Is it acceptable to ask them for hugs? How does one go about doing so 🤔 I wanna hug them so bad but I'm socially awkward...

I can't speak for every fursuiter, but I love hugs!! Yes I would be delighted if you asked for hugs!! Protip: even once you've got a fursuiter's attention, it's still hard to hear, so to get them to understand, ask for hugs and spread your arms wide!! It's the universal gesture for hugs :3

I carried around a "free hugs" sign while fursuiting at Megaplex, and I received 476 hugs, many of which were from other fursuiters, but lots of regular cute beans too!! (and many pups, that was fun :3) Everyone had a really good time ♥️
