. spitting out the clinical diagnosis of dismorphic and self hate at the drop of a hat.

He was a major supporter of the furry community and enjoyed going to the conventions. If you ever took time to talk with him you would have discovered how much the community mattered to him.

Of all the things I can say about him, this is the most important

He wanted more, He wanted to be more and to be free to be that which he dreamed. And he took to the task of trying to make it real... As real as dreams could be.

For those who mourn him you have my devout sympathy. For those who mock or hate him for what he looked like. You have my sympathy for not truly knowing the man.

Furry News Network - Mon 12 Nov 2012 - 00:24

It was becoming increasingly evident that my interest in Lion King fandom had run its course and probably wouldn’t stick with me much [...]

The Fans Have Spoken!

In-Fur-Nation - Sun 11 Nov 2012 - 18:26

It’s become evident that My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is not the only animated TV series that has taken some interesting twists and turns thanks to on-line fan input. Fans of Adventure Time with Finn and Jake became obsessed with the idea of a gender-swapped variation on the popular series after the idea popped up on the Internet. And thus Fionna and Cake, human and cat, were born. Well now Boom! Studio’s Kaboom! line have added to their Adventure Time line with the premier of the new Fionna & Cake 6-issue mini-series (in full color).  Here’s a write-up from Jim Hill Media: “The highly anticipated series will be written and illustrated by none other than the characters’ creator and Adventure Time storyboard artist Natasha Allegri with a full 32-page first issue. Join Cake the Cat and Fionna the Human in this totally algebraic new adventure! When Fionna rescues a feral flame boy from a pack of wild fire lions, it starts her on a quest she’ll never forget…” It all starts this coming January.
