        Is it a fursona if it isn’t an animal?

        Wait, that raises further questions. Are there florasonas? Fungisonas? What are those 'cons like? Sunbathing and existing on decaying material?

      Yes, however it’s hyper specialized and mainly used scientifically to observe furries in their natural habitat during one of their habitual gatherings. Furries often gather together at least once a year in a congregation usually referred to as a “convention”. These conventions are science’s primary source of knowledge about furries as they’re rarely seen outside them. As such, there’s a lot of demand for the ability to observe and interact with furries without spoiling the convention, which lead to the invention of the fursuit. It’s very similar to a traditional ghillie suit, however they often include some form of active cooling as researchers are often unaccustomed to the suit’s heat.
