That is very interesting Louisa and I did not know the answer but a quick Google....


You have to go up several levels on the biological classification to the Order Carnivora to find a common classification for foxes and cats.


Cats are: Order Carnivora, Suborder Feliformia, Superfamily Feloidea, Family Felidae,Subfamily: Felinae, Genus Felis Genera Felis Catus (Domestic Cat)


Foxes are Order Carnivora, Suborder Caniformia, Family Canidae, Genus Vulpes, Genera Vulpes Vulpes (Red Fox)



The cat-like behaviour and physical traits of foxes are due to convergent evolution, in the same way that bats and birds both have wings.

I suppose Dogs and Hounds hunt in Packs and the Fox is a solitary hunter as the cat is.



P.S.

Thank you for the thread. ;-)

Louisa,


the fox is a member of the family canidae, so closer to a dog/wolf, but it is also described as cat-like in some respects, most notably its eyes- slitty pupils for nocturnal hunting, long thin canines with which it can deliver a killer bite, the habit of arching it back and hissing in a defensive display of aggression and its incredible climbing ability. Aside from all that they slink around like cats....


Forgot to add, unlike most cats which are obligate carnivores, foxes are carnivorous by choice but also scavengers, which means they can subsist on a wide range of foods- part of the reason for their immense ability to adapt.

You could always try and meet him like I did for the first time


After the birth of your first child and getting kicked out after visiting hours at Kings, order a stiff whiskey in the Bishop, and prepare to contemplate the big moments in life, past present and future


Wait for a stranger to approach and ask "are you SeanMacGabhann, I'm DulwichFox"


I wasn't expecting that to be honest....


Pleasant chat tho...

Woah woah. Hold on right there... you mean you chose to go home (via the pub) rather than spend the night in the ward on the floor/chair...

I spent all night in labour and headed to the nearest pub on eventually leaving Kings. Isn't that what you do?

Yep. Child no 1 safely delivered in 2003, a whiskey in the very old Magdela.


Child no 3 in 2009, mother in law babysitting child 1 and 2 and im back at the same bar, now the Magnolia with another whiskey.


I thought I deserved it. Even if no-one else did. It's a new dad thing.

      Chango - New local gem alert!

      By HeadNun · Posted

      Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's.

      When does a family run business become a chain?

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
