Edited: now I have the old folk song The Fox Is On The Town O!" stuck in my head ....
lol thts funny .Yes there was 4 'baby' foxes , prob about 5 years ago now its not happened since that i know of. It was a great sight to see it and mum keeping guard . No pics i,m afraid i didnt have a photo phone at that point

Boycey would definately pose a threat to 1 fox i reckon , a gang you never know.
For Tigger im too aware so its some fox prevention maybe and may get a harness at 1st . I,ll do it nice and slow i,m sure it,ll all be good eventually

photophone lol lol soz camera phone

Re: New member of the family


As Angie pointed out, taking them out on a harness gets them able to know the territory and get oriented.... good to know. All of mine over the years loved going walkies here in the City: funny looks from people who were unused to seeing leash trained cats!
