I really love it! I was also wondering how did you make your ears? I am going to do a Furret cosplay as well and I thought I'd ask more experienced cosplayers than me. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Hey there!
Thanks, I'm happy you like it ^^
And you also want to do a furret?
That's so great! More love for this pokemon <3
Well, since I don't know how advanced you are with sewing and all that I think I'll just recomend you this tutorial:

it's not the best, but I found it quite quickly and I think you can get an idea on how to do it ^^
Basically, you draw the ear shape onto a piece of paper (make shure that your pattern is larger than the acutal ear, since you have to count the fabric that will be lost in the seam) , cut it out and then cut out your fabric. Make sure that you have a left and a right pattern for the front and the back of the ears ^^
Then you sew it all together, leavin the bottom open in order to fill it with filler element and also in order to fix it to the alice band.
What I did then was that I took a fabric with longer hair (the dark brown fabric is short, the light brown is longer) and hand-sewed a little part of it onto the top of the ears, to create this little lynx-like effect ^^
Then I added the filler element and a wire for stability and hot glued everything to the alice band ^^
I hope this is any help to you!
