Housepets!

I am finally home! While overseas, I even tried something that I've been told has never been done before: Public fursuiting in old-city Istanbul, Turkey. I didn't get as far as I had hoped, but for a very different reason: So many people reacted positively that I never was able to even get off my ho...

Thanks! You should see the others. I posted them on Weasyl. It's my 'secret' spot for putting the good stuff.

Well, it's been over two months since I posted anything new here, so I thought I would share something I like to call 'Adventure Fursuiting': Take a fursuit, hop on a jet aircraft, land somewhere in a country where nobody speaks your language, put on your fursuit and see what happens. So, I am trave...

DOUGLAS!!
I showed up here to post a photo from my fursuiting in Kyrgyzstan to sort of 'wake up' the thread, but DUDE!

No need for me to post anything! Your suit looks great!!

Just never, ever, ever turn the filters off when using FA.

Pretty much this sums it up for me too; or else whatever I wrote four years ago above^^^.

Foam. I'm going to make the head base out of resin, though. Actually it's nerve-wracking! One mistake and my OCD would never let me forget it. But I think the finished product will be worth it. :) Oh Doug! That's really very awesome! It'll be good to get some more fursuiter Housepets readers postin...

Someone took some video of Tycho Aussie at Anthrocon, in case you might be interested.

I really didn't expect this question to be so hard to answer. I've typed this post a bunch of times, just trying to find the right words to put this into: I'm a furry and that kinda scares me. I mean some parts of this fandom really do creep me out, though maybe I'll get used to it, and the kind of...

A couple of internet friends of mine are in town for the week, so on Friday we're going out fursuiting together. Alisha and her husband Mark are also amateur radio friends of mine. Lonewolf here also does charity work through her church in New York state. We'll be entertaining at the park on Friday,...

I was wondering how to get permission from a charity for a furry group to do fursuiting. Because i notice many charities were i live and was wondering about how to approach the charity and tell them about a furry group that does fursuiting mostly for charities. It starts with an email, a phone call...

Cranking away on python code. I finally got the earthquake relocation model automated, so now I can step through different "models" of the planet, with different seismic velocities in an upper and lower layer of the earth's crust. Then I locate my seismic events, and see which model yields...

Have Tycho Aussie do the research. :) I got asked to bring Tycho Aussie to campus by our union organizers for the big rally in the middle of campus today. I was going to do it at first, then my spidey sense said to not mix politics and fursuiting, so they are just going to have to demonstrate witho...

Jeans and a polo shirt are the usual fare. Merrill hiking shoes with Gore-tex lining. A baseball cap now that I've lost most of my hair on top. Sometimes I wear my Indiana Jones hat from Woolworth. I will ocassionally wear a brown wool sport coat, but I rarely wear a tie anymore. I do own a couple o...

tychoaussie

oooh, I am just a little bit envious!

All I've been able to do thees days is work on college research - not a lot of fursuiting fun for Tycho Aussie these days, it seems :/

This so reminds me of something my oldest son would've done when he was seven or eight years old, had he thought of it first. One time he wanted to see what would happen if he popped a huge bag of popcorn in a pot without the lid: He thought it'd be like fireworks and fill the kitchen chin-level wit...

It shouldnt be a problem since its likely a wireless adapter, anyway.

tychoaussie

Well, at least it won't bend if you accidentally sit on it!

tychoaussie

Agreed,
Cap'n Cougar looks really fluffy and huggable!

Radio Blueheart - Those are some classic photos that I've never seen before - pretty neat. Thanks for finding them.
Yes, movie scale can certainly be a mind-bender - Then again, maybe the Japanese lady is just really, really tall, kind of like Susan (Ginormica).

Necrothread :cry: In any event - a little word on stereotypes: Most people outside of the internet don't know about furries. So you might be the first person they ever meet or hear from that identifies as such. If you are all secretive about it, all they have to do is "google what is a furry?&q...

There was a fursuiter at the mall Saturday. I found out from Scape that you can actually make a career out of suiting. He got an interview to be a mascot for the Charlotte Hornets. When you can do that, its fur suiting on a new level. Radio Blue Heart - That's really cool! Something I have done, bu...

Special photograph from this past weekend: We have been asked repeatedly over the past few months to try and make time, make a trip out to Grand Rapids, and meet with Sage, a young 15-year old artist who has been creating her own fursuits. Sage and her mom & dad met me and my whole family, and I...

I never attended a con until a friend, whose wife had just died, asked if I could meet him at the con. I never had interest in them either. What I found, is that all it takes to meet someone is to open my mouth and start talking. Usually only for a short time. They usually fill in the rest. So meeti...

Now if only I could do that "thing" when I lose my reading glasses.

Accio, Spectaclia!

All mine were donated to my own kids when they were little, and they pretty much loved them to pieces. Now I am my own stuffed animal.

tychoaussie

No problem! I've actually been a HUGE fan of dogbomb, since before I was even a furry, his stuff is awesome. He goes out and fursuits to bring joy into people's lives, and he has so many stories about children he's encountered, from funny to serious! I seriously recommend his stuff to anyone :P Dog...

Yesterday I heard the sparrows chirping from the hole in the vinyl siding of my house, about 32 feet above the ground. This is the fifth season they have done it and I really ought to get around to patching that hole. Plus I heard the robins chirping this morning. So thats another sign of spring.

tychoaussie

Oh pollen!! I almost forgot!!

tychoaussie

For me, it's when i see my first robin at the bird feeder. That is the signal which tells me it MIGHT be spring. The thing that tells me that it IS spring is when I pull the motorcycle out and ride it to work. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B_xOh8wUIAEAfx_.jpg:large One that happens, I follow it up sho...

>whew< I just got back from another overseas trip to central Asia! & I am jet-lagged today. By the way, it IS possible to be a furry, have your family and friends know about it, and actually live a normal life. The trick is to limit your exposure to the internet, especially things like FA, The c...

Bino just can't seem to keep his ego on a leash and he keeps letting it bite him in the hiney.

He must've missed school orientation when he enrolled at the school of hard knocks.

High school was awkward for me - However I get nostalgia feelings whenever I visit the community college - for it was there that I really grew up and felt liberated! I remember feeling top-of-the-world when I turned 20, and I was sitting in the parking lot in my fresh '77 Camaro, new Pioneer stereo ...

Last summer, my family and a few of my friends went to the bowling alley for some fursuit bowling. Another family was there to celebrate a birthday, but the mom who was supposed to bring the cake and party treats didn't show up, so there wasn't anything for the child's birthday but soda pop and pizz...

Using a straw for drinking everything doesn't sound *too* weird... Now, if you saw me at a pub, drinking a beer through a straw while wearing my fursuit, D'you think that might be weirder?

Whenever we get a new snow, I can't but help push the traction control button to the off position and spin out my truck in a nearby parking lot or side street just for fun. My wife hates that. A LOT. My kids though, they are used to it. Call it a woo-hoo moment, if you will. I expect that they will ...

The dupes seem to play just fine whereas the originals were having issues. I'm also looking for a replacement quarterpanel for my daug...
