JGalanos Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Inside your house, they will snuggle on a bed like a cat. Interesting ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Dragonfly Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I dunno about a fox as a pet. I read somewhere that they will shred the furniture and the carpet into little pieces... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 When I was a kid in grade school my neighbor had a red fox a a pet. They kept it outside. But it was just as friendly as any dog but a little bit more skittish. I couldn't imagine keeping one in the house, though. The way I grew up, any dog bigger than a Poodle or a Schnauzer was considered to be an "outside dog." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Did you guys notice the price tag for one fox? In my opinion, that 's way too much money to spend on a pet. Tricia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idorace Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 $6,000? Somebody is smoking crack. Try $350. http://www.pluba.com/Classified/DisplayAd.asp?id=15347 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mailonfurs Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 I didn't notice the price. They are probably selling them trained etc but still this is a lot of money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idorace Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 There is another big problem, they smell like musk, my friend use to have one. I don't know if the gland can be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billhenry1234 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 If it gets to expensive or sheds too much there is always an easy solution. Make it into a new hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worker 11811 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Or, after the fox lives its life and passes away, you can wear it and keep it with you forever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grouchomg Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 My cousin H had a fox. He was a biology teacher and found her on the way to school one morning. She had been hit by a car. H nursed her back to health and had her for a cohabitating mammal for a year or so. The fox, Reynard, was quite friendly. However, he eventually made it through the pasture fence and went to live on his own, which is probably for the best for a non-domestic critter. H also had a bobcat for a while, raised from a kitten. His name was Bob (duh!). TyG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
