How do you meet other furries? You could always try taking an ad in the newspaper (not recommended), or you can do some online hunting for this common internet species. Listen this week as we share our tips, experiences, and warnings.

I am the coyote of the group! This means I am the handsome one, the intelligent one, the one who says all sorts of positive things about himself because he can even though he may be stretching the truth a little. When I'm not hosting or editing the show, you can find me writing the next great furry novel.

nice episode 🙂 I saw a girl in my old school wearing a hat with ears and paws attached to it, and itought she was a furry and I ended up severly confusing her (although she didn’t shun me because we’d talked a bit before) and ended up embarrassing myself XP
I don’t have much to contribute, except for when looking for furry friends or just people you want to hang with, look for more in common than just ‘furry’, which you touched on. then you will avoid all that awkward place where a person you’ve talked to as a friend for two days straight has absolutely nothing in common except for being a fox. 😛
Very informative podcast. I’ve gone through many of those ideas you mentioned. THough FA was more of after I became and have connected with furries rather than TO connect with them. I’ve been through that Furry Locator site, but yeah, a lot of the furries info is several years old so there is no telling who is still there and who isn’t. And is just more of something to show there ARE (or were) others nearby…not necessarily show how to connect with them. I was nevver familiar with IRC’s myself.
I only know furries online. I would like to meet some furries in real life, but I can’t really get out much as my mom is slightly over protective.
You’re still young. I wouldn’t want you going to meets without your parents’ permission anyway.
Of course I would attempt to get permission. If she would say no, then I would not go.
So I finally decided to become open about being a furry and went on the internet to meet some and learn some, but this has not worked for me AT ALL. I have been to almost every site Google offered me and I haven’t been able to chat with/join any discussions, or even cross paths with another furry. This is a cry for help, I need someone to answer my questions or at least tell me I’m not some kind of weirdo. If anyone on this site can help, comment back
I’m sorry to hear you’ve had trouble getting more involved in the fandom. It can be especially intimidating to go to a site for the first time and try to talk without knowing anyone. (For those situations I have found the best solution is to observe for a little bit and see how the flow of conversation works, and bring yourself into the discussion at the appropriate time.)
We can try to help, either through here or via FurryChat. There are a few others out there too but I don’t know which ones you have tried.
Hey Cherry. Names Yurei. What kinda questions do ya have?
