The desire to own a fox as a pet is understandable, but the capture, breeding, and selling of pet foxes isn’t fair to them. With the exception of domesticated Siberian silver foxes, which are not sold in the United States, foxes are wild animals with wild instincts and can not thrive as pets. If you find an orphaned or injured fox, please contact a wildlife rehabilitator. If you want a pet, there are hundreds of homeless cats and dogs that would love to join your family.
