Just when we thought we’d seen every kind of bizarre, niche dating site, one such as Furry Mate comes along. Apparently, people like to dress up like cartoonish furry animals, even when it’s not Halloween, and they’d like to find others who share the same passion. Furry Mate – where real relationships begin, promises to help you find a furry friend, or a furry mate, or just random people to meet up and exchange furry stories with at a furry convention. One of the things that’s baffling is, if you and your partner are dressed up as furry creatures, how is that a real relationship?!

Love well written stories, writing with passion, baking lip-smacking-finger-licking chocolate cakes, engaging movies, and home-cooked food.
