Being in a Fursuiting Conumdrum

It's been now a month since I received Umbreon and thus I now been a fursuiter for around that time. I purchased the most of the stuff I need to look after my suit. I made the part that went missing in the arrival of my Pokémon fursuit using the things I have laid around in the house. The tail. and at first I made it of plastic shopping and garbage bags and mostly packaging tape. Purchased my own glue gun originally to at least try and repair his head which I did attempted at least. Then I used the glue to seal the stuffing into the garbage bag I use for it's tail and use the remaining plastic bags to get some more shape I wanted for it.
Was going to pant it as is but then a non fur friend of mine advised me against it as it won't mate it visually blend into the suit and look a bit tacky. So the next best thing is I went to Spotlight. Spent about give or take as I remember $30 - $40 Australian for the fur I used for it which is 3 rolls of pre cut black fur and a metre of blue just for the rings for his tail. I'm not going to explain in detail of how I made Umbreons tail as I explained it in a video on YouTube. But I could say that I ended up installing the tail into the bodysuit after all by gluing it after I sewed the button clips on both the body and the tail.
Anyhow I do know the feeling of finally having your first fursuit and wanting to just be out in public in it or what we furries call going out fursuiting. I'm as I predicted wanting to be make use of the suit. Like I fully want this experience still. But the problem is besides the one of my watchers and another I'm watching on FA, I didn't know of any other furries living in my home region. I remember on my birthday as I was talking to The Dog Father himself, Al Cabone, I told him of this conundrum I'm having. I do credit him on the idea of his which was starting up a fur con in Newcastle as I know there is no such thing as even a fur meet nor a fursuiting group that is based anywhere in the Hunter that I could be a part of. But I find it illogical and too much work in organising those type of things. Plus I don't want to do it just for my sake as it I categorise as being selfish or too self centred. Otherwise whats the use? How do I know of other fursuiters in my home town besides myself. I'm not counting mascots based there like Big Dog. He's just a costumed character of some local kids show turned mascot for a free to air TV station in Australia. Plus he got payed to dress up in that costume.
I begged to almost every member of my family that would it be ok if I be around you as Umbreon as most fursuiters advised against solo suiting in public for some reason be it vision or whatever. Even if in your first furry convention which is the most welcoming event for fursuiters is their costumes. Everybody in the fandom knows that.
My other friend
Chozowarrior by now had been to 
Confurgence which had been over and fuck I wished I went and I don't care if I had to book flights to Melbourne which is a city at a state I never had step foot at thus not familiar to it. I foolishly talked her into spending the weekend of the con as I call "a Pokémon" trainer of mine while and if I were an Umbreon in that event. I mean like I said other fursuiters or furrys in general do advised in safety reasons to not go in fursuit without an unsuited human handler no matter if you either a silent nor talking fursuiter. Fuck I wished that I have the money to go to Confurgence. Chozo could be my trainer or fursuit handler if you will for those ain't familiar with Pokémon. But Chozo and others who are at Melbourne for Confurgence reading this, I hope you have a good time down there as I wish I were there myself.
I could wait until my parents invite me to go out somewhere with them or my brothers and if I weren't driving, put my underarmour on and then become Umbreon myself but if I do I tend to be an embarrassment to my entire family. For what? Nothing but doing something I want to do and as what I want to be? A fursuiter? I don't understand how embarrassing I am strutting as a Pokémon to them. If anyone should feel embarrassed it should be my and ha, I would never be embarrassed because why? Because I would be dressing in something I love to dress in. My entire family is so against the furry family and they have trouble coping with having an eldest son and brother being a furry and later on being a fursuiter in public no matter if I'm Bruzo nor Umbreon. Believing that this entire community is a sex colt. But I know it ain't all just. Their are some yiffers that I don't know and that is a part of the community I wish I still don't know about. But yiffing and to have sex is far from being a reason I wanted to be a fursuiter. If I want to fuck, I do it as a human. Not dressed up in a fursuit of either Bruzo nor Umbreon nor any other of my characters.
I planed to go to sporting games like I said in fursuit like an unofficial freelance mascot for both my sporting teams. Starting at my hometown to spread awareness of this community and cheer on my teams. Sort of like what the Dog Father dose in Tuff Pro Wrestling but at a different type of sporting event and it's also a case of killing 2 birds with 1 stone.
I advertised myself on various pages on Facebook looking to see if anyone who is starting a complete Eevee group I could be a part of for a cosplaying convention I don't care if it's too far from me. If you are a fan of Pokémon, you could know what I mean by an Eevee group and that's great if you do but if you don't know about this type of group, Google it.
I also advertise myself as a volunteer fursuiter for Make a Wish in the event of needing assistance of granting Pokémon related wishes like wanting to be a Pokémon Trainer in real life.
I mean I could wait for Halloween or for a con that I could easily make it to like EB Expo I just can't. I want to go to at least a con earlier than that like
FurDU in the Gold Coast at least but it ain't cheap to fly and have accommodation there at the same time and as is I'm saving for my car payments to be finished and then paying for Bruzo to be made into a fursuit most likely by ATM 
Plus3Defense if they open for commissions but as I know unfortunately not yet.
I don't know what else to do TBH. I wouldn't mind going out solo suiting around my suburb as I can see surprisingly well out of Umbreons eyes and I'm near desperate to want to go fursuiting enough to want to do that but the thing is people in my area will end up most likely get the wrong idea of my fursuiting solo and most likely get bashed for being different to them. And if it weren't for me get badly hurt but fear my suit that saved me from this demon which is called fursuit envy will be even more damaged. And that is not near what I want it to end up as because my shiny Umbreon is my first and only real fursuit until I have my fursona suit. I can't just give him away as he is such. I don't know what else to do. I can't say that's it. Wither you voted or not I decide on having an Omegle stream and if you vote on the raffle, you don't count because it's unfair and that proves I'm not sticking to my words.
I don't want to get rid of Umbreon but I can't wait for an opportunity to go fursuiting safely for both myself and Umbreon.

And having no suit at a con brings suit envy!
But what you are doing now is the right thing to do. Waiting and saving money/car repayments. As you said, it is too dangerous to go out without a handler. But try to enjoy Umbreon as much as you can. Wear umbreon in the privacy of your room if you feel it will annoy other people. Do stuff that makes you happy. You are a bit stuck at the moment with money, but all you have to do is ride it out. You have furs to talk to, just not interact with irl . I'm here for you and i know Angel is too. :D
Sure I even see a generic fursuiter of a fox. Not as Fox McCloud of Stsrfox but just as an OC and I remember it's a partial.
But I was only there wearing a Newcastle Jets jersey and say I cisplated as,a player for the jets of FIFA.
But the gap in me that stoped me from enjoying this con the fullest is that I didn't go as a cosplayer. Although I was planing to go there as Bruzo as a Dovakin as I do play a lot of Skyrim. But I didn't even vet it buit intime
Perhaps I am destined to somehow like similar to Al CaBone. Perhaps to spread the awareness of the furry fandom back throghout Newcastle, NSW. Perhsps I feel destined to be a legendary argonian because of that.
Also, i'm just watching your "Chubby Bunny" video and i commented haha! Its good to see you are enjoying yourself even without a fursuit!
