Chat Directory
The main purpose of this website is to catalog all the public furry groups in the region. Initially, it focused on groups in the Milwaukee area, but its scope has grown to include the Madison and Chicago areas.
To add a chatroom, please send the details of the chatroom, including either an invite link or a person to contact for entry, to Lilia Roo, who maintains this website.
Telegram Chat Auto-Approvals
Some chat owners enable join requests to reduce spam. Unfortunately, someone who wishes to join many chats for the local furry community will find themselves waiting to be let into each of these chats. To avoid this issue, the Telegram bot for this website has an auto-approval system, which allows someone who is already approved and present in one enrolled chat to be automatically let into another enrolled chat using join requests.
To enroll your chat into this system, follow these steps:
- Add @SEWIFursBot to your chat
- Make it an admin with only "Add members" or "Invite users via link" granted
- Run
/chat_id
- Send the result to Lilia Roo, who maintains the system
As more chats enroll in the auto-approval system, it will become more useful.
Enrolled chats (5)
- Furwaukee Meetups
- Gender-Minority Furries Milwaukee
- Milwaukee Public Suiting
- We lift things up
- Wisconsin IT Furs
Carpools
In my experience, furries are generous in offering a carpool to an event if you ask for one. The best places to ask for transportation are in a large chat for your area (where you're coming from) and the chat for the event (where you're going).
Some groups, such as the one for the Milwaukee area, run a dedicated event transportation channel to help prevent questions from getting lost.
Event Calendar
A shared event calendar is present on the homepage. The intent is to make it editable by furries without implicitly trusting any random person with nefarious intent. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a good solution to this problem. If you have a suggestion for how this could be done, please let me know!
