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.

    • Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.
    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger   
    • Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.
    • It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
