Bongo Queen

Bongo Queen (Sadie Louise _; born April 14, 1986 ) is a female anthro artist and fursuit builder who lives in French Valley, California, USA.

Fandom involvement
Bongo Queen was introduced to the furry fandom in 2005 by her then-mate, Dago (an artist also known as AnominousWolf). She had been drawing anthro characters long before she knew about the fandom itself. After learning that there was a group of people dedicated to portraying animals with human characteristics, she created her own fursona, Bongo, a golden Husky. Joining deviantART and Fur Affinity boosted her desire to draw more for furries; she would leave the former in 2007 (and also stopped uploading to the VCL) to focus on FA.

Bongo has attended Further Confusion regularly since 2006 with Dago, who she married on July 11, 2010. During this time she became a costumer, building fursuits of Bongo, Valentine (a pink fox) and Penelope (a Cocker Spaniel). She was working to create Sookie (a bear) in time for Further Confusion 2011; and in 2013 her company, Mischief Makers won first place in the Professional Suit Maker category of their Masquerade; it would go on to be invited to several conventions as guest of honor.

Bongo announced in Spring 2013 that she was moving into a house, and would be having a baby with Dago that Fall, who was named Lilly Louise. However, by May 2018 they had split up due to "irreconcilable differences" (according to Dago) or false "domestic violence" leading to an arrest and a restraining order (per Bongo). She pretended to fight to keep Mischief Makers while Dago struck out with Space Goat Costumes. Bongo moved out that July was officially divorced on December 10 and moved into a new home with Lilly the month after using donations.
