Heh. I'd just like to live in a forest with a fox in it, really. I'd only put a collar on it so I can tell it apart from other foxes But that does seem like going a bit far.

But I don't see what's wrong with offering an animal shelter if it really looks harmed and lost.

I think I prefer animals to humans a lot of the time. Maybe it's not a question of me domesticating a fox, but a fox wilding me.

I see 'em all the time, night owl that I am. Squaring up to each other across the road outside my house. They're lovely.

One time I shouted (quietly, if that's possible) "Helloooo foxy!" out the window to one of them, and it just stopped dead and looked up at me.

Then it crapped itself and ran.

Oh well.

Maybe your sunglasses scared it XD

That's what you get for trying out cheap chat-up lines on the local wildlife....

Any port in a storm!

possibly the only time Debaser and I have ever agreed when the subject of the thread has mentioned foxes.

I would also like a pet fox. Approx. six feet tall, slim build, dark hair preferred. Gainful employment a plus, stamina essential.

A collar on a fox probably isn't a good idea, it'll throttle itself on something in no time as happens to many cats.

Oh, Jen, is 6 foot 5 too much?

You can't take a wild - or semi-wild, which is about the same to me - into your house!

The poor animal is not made for that and will be bored to that and all that...

I'll just stick with my doggy...

Any excuse to show Benjo off...

For you, Loosh, I'm willing to make an exception.

True. Although, some of them love you unconditionally.

Mine is older now. She was only a couple of weeks there. Now she's 1 1/2 years old.
