Just a heads up. In case you’ve seen the recent “furry personality quiz” that’s been going around recently. Yiffpersonality[.]com

AI Prohibition Post:

After a good amount of reflection, Generative AI content is being prohibited in the EdinFurs chats. It is already a tense subject in general, but for the fandom it has been a pretty consistent source of misery.

While this seems quite a strong stance, we are far from the first Furry group to do it. For the fandom, and especially our creators like artists, it's a supportive stance we want to take, and we believe most members share the sentiment. If the issues it's causing creative furries weren't enough, it gets worse looking at the dense collection of issues it contains in elements like security, a debilitating greed for resources, and even situations like Groks recent 'outburst'. This is the reason for this ban.

If you would like more information on this decision, feel free to message @EdinFursAdmins

EdinFurs Meet, 7th of March 2026

Hoping all who went had a good Scotiacon! And hopefully now looking forward to this approaching EdinFurs meet to continue the social fun! This might be a good Outhouse meet to enjoy too, as you never know when new venues may appear~

The next meet will be held between 12:00 and 17:30 on the 7th of March at the Outhouse Bar, 12A Broughton Street Lane: https://goo.gl/maps/PQgdAm63wYzPiayf8

Remember, if you have any questions, you can always get in touch with the EdinFurs admins and organisers!

I know this place is a little bit out of the way, but it is rather cozy! In a good way! Sadly, the place does not have a kitchen, so ordering food at the bar is a no-go. They allow people to bring their own food to the booked room upstairs, but be prepared to put it away if staff ask you to.

The rules:
1. Tails, con badges, small accessories and ears are fine, just be careful with the potential of knocking things off tables such as glasses. As we’ve got the upstairs space for ourselves again, we have the go-ahead for partials and full-suits, but only in the booked upstairs area. Formally, no costumes/suits (etc.) are allowed downstairs. While in suit, just remember to be wary of nearby drinks on tables and risk of overheating.
2. Don't be a jerk, creepy or overly affectionate to people.
3. Please Respect the places we are in, the staff, and the other guests present! Be considerate with our venue spaces (use of furniture/no mess etc.). Please also don't bring your own drink, within reason. Food is allowed currently, but only in the booked upstairs area. Please also buy stuff at the places we are in, it helps leave a good impression and means we could come back in the future!
4. BRING ID! Even if you're not planning to drink.
5. Please drink responsibly and look out for fellow furs.
6. You must be 18 or older to attend this meet.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to get in touch with any contactable admins, as in our chat rules.

EdinFurs Meet, 4th of April 2026

New venue time! We've had a good run at Outhouse, and we want to try a new venue to see it's pros/cons and if we can build another good venue relationship! We hope this will be an overall improvement, but feel free to keep in contact with us on how the next few meets go!

The details below have also definitely had changes, so please do a re-cap even if you knew the previous details off by heart!

The next meet will be held between 12:00 and 17:30 on the 4th of April at 3 Old Monks, 23 Commercial St, Leith, Edinburgh EH6 6JA
https://maps.app.goo.gl/Bjt2qhsed8zGbQQB9

3 Old Monks is up in Leith, so a bit of travel from central Edinburgh, but with a good few public travel and parking options! We have a private booked room to ourselves here, with plenty of room in the public venue area to drift into if we get quite busy. Both food and drink is available at the venue as well!

The rules:
1. Partials and full-suits are all good to use in our booked venue room, but should be taken off before leaving the venue room. This may relax in future as we build the relationship with the venue. Small furry accessories (con badges, tails, ears etc.) are fine to wear in the venue. Be careful with the potential of knocking things off tables like glasses while using suits/accessories as well!
2. Don't be a jerk, creepy or overly affectionate to people.
3. Please Respect the places we are in, the staff, and the other guests present! Be considerate with our venue spaces (use of furniture/no mess etc.). Don't bring your own food and drink, within reason. Please also buy stuff at the places we are in, it helps leave a good impression and means we could come back in the future!

EdinFurs Meet, 4th of April 2026 Travel

We wanted to give a little bit of advice/information on travelling to the new venue (3 Old Monks) that will hopefully help some at least! Below is some help for travelling from Waverly in Central Edinburgh using public transport, and a parking image of two places to park that we think are the most convenient.


Public Transport Google Maps Links (make sure date and time is set correctly):

-From Waverly Train Station - https://maps.app.goo.gl/6oyuvzL38mJtCT2m7?g_st=ac

-From Waverly Bus Station - https://maps.app.goo.gl/GKhxKLg8NhbUyWC27?g_st=ac

The Number 16 Bus and Tram are our favourites!


Parking Areas Image:

The two coloured zones in the first image below are our most recommended places to park for the Saturday meets:

-The Red Area is the Ocean Terminal - Red Car Park. This has 700 free car parking spaces, though with a height restriction of 6.9ft (2.10m). It's a little walk away, but should have good availability. The arrows show the entrance and exit areas. https://share.google/ObnyhtH3FpAaNsRnv

-The Blue Area is street parking that is closer to 3 Old Monks and is free and suitable to park during the meet. The second image below shows the signage here, but do double check when you park to ensure it hasn't changed and that you are in the right area. The arrow shows the direction of traffic matching the side of the road this parking is on (the other side of the road is less suitable).

EdinFurs Meet, 4th of April 2026 Food

Another info about the new venue we wanted to share is that, along with the usual drink, they offer food! They have a daily specials board along with the items below on their regular menu. To make sure you are ordering food with the correct prices or options, feel free to grab a menu from their staff on the meet days, or look up the menu items on their website here (https://3oldmonks.co.uk) in the 'Feast & Elixirs' section.

Heloo, this is new isn't it! Just an info, the kitchen is now open if you want any monch! You can ask for food at the bar.

Also, if you find the booked venue room we have gets a bit busy or uncomfortable for socialising, feel free to use the rest of the bar areas to chill with friends or have a drimk. We are catering the room mostly to cosplay and fursuiting at the moment! And using the rest of the bar only looks good for how many of us there are!

Also also, there is a little beer garden area just past the kitchen. Feel free to ask an admin if you need a bit of a tour finding it!

All their guest WiFi options should have the same password
Hello everyone, yesterday went amazingly and we hope you all had a fantastic time at our new home 😄

We would love to hear a little bit of feedback from anyone - just send the admin account (@EdinFursAdmins) a message if you have any as we are looking to grow the group and venue

One small note we would like to remind attendees that drinking outside alcohol in front of the venue is not allowed as it can cause the venue to get in trouble with their alcohol licence.

All of the admin team thanks you for attending and we hope to see you next time for another great meet (with maybe some new surprises)

EdinFurs Meet, 2nd of May 2026

Well, that was different! I think overall though it went well at 3 Old Monks. We will keep working to claim more space, work on small scale comforts and help everyone acclimatise to the new space!

The next meet will be held between 12:00 and 17:30 on the 2nd of May at 3 Old Monks, 23 Commercial St, Leith, Edinburgh EH6 6JA
