Ferzu is an adults-only furry social networking website and dating service, launched June 2016.

Ferzu is to be subscription-funded at the end of its beta period, with regular users to be limited in their daily usage of photo views, uploads and notes.[1] It is now available as an Android and iPhone app.

The site's name is a portmanteau or the words 'fur' and 'zoo'.[1] Infurr was also considered, with infurr.com registered in March 2016.[2]

Organization[edit]

Ferzu is run by Grokio, a limited liability company in established in Delaware[3] and operating in New York[4] which runs similar services in other verticals:

  • Grommr, a "social network and dating site for [male] gainers, bloaters, encouragers and admirers"
  • Feabie, a "social network and dating site for feeders, feedees, fat admirers and BBW/BHM"
  • Chasabl, a "hybrid social network and dating/personals site for big men and the men who love them—chubs and chasers, chubby bears and cubs"

Of the three, only Chasabl permits "nude" images.
