'''Tica the Sloth''', or just '''Tica''', formerly known as '''G-E-Oriens''' (born 1989), is a [[furry artist]], [[writer]], [[fursuiter]], and [[dancer]] who lives in the United States.<ref>[http://g-e-oriens.deviantart.com/ Tica the Sloth's profile] on [[DeviantArt]]. Retrieved December 15, 2013.</ref>

== Fandom involvement ==

Tica was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] by her [[honorary brother]], [[Wrath of Autumn]], in high school, and has been part of it in some capacity since she was sixteen years old.

She has also attended several [[furry convention]]s, including [[Furnal Equinox]] 2014 (where she won first place in the con's [[dance competition]]), various years of the [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] (before it was disbanded), [[DenFur]], [[Wild Nights]] (in [[W:Oklahoma|Oklahoma]]), [[W:Kawaii Kon|Kawaii Kon]] (in [[W:Hawaii|Hawaii]]), and, her favorite con, [[Anthro Weekend Utah]]. She can be found online on [[Fur Affinity]], [[Telegram]], and [[BlueSky]], among others.

Tica is sometimes seen entertaining (in her [[sloth]] [[fursuit]]) the line outside the [[W:Downtown Aquarium (Denver)|Denver's Downtown Aquarium]] on their [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/downtown-aquarium-denver-sloth-sip-n-paint-tickets-788484677897 annual Sloth Weekend].

=== Fursona ===

Tica's [[fursona]] is a [[W:Hoffmann's two-toed sloth|Hoffmann's two-toed sloth]]. She had different fursonas until August 2013, when she finally settled on the sloth, and debuted the [[partial]] of it at [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con 2013]].

=== Fursuit ===

Tica's first fursuit's [[head]] and arms were made by [[Solion]] ('''Lion of the Sun''') with some modifications by herself, including repainting the face and adding teeth. The feet were made later by ''[[Menagerie Workshop]]'', and new arms were made in 2015 by [[W:Colorado|Colorado]] [[artist]] [[Camphorous]].

She upgraded to a fullsuit just in time for [[DenFur]] 2018, making the [[bodysuit]] and upgrading the arms with help from her friends. In 2019 she made a new head for the suit on the two-toed sloth base by ''[[Chrystumes]]'',<ref>[https://crystumeblanks.weebly.com/sloths.html Chrystumes' sloth page] on [[W:Weebly|Weebly]].

'''Furs For Christ''', formerly known as '''Furrs Fur Christ''' (also known as '''FFC'''), is a small community geared toward [[Christian furries]] and [[anthropomorphic]] artists.

== History ==

Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]], who hosted the site herself starting in 2005. FFC slowly and steadily grew in membership, briefly hosting an art gallery.

In October 2011, FFC moved to a new domain, FursForChrist.com, with a new name, forum, and image gallery as well as social networking capabilities. During the move, some of the moderators and leadership were shuffled, with the existing forum remaining open as an archive until the present date. The new forum was plagued with issues during the upgrade due to various technical limitations imposed by the social software. A second move was then planned, to more stable software. In February 2012, administrators Razi, Aidyn, Firekeeper, and Eagle's Flight stepped down from their posts, with Ian the Gecko, Sleet, and Hunter the Dog taking their places. About 2 months later, the new administration went ahead with the second move, wiping the previous forum and replacing it with one that is powered by phpBB3.

In time, Razi reliquinshed control of FFC entirely, passing hosting duties on to the new administration. The forums were down for a significant period while all the data was migrated to a new server, and as of August 2013 reappeared and are up and running smoothly again.

== Stated goals ==

FFC's original mandate was a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues. It also housed a small, clean anthropomorphic art gallery which was not limited to “religious” art and welcomed deep, non-Christian, or non-anthropomorphic material as well.

FFC is meant to be a warm and welcoming place. Though it is a forum aimed specifically at Christians, it accepts non-Christian members warmly (even one of the global mods identifies as agnostic), and does not discriminate against any Christian denominations, different world religions, or agnosticism/atheism. And though it is a forum aimed specifically at furries, it has also in the past had many non-furry members. Anybody who is interested in Christian and/or furry topics is welcome to come and be a part of the community, provided they follow the rules and live in peaceful coexistence.

It is the current administration's policy that FFC is NOT an online church, and its admins/mods are NOT to be considered spiritual leaders. Neither does FFC have any official creeds or doctrines. Admins and mods are there to keep the peace and take care of site-specific issues; they are not preachers or teachers, simply brothers and sisters in Christ.

== Activism ==

FFC members attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and RMFC again in 2013. Their activities included Bible studies, attending panels, official Sunday worship services, and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Controversy ==

*In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on [[Cracked.com]]'s '''''WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web''''' list<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list]</ref>, above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls<ref>http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602</ref>.

*In October 21, 2007, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its '''''Weekend Web''''' article<ref>[http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]</ref>. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

*On and off throughout the existence of the site, its members have struggled with how to address the issue of homosexuality in the fandom. In the past, FFC took a hard-line stance against homosexuality, condemning it as sin. At the present time, many of its members and admins/mods are openly LGBTQ or strong LGBTQ allies. ALL viewpoints are welcome on the forum, no matter how unpopular, as long as members remain respectful and follow the forum rules in expressing them. FFC strives to be a safe space for both LGBTQ members and anti-gay Christians.

'''Tica the Sloth''', born 1989, is a [[furry]] artist/writer whose [[fursona]] is a [[Wikipedia: Hoffmann's two-toed sloth|hoffmann's two-toed sloth]]. Tica was introduced to the furry fandom by her brother [[Wrath of Autumn]] in high school, and has been part of the furry fandom in some capacity since she was 16 years old. Her initial fursona was that of a spotted lioness, named Gypsi-Rae Leonine. Under this name, she attended [[とらんすふぁ]] 4 and 5 in Tokyo, Japan; [[Oklacon]] 2007 and 2008 in Roman Nose State Park, OK; and [[RMFC]] 2011 in Denver, CO.

In September 2012, she got a tattoo of a blue-and-green celtic lioness, which became her new fursona until August 2013, when she finally settled on a two-toed sloth and debuted her new sloth [[fursuit]] at [[RMFC]] 2013.

Tica can be found on both FurAffinity and DeviantART, and is a global moderator for the [[Furs for Christ]] forums. Her hobbies include writing, digital art, fursuiting, and long-distance cycling.

'''Furs For Christ''', formerly known as '''Furrs Fur Christ''' (also known as '''FFC'''), is a small community geared toward [[Christian furries]] and [[anthropomorphic]] artists.

== History ==

Furrs Fur Christ was created by [[Razi (animator)|Razi]], who hosted the site herself starting in 2005. FFC slowly and steadily grew in membership, briefly hosting an art gallery.

In October 2011, FFC moved to a new domain, FursForChrist.com, with a new name, forum, and image gallery as well as social networking capabilities. During the move, some of the moderators and leadership were shuffled, with the existing forum remaining open as an archive until the present date. The new forum was plagued with issues during the upgrade due to various technical limitations imposed by the social software. A second move was then planned, to more stable software. In February 2012, administrators Razi, Aidyn, Firekeeper, and Eagle's Flight stepped down from their posts, with Ian the Gecko, Sleet, and Hunter the Dog taking their places. About 2 months later, the new administration went ahead with the second move, wiping the previous forum and replacing it with one that is powered by phpBB3.

In time, Razi reliquinshed control of FFC entirely, passing hosting duties on to the new administration. The forums were down for a significant period while all the data was migrated to a new server, and as of August 2013 reappeared and are up and running smoothly again.

== Stated goals ==

FFC's original mandate was a forum where followers of [[Wikipedia:Christ|Christ]] who also appreciate anthropomorphic art can relate to one another and discuss relevant issues. It also housed a small, clean anthropomorphic art gallery which was not limited to “religious” art and welcomed deep, non-Christian, or non-anthropomorphic material as well.

FFC is meant to be a warm and welcoming place. Though it is a forum aimed specifically at Christians, it accepts non-Christian members warmly (even one of the global mods identifies as agnostic), and does not discriminate against any Christian denominations, different world religions, or agnosticism/atheism. And though it is a forum aimed specifically at furries, it has also in the past had many non-furry members. Anybody who is interested in Christian and/or furry topics is welcome to come and be a part of the community, provided they follow the rules and live in peaceful coexistence.

It is the current administration's policy that FFC is NOT an online church, and its admins/mods are NOT to be considered spiritual leaders. Neither does FFC have any official creeds or doctrines. Admins and mods are there to keep the peace and take care of site-specific issues; they are not preachers or teachers, simply brothers and sisters in Christ.

== Activism ==

FFC members attended [[Rocky Mountain Fur Con]] and [[Anthrocon]] 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and RMFC again in 2013. Their activities included Bible studies, attending panels, official Sunday worship services, and sharing their faith with other furries.

== Controversy ==

*In July 2007, FFC was ranked #3 on [[Cracked.com]]'s '''''WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web''''' list<ref>[http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2271&pageid=2 Cracked.com's "WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web" list]</ref>, above [[Second Life]] at #5. This prompted a flood of unregistered guests and some new registrations; as a result, the administrators closed off most of the site to non-members and created a membership application to help weed out spammers and trolls<ref>http://www.furrsfurchrist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2602</ref>.

*In October 21, 2007, [[Something Awful]] featured FFC in its '''''Weekend Web''''' article<ref>[http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/furs-bigfoot-multiplicity.php "Furrs for Christ, Multiplicity, and Bigfoot Forums"]</ref>. The article includes screenshots of the site along with sarcastic comments about the contents of the screenshots. This led to another flurry of guests viewing the site, some of whom spammed the membership applications section.

*On and off throughout the existence of the site, its members have struggled with how to address the issue of homosexuality in the fandom. In the past, FFC took a hard-line stance against homosexuality, condemning it as sin. At the present time, many of its members and admins/mods are openly LGBTQ or strong LGBTQ allies. *All* viewpoints are welcome on the forum, no matter how unpopular, as long as members remain respectful and follow the forum rules in expressing them. FFC strives to be a safe space for both LGBTQ members and fundamentalists.
