[edit] Plushies and Furries
Yote was the main subject of Rick Castro's documentary Plushies and Furries. After the airing of the program, an anonymous user on Pressed Fur posted e-mails purportedly from Yote, saying "it was all faked and made up by pyewacket so that he could have drama and a story".[4]
In 2004, it was reported on Crush Yiff Destroy that Ash Cairo had created a deck of furry-themed playing cards.[5] In the suit of spades (reserved for "OMG ANTIFURRIES"), Yote was assigned the Eight.
[edit] Fursuits
Yote helps his mate, RedXIX, build fursuits. Costumes that they have collaborated on include Mojave (a coyote)[6] and Tabitha (a bat).[7]
