The fox that likes its creature comforts: Pensioner's shock as she wakes to find a cub in her bedroom | Mail Online
I have to say that I'd be pretty thrilled If I was this lady.
My own Fox family has spawned another poor little runt that I am desperately trying to catch hold of to get him some vet treatment.
It Is a long painful process of trying to tame the little fella...
Perhaps If I leave my window open he'll sit on my bed :wah:

Looking at him, I would estimate and given the breeding month, he Is no more than 16 weeks old... He's a baby :-4

The article sounds more like little fact heavily laced with fear and hype to me. Woman has a fox phobia and she wakes up with a fox clawing at her face, ummmmm. Right. Did it have the eyes of the devil himself and laugh as it clawed her eyes out?
We have coyotes here and they're really smart buggers. If that fox was denning in her home then he must be REALLY REALLY used to being around humans.

Your absolutely right Scrat. No surprise that this newspaper Is the pro foxhunt paper.
It's a very young cub and I am even suspicious that It Is already tame and they 'borrowed' It for the story.
