Of all the Furries that I have gotten to know over the past couple of years, one of my closest and dearest friends has become  RennieFox. Knowing Rennie has been one of the greatest joys of my life. It has been a pleasure merely to observe him in character, for he is always a consummate professional, an endearing entertainer, and a flat-out brilliant improviser. I have understudied his work and frequently use it as an inspiration whenever I find myself in costume.

Rennie and I have spent the last two years celebrating the country’s national birthday, Canada Day, together. This year, Rennie Fox decided that he wanted to go guerilla fursuiting downtown. Just him, me, and my camera.

Here, Rennie greets revilers on the Great White Way—Granville Street—in downtown Vancouver.
