Hey, Everyone! I'm moving to Chilliwack in March and I'm looking for some furry friends to make. Hopefully I'll have a better chance out there. I don't own a suit or anything yet.
Hey! Feel free to send me a message sometime, I could be down for hanging out at some point.
Hi, and welcome to the valley!
We put on roughly monthly furmeets in the Abbotsford-Mission area - we just had a St. Patty's event, so the next one is in April at our place in Mission:

You're more than welcome to stop by - there's usually 15-20ish of us at its peak. If you drive and want to imbibe, all we ask is that you please don't drink and drive; we have plenty of crash space for those who need to stay the night and sober up, or for those who take transit and would like to stay out past the last buses.
Speaking of buses, coming from Chilliwack, your best option is the #66 Fraser Valley Express (https://bctransit.com/central-fraser-valley/schedules-and-maps/route-overview?route=66) to Abbotsford, and the #31 Abbotsford-Mission Connector (https://bctransit.com/central-fraser-valley/schedules-and-maps/route-overview?route=31).
If you'd like to attend, feel free to PM me here on the forums and I'll give you the exact address. If not, we'll have plenty of other upcoming meets too, typically once a month or so - just keep an eye on the forum Calendar (https://www.bcfurries.com/forum/index.php?action=calendar) and Lower Mainland Events (https://www.bcfurries.com/forum/index.php?board=4.0) boards.
P.S. You don't need a suit, or artwork, or anything like that to be furry and welcome! They're just ways some of us like to express ourselves - simply being open minded and respectful of everyone else is all you need. I don't even have a suit, or a ref sheet, and I've been doing this for... way too many years! ;)
