JOHNNY’S FOXYNALITY

Personality

Johnny is our special boy! We were contacted by a wildlife rehabber who had this very tame wild fox and they were pretty sure he was either taken from the wild and raised as a pet or was captive bred and was no longer wanted. He ended up with a wildlife rehabber when the people dropped him off saying they found a wild fox kit. Unfortunately, He was put into the precarious position of neither being captive bred or wild and therefore his life was in Jeopardy. It is illegal to take a wild fox out of the wild and make it a pet as it is also illegal to release a captive bred fox into the wild. So we worked together with the wildlife rehabber and took him to 2 different vets who wrote letters that he is no longer releasable. His fate is still pending until his case is signed off on by FWC; our governing body. We remain under the umbrella of the rehabber as a safe rescue for little Johnny until the state signs off on his forever home at Fox Tales Florida.
Johnny spends his days playing with Winston or sleeping on the bed or in his favorite chair. He zooms around the house barely touching the ground. Many times we find all his favorite toys hidden under the pillows of the couch or the pillows on the bed. He is surely a special fox.
