CynWolfe at MiDFur XXI: Heroes and Villains 2010

CynWolfe (previously known as Arctic|Pete; born December 29, 1982, in Sydney) is a gothic arctic wolf who lives in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. He has previously lived in the Australian cities of Adelaide and Canberra. As of November, 2010, CynWolfe is dating Fizeo Kitty from country New South Wales.

In 2007, Pete helped organize the Melbourne in December Fur Meet. He was also Chairman for MiDFur X in 2008, where it was decided to use a convention format. He continues to serve as the CHairman to this day, being the longest running head of MiDFur.

After concerns over the handling of MiDFur's funds, Pete founded the not-for-profit Australian Furry Association (AUSFA) to handle the convention's financial transactions. While ostensibly created for MiDFur, AUSFA also hosted the RADFur website, which was organised by Firey, and helps promote other Australian communities and events. AUSFA had the stated goal of "...bettering every single furs experience." [1]

In 2008, the Australian Furry Association (AUSFA) was formed to run what had become a fully-fledged convention. The organization included MiDFur board members and members of the Australian furry community. However, in 2010, AUSFA was dissolved and replaced with a partnership: Australian Furry Conventions (AFC). The stated reasons for this were to avoid the external annual report requirement (and in particular, the ~AU$1000 fee required, which could be used for the convention), and to avoid problems in years in which the organization might run at a loss.[2]

The partners of Australian Furry Conventions are:

  • Pete Smith (CynWolfe; MiDFur chairman, CEO)
  • Nathan Cooper (StarShadow; MiDFur secretary CAO)
  • Gary Dean (Fizeo Kitty; MiDFur Finance and Merchandise, CFO)

MiDFur operations are still run by the MiDFur board, of which these partners are equal members.

CynWolfe was inducted into the Furry Hall of Fame in 2010 by fellow 2010 inductee Jenner
