About Us

NYC FurMeets started as a small gathering of friends in January 2025, consisting of a trip to B&H and a bit of public suiting along the High Line. One month later, with a bit of hasty planning, both Zane and Fane put together the very first official NYC FurWalk in Manhattan’s Financial District, with attendance peaking at 20 furs. FurWalk has continued on every month since then, with some notable locations including Central Park, Coney Island, and even the NYC Pride March.

Ever since those humble beginnings, our group has expanded significantly, bringing on more staff, more types of events, and more people into the rapidly growing NYC furry scene. Our team is committed to building and fostering a vibrant furry community right in the heart of the largest cities in the country, for residents and visiting furs alike!

​

Our group does not operate alone. We recognize and appreciate the work of other event organizers in our region and beyond. Some of these groups directly work with us in creating new events or giving us necessary advice. See more about these partner/friend groups in our Collaborating Groups section.
