'''Singapore Furs''' is a community of furries in [[wikipedia:Singapore|Singapore]], an island nation of just 710.2 sq km (274.2 sq mi). The group was founded around December 2004, although the community has informal roots before the period. The community keeps in touch with its regional neighbours as a branch of [[AnthroAsia]] as well as furry conventions within the South East and East Asian regions, serving as a convenient furry regional hub. As of 2015, the SGFurs is headed by a committee of 5 group admins.

==Online Community==
The community is active on Facebook, and the [http://www.facebook.com/singaporefurs Singapore Furs Facebook Page] is where the latest events and discussions happen among the Singapore Furs.

==Furmeets & Fursuiting==
[[Furmeets]] are organised on an ad hoc basis due to the easy travel within the country. On average, attendance on larger events are approximately fifty per meet.

One of the primary reasons for furmeets is for fellow SGFurs monthly birthday celebrations. Examples of activities during birthday celebrations include bowling, fursuiting during Halloween.

The SGFurs Community have an annual chalet meet, which started in 2010, to provide space that caters to the varied interests within the community, and provide a platform for members to contribute their time and talent.

Other examples of local meets include fursuiting during local cosplay events and playing board games. Smaller local meets situated in downtown Singapore usually happen over food, and usually end of the night with plenty of walking.

Furmeets also happen when the SGFurs play host to visiting furs from overseas. Furmeets of this nature may involve touring around the city-state, or having a meal over the wide variety of local food. To date, the SGFurs have hosted furs from USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Norway, Germany, UAE, South Africa, Japan, Hong Kong and other [[W:ASEAN|ASEAN]] countries.

Unlike furmeets in Western countries, fursuiting during meets held in public locations are rare due to the complex logistics. Furthermore, the tropical nature of Singapore makes it extremely challenging for fursuiters to suit at length, restricting their activities to mainly indoor air-conditioned spaces. The later would also requires consent of mall management which are difficult to obtain.
