It’s time to pick who you feel should win the Good Furry Award.
The List is long https://www.unclebearpublishing.com/2025-nominees.html#/ and the descriptions help. Everyone from Yappy Fox to Alkali is there and I already know who I am voting for. But I can not influence anyone, and I am not saying who I voted for. It is only fair.
What Is the Good Furry Award?
The Good Furry Award is an annual award that debuted in 2019. Furries nominate and select a fellow furry (or furries, you may nominate as many as you wish) whom they wished to recognize for outstanding spirit in the furry community. The awards were hosted on the “Ask Papabear” advice column website until 2024, but they are now being proudly hosted here at Uncle Bear!
Winners will be announced at this year’s Another Furry Con in Ontario, California, this September!
Winners will receive a handsome trophy and a cash prize of $200 each!
There are three category winners each year, plus the Lifetime Achievement Award:

This year Grubbs Grizzy is doing something different The Awards this year are divided into 3 categories.
The Good Egg Award
This prize is for furries who do charitable and other volunteer work, such as helping out at furcons, raising money for animal charities, or doing work in their non-furry communities.
The Image Award
This prize goes to furries who present a positive image of the fandom through the media, including YouTube videos, documentaries, vlogs, podcasts, websites and other similar means of communication.
The Furtastic Award
This prize is basically for furries doing good works that don’t easily fall into the first two categories. It could also apply to a furry who you believe is just an all-around wonderful, lovely person, even if they might not do charity work or do something in the media.
Your not going to see me bash any of the nominees as I know 3 of them, and they all follow me on social media.
It would show favoritism if I happened to mention their names. Although I did interview 1 twice for my blog… Joe Strike who is a pretty cool guy. In my opinion well deserved.
Just listing the names, let alone what they did to deserve the nomination is wrong but check out what has been said.
The 2024 Good Furry Awards are now open to receive nominations. This is the sixth year for the program, which is sponsored by the “Ask Papabear” advice column and Uncle Bear Publishing. It recognizes furries who have generously given their time, skills, or money to help the furry community, promote a positive image of the furry fandom, or otherwise help animals and people anywhere in the world. For the past five years, the award has gone to one person, with honorary mentions to three others. This year will be different. There are now three categories for the award and one furry will win in each category: The Good Egg Award: For furries doing good deeds for others. The Image Award: For furries in various media promoting and informing about the fandom. The Furtastic Award: For furries doing any other good deeds not falling into the first two categories. There will also be a Lifetime Achievement Award for the third year.
