@@avabow5979 this is 100 true. Just wanted to add that foxes are naturally very curious and will come up to humans even if they aren't being fed. There was a family of foxes that lived in my backyard. No one was feeding them as I live in the country with no close neighbors. The mom fox and her kits would come up to me when I got home from work and smell me. I never fed them or pet them but they were close enough to be able to. The kits would also leave dead animals at my doorstep. Multiple times. They viewed me as one of their own. Even tho I did my best not to interact with them. They are such a cool animal.

I hope you still enjoy each other's company from time to time. My backyard was crazy growing up. We had Chico the Red Fox, Panda the St. Bernard/Pit Bull mix and two lovely plump white rabbits named Snowball and Blizzard. Some days Chico and Panda chased the rabbits. Some days the rabbits chased Chico and Panda. It wasn't at all uncommon to see all four panting heavily side by side under the maple tree after a good afternoon summer chase session. Dad said that Mom could single handily ruin any animal and make them go against the natural order of things. When Panda wasn't chasing the fox or the rabbits, she loved using her nose to push bricks around the yard. Grandpa was able to walk into our backyard with a white handkerchief and a few clicking sounds and call wild squirrels down from the trees. I spent hours as a teenager trying to duplicate his sounds and movements but just didn't have the magic. When I retire, I hope to spend my days watching the wild animals and hopefully making a special friend or two.

I just knew you were in the UK, we have so few foxes left in the wild because of wolves and coyotes decimating them. I've only seen 3 wild foxes in 68 years. I just love that people like you are feeding these beautiful animals. They're so skinny compared to tame foxes that people have for pets. Thank you for helping this one.
