Riley Winters, also known as Horsefur, is a fursuiter and DJ from Colorado, USA. He currently lives in Denver.
Contents
Fandom involvement
Despite joining the furry fandom in 2013, Riley was not involved in any websites or groups until March 2014.
In late-2015, Riley joined the Colorado Furries Telegram group where he became active in the Colorado furry community, frequently attending fur meets in Colorado. Riley's first meet was Arvada Tails in January 2017; since then Riley has attended dozens of meets across Colorado and the state.
Riley became an administrator for the Colorado Furries group on February 11, 2017, [1] and an administrator for the Pennsylvania Furry group on July 12, 2017. Riley moved to Pennsylvania later in July 2017 and attended Western Pennsylvania Furry Weekend later that year, his first furry convention.
Fursona
Riley's fursona is a mountain lion with an orange stripe on his tail. Riley has heterochromia eyes, one green, and one blue. Riley's fursonas have diamonds on his ankles.
r/Place
2017
On April 1, 2017, Riley had his fursona placed on the Reddit April Fools' Day project, /r/place.[2] The original text under Riley's face had said "FURRY HORSEFUR" before being vandalized in the final moments of /r/place.
2022
In April 2022, Reddit relaunched /r/place and Riley once again worked to have his fursona placed on the final canvas. Riley teamed up with Nepal to have his head and name displayed in the final canvas. Due to the difference in timezone, Nepal was able to watch over Riley's art while Riley slept and vice-versa. Unlike 2017, Riley accomplished having his name and fursona on place without vandalism.[3]
Riley was also able to have art of his fursona showcased on the final 2022 place canvas next to Quackity.[4]
Fursuit
Riley commissioned and received his first fursuit in November 2014, made by iCrescendo. Riley retired this fursuit in 2019 after commissioning a second fursuit from KaraStereoX. Riley refurbished this fursuit in 2020 and debuted it an DenFur in 2021.
In 2022, Riley commissioned a 3.0 fursuit by Twisted Leopard. The new fursuit is due to be completed in 2023 and debut by the end of 2023.
