And a threat too since they're wild animals.

Can I uh, talk to you about that via PM?

Oh thanks a lot, now you made my heart explode from the cuteness!

No worries! I'm glad so many people look forward to these pictures and stories, being able to associated with cute animals like foxes has helped me relieve stress and anxiety, at the same time it has helped me understand ethology. Still learning though! Oh, and I have a fox blog now linked in my signature I'll still update here too!

But by all means you're more than welcome to check out my blog! I think I'll stick with Super Mega Ultra Adorable Foxes I think the URL is fitting. I post my own stuff there as well as repost other fox owners' pics!

Oh. My. God.

Ah, you mean my blog? That it is, and people have been asking me a lot of questions about fox ownership and about how cute they are. You mean your high school extracurricular fox thingy? Be calm, no matter how excited you are, let the fox or in this case, the foxes approach you, sniff you and open up to you. They will seem skittish at first around new people, this is normal, so like in your last venture, get to as close to their eye level as much as you can, so in this case, kneel or sit on the ground if possible. The other thing, there places foxes don't like to be petted, usually the tail, their back, etc but foxes almost always love being scratched on their chins, their ears, their heads and their chests. I know, it's tempted to pet their bushy tails, and some foxes don't mind, but it depends on their personalities. But try the ears, head, chin and chest, one is bound to make them enter foxy heaven and show their super cute happy faces

In summary, always let the fox approach you, never try to approach the fox, keep your hand extended so they can investigate since they are very curious animals. Then the noises, oh gosh the NOISES!!!! Are cameras allowed? I would kill to get some pictures and I don't care if you post them here, or if you want to make a thread, that's fine too, but I really don't mind if you post them on my thread Foxes are so bloody adorable!!! Good luck, let me know how it goes. Foxes can tell how a person is, they can sense our personalities it seems, and I have no doubts the foxes will connect with you Foxes and other canids won't connect with a person who abuses animals, is a rude person, etc. They're very intelligent. All in all, you have nothing to worry about. If they nom or play bite, don't panic, this is normal and they do it to feel objects (mouths act as a sensory mechanism), to use as a pacifier and for security much how children suck on their thumbs while holding a blanket. You will be fine

Well, that happens, the important thing is the experience you go through. You'll do fine!

A friend on Facebook posted pictures of her fox Winchester, who's a sunglow (similar to a marble fox); he is so adorable! He's such a cute happy fox

Oh. Mah. Gawd. On September 23rd I had that trip instead of the 4th, that was a different trip for another group, I realized I said that in the thread. On September 23rd, the 30th, and yesterday, I got to spend time with the animals. Most of the foxes were recently recovered from some skin disease, and the rest were fine, baby foxes. THEY WERE SO CUTE!! I GOT TO LOVE THEM SO MUCH, CARE FOR THEM, AND MAKE THEM SO HAPPY! THE FOXES JUST ALWAYS SMILE AND LOVE TO PLAY. THEY'RE SO NICE AND WE'RE GOOD FRIENDS! :WUB: THE EXTRA CURRICULAR THING IS DONE, BUT IM GONNA MISS THEM.

Ah, another victim who has succumbed to cuteness poisoning, or so I gathered from my diagnosis,; let's see, exploded heart, check. Melted into a puddle? Check. Oxytocin, endorphin level increase and reduction in the anxiety-causing hormone cortisone? Yup. Sounds like you had one helluva time with the cute fluffy foxes!!! I'm so glad you know what it's like to interact with them! Oh, and I highly recommend you see the video I posted in the post above, hehehehe! Still sounds like you had a lot of fun with those cute puffballs!



How did they interact when they saw you? Did they lick, nuzzle or otherwise show affection in some way? Where they all different colors? I'm curious as to how they were around ya Told ya foxes are awesome!

 

[the_randomizer]

ComeTurismO I really would love to hear more details on how you felt when you where in their enclosure, whether or not your heart rate went up, and like how they reacted to you

 

[calmwaters]

I'm happy you shared this amazing story with us, CT. I've been feeling happy all weekend and this can only add to it.

Sure shall watch that video, and the area was like this huge area with a shelter for them, and grass and places to sit and stuff. They were like brownish orangish, and they were so cute. They didn't do anything at first, but 30 minutes later of them being in my presence was like awesome for them. They were a bit scared, but when I did a friendly approach, two foxes came up and were licking my ankle and when I smiled, I fed them pieces of apples. They then just wouldn't stop smiling, and they LOVED taking head pats, and their voices were so cute. When I was on break, I was sitting near the huge fence area, and four foxes kept STARING AT ME. THAT WAS SO CUTE I DECIDED TO GO TO THEM AND GIVE THEM SO MUCH LOVE
IM SO HAPPIE I NEED TO CRY
I MISS DEM
