Fursuiting: For the kids, and the kid in all of us - Third Edition!

Thanksgiving Day is a very appropriate time to post this, the highly-anticipated Third Edition of my video series: Fursuiting: For the kids, and the kid in all of us, a gift to my subscribers and really everyone in the Furry fandom! I am so thankful to you all for your support and for the opportunity to inspire and bring joy to others through fursuiting.

After the second edition got nearly 14,000 views in 11 months and many people told me this video series inspired them and brightened their day, I figured it was time to put out another one with some of my best footage from the past year.

As always, I mixed in some awesome still photos from my archives and some more uplifting, positive music for your enjoyment.

I never anticipated the tremendous positive response I got from the first two "Fursuiting" videos and I am excited and thrilled to present this to you all and hope you enjoy it.

There is truly nothing like putting on a costume and brightening someone's day by giving them a hug or high-five, especially children.

Seeing those smiles and laughter that you have created reminds you of the "magic" that fursuiters have, the ability to suspend the notion of reality as you perform in character for others.

I hope this puts a smile on your face and reminds you of that special gift that fursuiters have.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! - Kijani Lion

It's great to see this kind of positive attitude. You see the aggression toward furs and all the misunderstanding and hatred and not-so-heartwarming business from all sides so often on the internet, it's easy to forget that in REAL life furries can do so much good and bring smiles to everyone, young and old.

I could never fursuit, myself. But I have a level of respect for those who do. It can't be easy being on the other side of those suits...

@Hobo84foryou Yep, definitely true, and that's why I do what I do, to try and curb that aggression and misunderstanding and show the real side of what those in the furry fandom can do to make a positive impact. Thanks very much for your respect and support! It's not easy performing in a self-contained oven but those smiles and positive reactions make it all worth it.

[Gojirafeet66]

As I mentioned before, such a cool song & video... Savage Garden is one of my favorite artists, ever since "I Need You" was released...

[Gojirafeet66]

This is so cute... Very emotional when you listen to the lyrics to the song... How true those words are :-)... Thanks for such a great video...

[cgangsoldia1]

U guys are awesome! Great job!

[Erathon13]

I just love this, can't belive that I didn't know about furries before

[ScuppetBabyy]

@squeak83uk2 West wales :( But thank youu! I'd love to go to confuzzled this year but I wouldnt have the guts to go to a Con on my own haha. My search for fur friends has failed many times >.<

[squeak83uk2]

@ScuppetBabyy Where abouts in the uk you from? theres confuzzled in the uk in Leicestershire once a year, and as for furs try ukfur.org i been to a few meets, and its fun, i also see a few furries at the mcm expos in london and the midlands.

[TheFlailingWolf]

I can feel the diabetes setting in. This is just too cute! I'm starting to finish up my first fursuit myself; I hope I can bring just as many smiles to the children too. :3

[ScuppetBabyy]

I'd love to have my own fursuit but I'm british and that means no Conventions to go to and I don't know anyone here who are interested in them either.. But I absolutely adore this video. It's this sort of video that could change the mind of all the fursuit haters.

[XTheKatzchenGrenadeX]

You guys are just amazing, I wish to meet you one day.

I have loved furries ever since I was a younger kid, one saved me at this fair haha :)

Once I get a job i'm saving up for a custom fursuit so I can join in on the fun c:
