I found a dying fox in my garden earlier. It was under my kitchen window, so lucky that I went into the garden or I wouldn't have seen him.


It took me several phone calls to track down the right people to call.


If anybody else ever needs it, the Foxangelfoundation can be contacted via Facebook Messenger. They responded really quickly and sent out a rescuer from Nunhead


She has taken the fox to a vet but doesn't think it will survive 😭


London Wildlife Rescue said they didn't have enough fox rescuers, and the Fox Project said I was just outside their area.

Sadly the vet couldn't even find a vein to get fluids into the fox. It had to be put to sleep.


The vet thought it may have had a hernia.


The Fox Angel Foundation is a charity staffed entirely by volunteers. If anybody feels moved to make a donation, the money goes entirely to the foxes and vets' fees.

Thank you for posting the links - I had one in my garden who was in a very bad way but the time I got to finding the appropriate charity to call, he had managed to jump over the fence and disappeared. He was in a lot of pain, poor thing.


Will keep this handy in case he reappears.

    • They often grow in the angle between wall and pavement which could cause damage to the foundation of the wall and leave the council open to being sued.
    • If weeds are allowed to grow for too long they lift pavements and create obvious tripping hazards. Obviously removing them from your wall and/or garden is unacceptable. 
    • This is NEXT WEDNESDAY 11 June! Just turn up if you prefer not to give prior notice! The Palmerston from  7pm, turn left as you come in! (If you have been hiding under a rock, The Palmerston is the pub on Lordship Lane on the corner of North Cross Road).
    • Yes, at first I assumed that the bin men had taken flowering plants from my front garden while getting at my brown food bin, instead of reaching over the wall. I was very confused as I couldn't see any obvious gaps. Surely taking Toadflax from a resident's wall is not part of the council's remit? What next, are they going to come round and trim hedges in front gardens? 🤬
