My name is Kate Shaw. I started making tails after attending Anthrocon in July 2022. The artistry and skill on display in fursuits and fursuit pieces just astounded me, and I was inspired to make my own. In September I took my first commission and decided to start Tigerbat Tails.

 

I learned the basics of sewing as a kid and got into cosplay making in the early 2010s. Making fursuit pieces interests me in the way that sewing ordinary clothing doesn't. I am always experimenting with new styles and techniques.

​

I am the same Kate Shaw who produces and hosts Strange Animals Podcast. I'm also currently president of the Furry Writers' Guild and publish furry and fantasy fiction as K.C. Shaw. You can find me on TikTok where I post videos and tutorials about making fursuit pieces. I also sometimes sell premade pieces at the Dealer's Den.

​

I try to attend Furry Weekend Atlanta, Anthrocon, and Dragon Con most years, when my work schedule and finances allow. Come say hi!
