I heard these furry suits are crazy expensive. Really kind of him that he's working so hard to make her dream become true.

If you make it yourself you only have to pay for the cost of materials, which go all the way down to $500 if you don't care about quality at all. But it takes time to make one, and it takes skill to make one that isn't embarrassing to look at

The really nice ones have fans built into the heads and are made to try to vent some of the heat.

Fursuits are crazy expensive just because they are so niche and often times custom made

I bought some for my daughter to learn and you’re right, it’s not cheap.

It didn’t go the way she wanted it to go so she threw it away. I really wish I had been able to keep it so she can see her progress one day.
