What was the name of the first fox you got to play with? Trying to rush back through but don't think this is the same thread I'm thinking of.

Yeah, sorry about the confusion! This is the main fox thread now :P But if you go back to the very first page there are pics of Skitter, she is the first fox I ever got to play with (that was in December 2012), but the actual volunteer work began in June. I saw her at the end of April and then from there I met Fable whose owner lives about 10 miles from where I live right now, then Juno's owner, who lives about the same distance as Fable's owner.
:wub:

I try to get as many chances as possible to play with such cute animals :P

Just a quick summary:

Skitter, first in Dec 2012, then April, then officially began volunteer work in June till as of last week. Starting up work again in March 2013 so I get to see her again. She's a red fox or vulpes vulpes. She's a rescued fox as her owners kept her illegally and was confiscated by the state she lived in. Although re-homed, she is very, very sweet to people.

Fable, met up with him in May, visited his owner after getting to know her on Facebook, then I played with him again this morning. Same as Skitter, very affectionate and he's also so fluffy! Her owner lived out of state originally, but moved to a neighboring city and all her neighbors are chill with her keeping a pet fox.

Juno, a marble fox (color mutation of a red fox) met up with her and her owner in August, then again last Saturday). All three foxes are super adorable and extremely friendly! I posted a video of her just the other day on my YouTube channel and blog.
 
I was thinking Skittles in my head xD the color patterns on Fable makes me want to think I've seen the bugger somewhere before in pics, there's usually a distinctions between foxes.

Chicken with bones (raw since cooked bones are brittle). He loves chicken :P Such a sweet little fox! He kept running around holding it in his mouth, trying to bury it in his litter box :D

Oh, I thought it was a big, hunky piece of bacon.

Skittles, lol, reminds me of the banned commercial... :)

Nah, it was chicken, as raw meat gives them taurine, a vital amino acid for development. Raw chicken bones are good for them as it acts as a toothbrush, but if cooked, bones become brittle and dangerous to chew. :P He wanted that chicken so badly, he cached it in his litter box :rofl2:

You mean Skitter, right? Yeah, she was the first fox I ever interacted with. The moment I laid eyes on her fluff, her face, etc, I lost my manliness instantly :rofl2: Foxes melt my heart like no other animal, but Fable, Skitter and Juno are all red foxes, just with genetic mutations that give them their distinct color morphs. In fact, vulpes vulpes has the most colors out of any species of fox done by selective breeding (cross, golden island, marble, pearl cross, fire and ice, cinnamon, etc). You likely saw pics of Fable either in my other thread or earlier in this one :D All the foxes I play with are extremely affectionate :wub:
 
LOL! I WISH :( I would buy the fox some flowers and give the blessing so much respect.


Find some way to get down here, trust me, it's worth it! :P But yeah, want to get a Nikon Coolpix L820 and record Juno and Fable in full HD, high speed, you name it. I have some more Fable pics too!

It's a shame Ronron isn't fond of strangers. I visited him. Didn't get to even touch him. *sadfox*


Oh, whoops, I think I'll change the link to something else. Wonder why his owner didn't socialize him around people, because he had the potential to be people-friendly.

Edit: Fixed with another video link
 
Hmm? LOL No worries. I am being a dork is all. I do wonder why he didn't socialize him more but he was kinda out in the country / really small town. And he's had other people over, his fox just doesn't like other people. *shrugs* :3


True, and foxes are just as varied in personalities like us ;)
 
I have an urge to pet them :c


I know exactly how you feel, foxes are one of the most, if not most compassionate animals out there:wub: Here's another wave of Fable! He's such a cute and loving (not to mention fat and fluffy) little derp :wub: Love the one where he's grooming my mom!
