There are six in my garden, three generations, I have watched them grow from tiny cubs to grown adults. They wait in a line every morning to be fed and never dig up the lawn or crap anywhere other than in flower beds.... They never show any aggression to my cat or me - I have more trouble from the industrial-sized squirrels which pee and crap all over my washing and throw gravel at me when I shout at them....

Remembered seeing an old man on the tube with an Alsatian and fox on leads (approx 15 years ago ) he said he hoped to show people

how pleasant foxes could be and how similar to dogs (maybe domestication will happen more,logical progress or bad idea ?)Did anyone else meet him ?

That's very funny you should say that.

Yes.. Once or twice when I was early he followed me all the way to the far end of Ulverscroft.

Walking by my side.

    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
