Who runs the business?
Our business is run by two talented human beings who act as a dog and shark on the internet! Cass, the main owner, pretty much runs everything, whether that be fursuits, art, marketing, management, social media, customer service, and even this website. Jack, the co-owner, is in charge of helping with fursuit making, helping Cass at conventions, and ensures the studio is in tip top shape. You will always see Cass and Jack working together wherever you go!
Are you hiring for help?

Fursuits
How do I commission you for a fursuit?
Easy! You can find our fursuit prices HERE and get a quote!
Where do I find premade suits for sale?
We have a specific link on our site that leads directly to our premade fursuits! You can find that HERE!
I don't have a proper ref sheet. What do I do?
Needing a ref sheet artist? Our concept artist, Cavox, opens occasionally over on her VGen account!
How long does your work take?
Our current ETA can be found on our Fursuit Trello which can be found HERE. Our ETA is subject to change at any time. Because this is estimated, this is not guaranteed.
Do you have a queue available to the public?
We do! You can find it HERE! Our queues will always be available publicly for our clients and those interested in our work to see what we are cookin' up in the studio.
What's a DTD?
A DTD (also known as a Duct Tape Dummy) is a life-sized mold of your body to ensure that the bodysuit made of your character is perfectly tailored to you. Want to know how to make one? We have a handy tutorial offered by Made Fur You that you can find HERE!
I'm under 18 years old. Can I still get a commission from you, even if it's just a tail?
Unfortunately, we do not offer commissions for minors. However, if you are at a convention and wanting to get a premade, we will sell a premade to you as long as there is a parent/guardian present!
What characters can you make? What characters can't you make?
We can make a variety of different characters and species within reason. Because all of our suits are sewn, we do not offer gradients or airbrushed markings, which could mean your character's design might be simplified. We always discuss with our clients if a character needs to be simplified in any way to ensure we can work together to make a design that is much more friendly for a fursuit.
How experienced are you as a maker?
We consider ourselves professional, having made fursuits for 8 years. We are still improving with each suit we make!
What is shipping like for your suits?
We offer free shipping within the US for our domestic clients. International shipping costs an extra fee, which will be discussed when the suit is complete and weighed for shipment.
Where do you order your materials?
We order our bases from SpiltGrapeSoda for our bases and eye blanks, our furs from BigZFabric & Howl Fabrics, and other remaining materials from Wawak or Amazon.
Do you do fursuit trades?
We do not offer or accept fursuit trades at this time.
