BlockedA 5 year old fox is like a 20 year old adult. Animals age faster than humans.

If I do not return, I died for the fandom.

BlockedI'll suggest "The Rags Rimshot." It involves foolishly traipsing into the woods to try to get a rimjob from a fox.

MemberI've heard that some pet stores around the country actually carry foxes, usually vixens because males have a heavy musk. I wonder what a fox would be like as a pet, somewhere between the temperament of a cat and a dog maybe?

MemberWhy foxes shouldn't be kept as pets:
The fox - despite being from the same canid family as the domestic dog - is simply not cut out to be a human companion. Compared to dogs, foxes are completely different in behaviour and character.
From the moment a fox is born it has strongly inbuilt instincts to be afraid of man and this has been carefully developed through millions of years of evolution. It is true that some captive foxes are remarkably tame -sometimes inexplicably so - but even these can suffer great stress if taken out for a walk in the park like a dog.
A cub hand-reared from one-day-old may get imprinted onto a human but will always suffer great stress when around other people. Being in constant fear results in much salivation from the mouth and can cause excessive diarrhea.
Most healthy young foxes are able to fend for themselves independently in the wild by the time they are five or even four months old. These are instincts for a life in the wild, not a life in a house or an enclosure. So why would anyone want to keep a shy creature that runs and hides in the corner every time a human being is around, causing it great stress and discomfort for the rest of its life, not to mention taking away its freedom.
If you do find an orphaned cub, there is certainly nothing wrong with taking the animal in (you will be doing a positive thing for its welfare) but only do so with a view to getting it back to the wild again. Before making any move to rescue a cub, please remember to ensure that it is, in fact, an orphan and not just temporarily separated from it's mother.

furrypickle
AdminIt's true. In russia they ran an experiment where they selectively bred foxes and created a domesticated variety. Some of them have been sold as pets internationally. Reportedly they're somewhat like cats and somewhat like dogs in temperament and traits. But wild and undomesticated foxes wouldn't be very good as pets. It would be stressful for them.
