Moonraiser receives his stocking on Christmas 2019

Hey all, most likely Christmas has come and gone, but if it is still Christmas when you stumble upon this blog post, I just want to say that I hope you are enjoying your Christmas day! In the Spirit of the holiday season I decided to tell some more real life furry stories. This time I would like to talk about my most recent furry adventures this Christmas season. In particular, I wanted to talk about the ones that include family.

So as you have all figured out by now, I just love to wear my fursuit. I’ll find the dumbest excuse to wear my fursuit, no matter how silly it may be. For example, against the advice of my Fiancee I went to a family Christmas party on her side of the family dressed up in my fursuit. My reasoning: I had come down with a cold and wearing a fursuit was my only way to keep from spreading the cold. Needless to say, when I got there I got a few weird looks. However, the strange thing was that I didn’t really mind much about it, and this is coming from a guy who gets uncomfortable if I even look at someone funny. It was such a short party, and this social exchange is pretty typical for a lot of furries that fursuit in public, but it was still super significant to me. It showed just how comfortable I am with expressing my furry self with other people.

Another family related exchange involving the Christmas season occurred recently when I spent some time up in the mountains. For the last couple of days I’ve been spending time in a condo next door to my brother in laws family, and just like the Christmas party that I attended a few days prior I decided to make a surprise visit with my fursuit. This time though I had no excuse, as I explained later that I wore my suit cause I just wanted to wear it. It was during Christmas Eve dinner, and upon the arrival of my brother in laws family, I crept up behind one of the guests and they let out a loud scream as they turned and saw a fluffy werewolf staring at them. Everyone burst out laughing and it was a super fun exchange. It even allowed for some more furry related conversations to happen over the course of the night, as I told my brother in laws family more about my furry lifestyle.

So what did I learn from all of these Christmas parties? I learned that no matter how weird you may appear, family and friends will more often than not accept you for who you are. Not only that, but by being yourself you are given the opportunity to enlighten others, and dispel myths. I think a lot of furries would be surprised at how supportive their family and friends can be regarding their furry lifestyle, and at the end of the day as long as you are not hurting anybody, then what is the problem? In fact one could argue that the Furry Fandom is more helpful than anything. Furries really give a lot to the community, and I really hope they keep on giving. Anyway, I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a happy holidays! Stay Fuzzy Y’all!
