## Definitions
1. An influential or famous furry; a microcelebrity or influencer in the furry fandom subculture.

## Etymology
Blend of popular + furry. Attested as early as 2007 (see quotations), but popularised by a 2009 musical comedy sketch at the Furry Night Live variety show of the Further Confusion furry convention that used popufur as a synonym for popular.
