I apologize at being horrible at updating this website. I have made so many suits over the years but social media posting has been my weakness. I'm going to try taking better pictures of finished suits and uploading them as they are completed. Try to be more professional looking instead of treating this business as a hobby. Hope you all stay and watch me as I continue on my journey. I will post more wip pics to twitter/X and my telegram channel. This platform will be used to mainly posting completed photos, along with letting you all know when commissions will open again. I will be opening in the fall once I get my queue knocked down so wait times are reduced to under 6 months.

Been a while since I have updated this page. I will upload all completed works here. I'll continue to update facebook, twitter, and telegram with WIP pics and other general news.

Website is now active as well: CCFursuits.com

Fursuit commissions are open and all information can be found on my website.

I'm open for a few slots for Jan-April completion. These will not be on a first come first serve.

2 slots for head, partials, or fullsuits

3 slots for part sets or bodysuits.

Deposit will be due by October 22nd. Will not hold slots, without a deposit.

This is an update for current commissioners and possible future customers.

I don't usually talk about my life problems, mainly because I don't like using them as excuses. I have been through a lot this past year. The biggest thing is overcoming major anxiety and depression. I have a tendency to keep my mental health issues hidden because I never wanted people to think less of me or think of me as weak. But since I am battling it and finally winning, I thought I might share. My doctor put me on some meds that are working, and I have a much better outlook on life. No more constant grumpy cat. The change also made me realize that my relationship with my mate of over 2 years was not making me happy and I ended things. Maybe I jumped the gun but despite everything, I have a more positive look on life now. I've been trying to get my house and life in order, eating right, exercising more, and decluttering.

I have also been battling some physical health issues like chronic back pain and tendinitis in my hands. Both of these issues are a result of over working my body and the strain of getting older. I try not to over work myself through my normal 40 hour a week job and fursuit making. I have had to put commissions on hold several times between a week to a month while I recovered. Currently I am doing much better and fursuit production will resume soon. I also have a friend who has volunteered to help me some, so that makes it fun while more work gets done.

I have 2 partials that I will be finishing up with month (september). After that, I'll move onto all my small parts orders, including the raffle items still owed. During october, I'll be working on some props and bandanas to sell at Tarpaw Furmeet, which is a small local con that we are trying to get off the ground here in NC. I hope to have all my old queue cleared out by the end of October, but I can't promise anything due to life likes to throw me curve balls all the time. The plushies may take a bit longer since I am still new to making them.

I am going to try to open for new fursuit/parts commissions in October. I like working with locals and they always get first dibs on open slots, but I try to keep a few slots open for out of state customers.

November 1st I'll post a journal (along with a tweet, FB post, and Telegram post to my channel) for a limited number of custom embroidered bandanas. These will be for Midwest FurFest delivery only. After MFF, I'll open a normal queue for these for shipped ones. These will make great christmas gifts, so I'll be sure to offer some that will be made and guaranteed for christmas.

So speaking of telegram, you can always send me a direct message to alphaqueenkitty Be sure to introduce yourself. Messages like Hi or just a sticker will most likely be ignored. Also, I have a new channel that I post WIP pics and some updates to. You can check that out here: https://t.me/carolinacritterfursuits

I appreciate all my commissioners that have been patient with me. I hope I can continue to bring to life your amazing characters and am looking forward to new beginnings and a much happier life.

Peace! -Dyani  dyanicaracal

Commissions are now closed. Will be sending out quotes to the chosen projects later today.

3. Shallotcog (twitter) wins custom plushy
4. NuritheFelineDragon (FurAffinity) wins custom plushy

I'll be contacting you six to get details about what you want and shipping addresses.


I had almost 750 entries combined. I thank you all for participating! Feel free to unlike/unfollow/unwatch. But I will be having more raffles in the future, maybe around christmas time. So you can stay and enjoy my creations, or come back later, it's up to you. Enjoy!

Been really busy working on commissions. Took on a few commissions from locals so I will not be opening anytime soon.

But in the meantime, I'm going to hold a raffle once I hit 500 Watchers. Will be for a pair of indoor feet-paws! SO if you want to see that raffle, share the love and tell your friends to come watch me!

Also decided to hold a separate raffle on Facebook when that page hits 500 likes. So pop on over there and watch me there too!
https://www.facebook.com/CarolinaCrittersFursuits/

Finally, I was able to get back into my FA account. I'll be sending out an email this evening to all commissioners about updates on your commission. If you need to get a hold of me, or want to chat about your commission, you can always message me on twitter or Telegram.

Username for both is DyaniCaracal

If you are waiting for me to open back up for commissions, that will happen sometime in August. I have a few commissions to finish up then want to work on my own suits and personal projects.

Been tackling my queue and knocking out the items for people going to FWA so I can save a few people some shipping. As soon as I get back from FWA, I'll only have 2 old commissions to complete then its on to a partial.

I have one slot left and once it is filled, I'm closing commissions til about mid summer. I have several personal projects I want to complete but can't while I have a commission queue. Expect great things coming soon.

I will still be open for repairs. I'll be opening soon for props and bandannas once I get a few examples made.

Also something to look forward to: Once I get close to 500 watchers, either here or on FB, I will hold another raffle.

I'll be uploading pics of completed works after FWA. Right now I have some pics up on Trello under each completed commission if you want to check those out. I also post WIP pics and completed pics on my Carolina Critters FB page.

Today is my birthday and in order to celebrate, I'll be giving a 10% discount to any one who commissions me for a Head, Partial, or Fullsuit.

You must submit a quote and pay the deposit by 2-19-16 to get the discount.

Hope everyone is having a good new year so far and I hope to see many of you at FWA in a few months!

Finally got my trello up to date for my commissions queue. Not 100% complete but its getting there.

Feel free to check it out!

Going to be opening for new commissions on Feb 1st. Please fill out a quote and I'll get back to you with a price as soon as I can.

I'll be heading to Midwest Furfest this next week. Looking forward to seeing friends. If you want to meet me, I'll probably be suiting a lot so look for me.

I'm taking  dyanicaracal and  kunoki

Well here it is....a journal for my customers to review their commissions.

Some topics you can cover:

1. What type of parts did I make for you (so others can reference)
2. How closely did I match your reference sheet / description.
3. What you thought of my level of communication
4. How the parts fit
5. Were prices reasonable
6. How well do you like the fursuit parts i made for you.
7. Were parts made in a timely fashion .... yes, I know I may get hit on this one :P You can still complain.
8. Feel free to reference any pic I have uploaded of your commission, or of ones you have taken.
9. Any other comments, complaints, or critiques you can think of.

I want to grow as a fursuit maker. Any negative reviews will still be left up... Just like in life, I want to learn from my mistakes / failures and be a well sought after fursuit maker one day. :) It takes happy customers to be one of the best, so anything I can do to improve on, I'll be willing to listen and take advice.

I have 1 slot left for a "full partial" fursuit commission.

Slot is limited to canine or feline fusonas.

Commission will include a head, handpaws, feetpaws, sleeves, and tail.

Head can either be foam or resin (DVC base)

Price will start at $650 and go up depending on options chosen and detail of character.

This slot will be placed on a separate list and will be worked on over time. I can guarantee it will be done by MFF, or sooner if deposit is paid by September 1st.

If you have any questions or are interested in this commission, note me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Be sure to read my Terms of Service before commissioning me.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/.....it?usp=sharing

To get a quote or to look at prices, go to my quote form.
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/10G.....usHJQ/viewform

Commissions on a first come first serve basis, however, I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. If you have already received a quote, and are ready to commission me, please note/email me.

I will only be open for a limited number of slots to keep the waiting time shorter.

I will be open for 1 head or partial commission to be completed by MFF. Heads will start at $400 and go up depending on # of fur and complexity. Head will be foam base with static jaw. If you are interested in snagging this slot, please message me directly. I have a few examples of heads that I have furred in my submissions.
This slot will be placed on a separate list and will be worked on over time. I can guareentee it will be done by MFF, or sooner.

If you have any questions, feel free to message me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

I'll be preparing to open back up for commissions soon. My normal job has been wearing me out and in evenings, really haven't felt like doing stuff, so I've been kinda slow. >.<

As soon as I get the top 2 on the list done, I'll be opening for quotes (should be in a week or two)

As soon as I get #3 done, I'll officially open for a few new commissions. I'll be adding 1 slot for a head or partial commission just to start getting me used to making heads.

As a reminder, I don't take deadlines, but commissions will be done within 2 to 6 months.

Stay tuned!

I'll also be posting pics of completed stuff soon.....

So I finally made a twitter for my Carolina Critters. You can follow me here: https://twitter.com/CCFursuits

And I also have a Facebook page set up. Its here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Caro.....51538631801127

I post more updates and WIP pics on those sites so keep an eye out there.

My goal is to have all current commissions completed and shipped no later than the end of July. If you are really wanting your stuff by a con, please note me so I am aware and I'll do my best to get stuff done by then. I know you all have been waiting patiently and I thank you all for that.

Once all my commissions are done, I'll reopen the quote page and will only be taking 5 projects at a time. I really want to make a head using a DVC resin base, so I'll have one slot open for that. In the meantime, I'll be working on getting a few prop examples done and take orders on those.

Thank you all for reading, and hope everyone has a great summer (or winter for those in southern hemisphere).

So yeah, the winner never contacted me...which means they weren't keeping tabs on the raffles they had entered and obviously didn't care if they won or not.....18 days was enough time. So, lets do this again.

I am raffling off a free pair of hand paws in honor of hitting the 250 watcher mark...which is already at 337 now. LoL
I will decide on type of paw, you can choose solid color or 2 colors. No complex designs allowed.

To enter:
1. MUST BE WATCHING ME
and
2. Just comment below that you want to enter.

Doing it real simple this time. No extra entries...and please, do not enter with multiple accounts to try to increase your odds. If I find out you have done this, you will get blacklisted from entering in future raffles.

I'll give this until Monday, May 25th, at 7pm EST.
Winner's name will be posted via journal (or image of screenshot of randomizer) and you will have 48 hours to contact me via note to claim it.
You will have to send me a trace of your hand, or email me measurements to make sure paws fit correctly.
I'll pay for shipping to lower 48 states (if you live international or Hawaii or Alaska, you will have to pay shipping)

Good Luck everyone and Thank You all for watching me!

Sorry about the delays in creating awesome stuff for you guys. My new job has put quite the strain on my body and leaves me exhausted most evenings. On top of that, my arms/hands have been bothering me a lot lately so I have reduced the amount of work my hands do in the evenings/weekends. I've already had carpal tunnel surgery, so its not that....its just inflamed tendons from overuse of hands and arms.

I'm still working on parts, just slower than I thought I would. Please be patient with me and I'll get to everyone as soon as I can. I'll probably remain closed for commissions until I can get my list down to 2 or 3 commissions left.

I may still add people to the end of the queue if they really want on the list bad enough and don't care about time frames. If you are one of these people, feel free to message me and we will talk.

I'll be going to FWA this weekend so the vacation will do me some good. Also, next week at work won't be as busy so I should be able to continue on stuff next week.

Thanks for understanding and see you guys at FWAAAAA!!!

As soon as the last slot is filled, I will be closing commissions for fur parts for a month or 2. I have several quotes out that should be getting back to me soon.

If you have already gotten a quote from me, do you not fret, I can still add you to the list even after I have closed (As long as your quote has not expired.)

If you are waiting on fursuit props, they will be sold on a separate list, so closing commissions won't affect these.

Almost forgot...since I ordered squeakers to insert into toys and props, I can add them to tails now. I added the option on my quote form. If you want one added to your order you have already paid for, its a $1 charge to cover cost of squeaker.

Excited about some new stuff...

Making some feet paws soon that have fur and paw pads on the bottom. They will be the exact same feet paws I offer now, but will have fur and vinyl paw pads on the bottom. Once I have an example, I'll start offering it up as an option for my feet paws. If you already have an order in and want to upgrade, you'll be able to do that.

Still working on sock paws and trying to get the pattern down right. So if you are looking for those, please keep waiting, I should have something soon.

I bought some fleece while in town earlier today and gonna see about making some props this week. Cookies (chocolate chip and Oreo), Milkbone, slice of pizza, banana, bone, fish, and earphones are all on the list of things I'm gonna try to make. Gotta order some god forsaken squeakers to put in them.... XD

Going to be making some fursuit props soon.

What kinds of things should I make? Like bandannas, fleece plushy bones, fish, etc?

So finally hit 200 watchers (minus the 4 people who unwatched me for unknown reasons)

I plan to do a raffle for a FREE set of handpaws at 250 watchers.

Want to help me out? Spread the word to get me more watches (and more customers hopefully) and when I hit 250, 500, 750, etc.... I'll host a raffle. At 500 I'll prolly up it to feetpaws or something more.

So keep an eye out!
