What an awesome sight to see.. You may have to quit feeding the stray cats if you want him to move on. He does look skinny...Lisa
ReplyDeleteI think you may be correct about feeding the cats. About 4 years ago I saw a fox down by our barns- I thought it was a fluke- but maybe not!
ReplyDeleteCould you throw scraps AWAY from the area, and maybe get it used to staying away from the house, and then throw less and less and by then she/he will move on? I think it may be nursing babies, it's so danged skinny.
ReplyDeleteThat might work- I think she may have babaies too.
ReplyDeleteShe ? no doubt has a den near by...they like culverts and sometimes live under old sheds and barns, brush piles and such. we had one is Ashton that had her den in a drainage pipe that no longer used as such...one day in the winter, she and her mate came across the snow covered lawn..they were so pretty to see, red coats..also very thin..bob said they come into town when hungry looking for food..not usual for them to go around humans.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning!
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled onto your blog while visiting a friend's...and I think it's wonderful! We, too, have been visited by a fox as of late...he is very interested in our hens! In fact, while they were out ranging in the yard...he was checking out the inside of the henhouse! (I don't think he's very foxy, do your? He could have had his pick that day!) Needless to say, we are keeping a close watch on our "ladies".
Have a blessed day!
Laura
Oh gosh Laura- hope your ladies stay safe!
