A domesticated FOX???
No such fox exists.

Can't imagine a fox being domesticated, but it's true by the video.
No foxes in Tasmania, people thought there was but turned out to be no foxes.

Foxes are another destructive, intelligent creature with a lot of charm (for me anyway).
Congratulations to J Lenni Dorner. That is an anthology I would really like to read.

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

Still not sure I'd want one as a pet.
Big congratulations to you and all of the IWSG anthology authors!

Pat Hatt said...

Congrats indeed.

Yeah, think I'll stick with dogs and cats.

Valerie-Jael said...

What a little Sweetie! Thanks for sharing. hugs, Valerie

L. Diane Wolfe said...

Congrats!

Foxes are smelly? I wonder if it's a funk like ferrets possess?

Yolanda Renée said...

Congrats, Sandra on the release and J Lenni on the win!

CJ Kennedy said...

Cute. Didn't know you could keep wild animals as pets.

Jeanie said...

Oh, he's so darned cute!

Tamara Narayan said...

This reminds me of Ron the fox from the YouTube channel Fox Goes Floof. It was so sad when he passed away.

On a cheerier note: Happy Debut Day!

Birgit said...

This fox is so cute and sweet but I also love the fact the it was mentioned they are not easy to deal with otherwise other people may want to get a fox with disastrous results. I always loved foxes

Sandra Cox said...

Greetings, Believe it or not Russians did a study of foxes and they were much easier to to domesticate than the wolf/dog evolution was.

Sandra Cox said...

I find it fascinating. They've proved much easier to domesticate than other wild animals. In Russia, some of the foxes that were domesticated were sold as pets.

Sandra Cox said...

I love foxes. They are gorgeous, fascinating creatures, though not good to have around outdoor cats...or chickens....etc

I like foxes but feel wary of them. we get many foxes here at night. Great post Sandra.

Aw, that fox is absolutely precious! Also, happy book birthday to Parallels! ~\o/~

Angels: "So is that like a cat or a dog or what"

God: "ummm... ........ ..................... let's just call it a fox."


I'd love a fox, but they are mighty stinky. Sort of a skunky smell.

Romance Book Haven said...

Cute video. Thanks for sharing!

Stephanie Faris said...

Aww so cute! I think I'd prefer to maybe not have a fox in my home...domesticated or not!

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks, Alex. No I don't think I'd want them as a pet either, but they are awfully cute:)

Elizabeth said...

Congrats on the Parallels release! Awww, that fox is so cute, I love their fluffy tales :)

Sandra Cox said...

I think I'll stick with cats. Heh heh.

Sandra Cox said...

My pleasure:)
Hugs back.

Magic Love Crow said...

That fox is so adorable! I would love to play tag with her! Congrats on the release and congrats to the winner!

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks for taking such good care of us, Diane.

Maybe.

Sandra Cox said...

Back at ya, Yolanda.

Sandra Cox said...

Probably varies from state to state and city to city.

Sandra Cox said...

He sure is isn't it?

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

the fox is adorable, but domesticated or not, I don't think my two "boys" would be interested in one.

Congratulations on the release of Parallels. And congrats to the lucky winner, too. Just from the book jacket, it looks like something I would read (if only I had time to read at the moment).

Sandra Cox said...

I didn't see Ron:(

And happy Debut Day to you, Tam.

Sandra Cox said...

I love them too, Birgit.

Sandra Cox said...

:)
Heading over to your place.

Sandra Cox said...

Hi Yvonne,
I know we have them around here, but I never see them. What we have a lot of is coyotes.

Chrys Fey said...

Yay for Parallels!

Juniper is so cute. I want him! :D

Sandra Cox said...

:)
Thanks, Chrys.
He is a cutie:)

Sandra Cox said...

He is indeed.
Thanks, Heather:)

Sandra Cox said...

Cute:)
Ewww, I don't like skunk smells.

Sandra Cox said...

Wouldn't that be fun?:)
Thanks, Magic:)

Sandra Cox said...

No, I don't think they'd be too thrilled if you brought home a fox. Grin.
Thanks:)

Sandra Cox said...

Thanks. I'm with you, Elizabeth, they have the best tails:)

Sandra Cox said...

Stephanie: Understood;)
