  1. Used to feed a female fox when she was in a bad way she started perking up then out the blue she started bringing her cubs around used to watch them interact with cat toys my older cat had and not once did I encounter a issue

    I’m sure she saw me as one of them as whenever I’d go outside to smoke she would come and sit right next to me after she’d eaten her food

    You gotta love gods creatures 💚

  2. They do not bother me. The noises like a human baby crying in the night or when I see them at night on the street or in the morning they always run scared. The problem is they scatter trash collected in the bins all over making it look like zombie apocalypse in entire neighbourhoods. I've seen pigeons and crows do the same. This needs some control cause it might spread diseases.

  3. I think it was raining and there once was a fox sleeping on the mat outside our door all curled up and sleeping because there's a little shade. I found it very cute!

  4. I love my foxes in my garden. I always give them food and they are a adorable. They dont pee or poo in my garden like that unfortunate fella. Foxes are natives to the land therefore we should share a mutual respect between us.

  5. I wish people would stop feeding them, they can look after themselves. A lot of us dont want them making noise and tearing up our gardens

  6. I have one in my garden and unfortunately infested our bed linens that were hanging on the washing line with fleas that got transferred into our bedroom. It was so traumatic we do not use the garden any longer.

  7. The UK should have a law that whenever a building estate is built, they should build an animal welfare site specifically for the animals and nature that they impacted.

    This isn’t the foxes fault, they’re wild animals it’s people’s fault for building on natural land with no sustainable solution for the wildlife they’re impacting

  8. London is around 33% green space compared to 10% in Paris. Which, though Paris 24 wouldn't like to point out, is a big part of it!

  9. 🦊s are wonderful and very friendly. Please feed them, you can leave them any food left overs, especially now when it’s the kits season.

  10. Beautiful creatures! Perfect cross between cats and dogs, my favorite creatures! They have just as much right to exist on this land as us and any other creature!

  11. In parts of India they have freaking jaguars roaming around at night in their gardens and we're making a fuss over foxes. Love foxes even if they are a "nuisance." They're just trying to get by like everyone else.

  12. Fox’s get a bad reputation about biting babies etc because the aristocratic media are chums with the inbred weirdos who hunt them.
