Unwanted Person in Fursuit Parade Anthrocon 2025

Anthrocon was made aware of a controversial individual who participated in the Fursuit Parade on July 5th, 2025. After careful review with our team members, we believe that this individual specifically and intentionally circumvented our Event and Safety measures (including costume review) with the intention of causing a scene and disruption.

We want to reassure the members of our community that this individual  is not allowed membership at Anthrocon now or in the future. Given the urgent and sensitive nature of the individual’s actions, we took special exception to our policy of not discussing bans or banned individuals as we want our attendees to know that we hear them and take their concerns seriously.

Anthrocon strives to be a positive and supportive member of our furry community. The Anthrocon staff and venue partners want to thank everyone for their patience and information as we endeavor to host the best furry event that we possibly can. Sincerely, Anthrocon, Inc.

Anthrocon & Poodling Update

Examples include combos of:
๐Ÿฉณ Underskins/sleeves/leggings
๐Ÿ‘š Comfortable (and stylish!) clothing
and more!

Looking for more examples and tips? Though not official, Telephone has recently made a video that might be helpful for inspiring some costumes and ensembles to go with your character.
