Anyone love triplet bunk beds?! Here we have Hayden (top) Haze (middle) and Adaline (bottom). Ever since the hurricane we have had to pair foxes to get them out of crates into the enclosures as we build. These three most likely will stay paired since they are so happy!

Worked on getting some flooring and kennels set up. Didn’t realize they would be out of so much stuff at the stores. No leveling sand or concrete. We did get a 10 by 10 set up for now and have pavers that we can level later for a cage! A lot of work has been done and a huge thank you to everyone who came out and helped. I have such a great community of people and friends! The foxes all thank you. 😊 🦊🌀

Fox Rescue Emergency: We Need Your Help

I’m heartbroken to share that we have lost everything at the fox rescue, including the houses where the foxes were sheltered. While insurance will cover the damage to the houses, it unfortunately doesn’t cover the nearly $10,000 in damage to the rescue itself. This is a devastating loss, and we are in urgent need of help to rebuild and restore the rescue for our foxes.

If you’re able to contribute, your help would mean the world to us. And if you can’t donate, please share this post to help spread the word. Every bit of support counts as we work to rebuild and provide the care our foxes deserve.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

What’s it like to own a fox? Fennec foxes are way different than red foxes. They have a ferret type personality that’s mixed with a cat. Sometimes you can love them, sometimes they bite you. Sometimes you can let them be inside without being destructive, sometimes they chew your cords and try to electrocute themselves. Nonetheless they are my absolute favorite species of fox and I think I need about 10 more 🤩😝.

OK I didn't write this song. BUT it was written by my daughter Stacey Faux Fur and Friends. I am posting this here with her permission. Think of this as a proud dad moment. Give it a like and you will give us both a smile. You can also follow the YouTube channel for a constant stream of new content.

I wrote all of the songs that are on this channel, with one exception. This track was written by my daughter Stacey. Wow is it good. With her permission, i a...

Adaline is now our oldest here at the rescue. She is thought to be around 13 years old now. This is almost unbelievable with her poor genetics. Due to her color morphology she has tiny teeth, blue eyes that are sensitive and get many eye infections and she is huge in size compared to everyone else. That being said I am not looking forward to the day we will have to say goodbye to our girl. Adaline is our Fox ambassador who is willing and ready to travel to any Fox encounter or school for teaching. She allows everyone to pet her and is able to be walked on a leash. She is one of the most special souls and Hazel and her are the perfect pair. Huge shoutout to for sponsoring such an amazing girl. I hope we get a chance to have you two meet in person.

I get asked about why I started this rescue a lot. The story is I always loved animals. Foxes were always my favorite. I always knew one day I wanted to own my own fox but I didn’t know where to start. Around my teen years I started getting into animals rights and this opened up my eyes to a lot of things. I changed the way I ate, the products I used on my body and always had this yearning for wanting to do more. I decided to find someone who owned foxes and do personal encounters to see if this was something that I could truly do. I met Mikayla from and totally fell in love with the lifestyle. I had my dad help me start my business and nonprofit and worked with Mikayla to get my very own foxes. I have been one of the first rescues to have a nonprofit status and have been super thankful for everything that has come my way. Over the years I have maintained a low key status doing rescue work on the side, working full time as a nurse, and being a mom to my son. I have met many people who have shared my same passion for foxes and became part of a fox community I never thought I would belong too. I have been able to educate children on the importance of animals and the fur industry and hoped to have shown them how amazing foxes are. While I might be a smaller rescue in comparison, these foxes and chickens and other animals in my care have been my family. I have helped people rehome pet foxes and give them a furever home they so desperately needed. Along the way I have met other business owners who share a similar passion, to provide services and give back to rescues. Marie and I worked together for months before I found out that she dedicated her off time to supporting animals through photographs. Not only does she do photography for sick and dying pets but she charges nothing and only requests that you donate to a local animal rescue. The world needs more people who are focused on the true goal.. and that is to help animals. Thank you Marie for helping me capture some of the love and fun that this rescue has brought me. If anyone is local please check out and see what amazing work she does. Thank you to everyone who has supported me 🖤

Everyone meet our newest rescue Ivey! She is roughly 2-2.5 years old Fennec that was getting lonely at her home. It is a hard decision to get rid of a pet as they are family members. The decision was made to give her to us and pair her with Freddie. We are totally in love with this sweet baby girl I couldn’t be more blessed. If anyone is interested in sponsoring Ivey please send me a message or comment below.

Huge thank you to Brian for putting in the work to finish the fox yard. Only a couple more modifications needed before all the foxes can be let out. We are super excited to be able to get the foxes out without having to walk them on leashes as that takes a lot of time! It’s been a dream of mine for a while for the foxes to have their own space and we finally made it happen. Thanks to everyone who supported us and who helped us (and the people who helped with the digging and posts) we appreciate you all and are feeling very grateful for our little rescue that is our little family. 🖤
