FoxMan, aka Foxy Baby, Chewy. Louie the Licker
Fox is a baby that came to us from Beaver Creek, AZ. He is really a character. He loves the Rockstar and is his constant companion. Although Rocky tries to keep FoxMan out of trouble it never seems to work since it always seems to find him. Fox has decided that anything NOT tied down is fair game for chewing. He has climbed up on my computer desk and chewn on a bottle of motrin eating 4 of the tablets. This little adventure put Fox in the hospital (two days after Rachie passed), for 2 days. and lots of tests and horrible other things he did not like. Shortly after that Fox decided that he would put some roughage in his diet by climbing into the fireplace and eating some burned logs. Now mind you he managed to open the glass doors on the fireplace to gain access. Another round of various unpleasant tests followed this. Less then 2 weeks after his "burnt wood eating" adventure he got into a box of firelogs that were secured. More tests and add some dieuresis to that. Despite all this Fox really is a precious guy. He was so skinny when he first came to us he could just walk through the wrought iron gate that went into the other part of our yard. The mission to fatten up the little guy is finally working. He no longer can squeeze through
DEC 2007:The week before Christmas poor Fox had an accident that was not actually his fault. His little foot got wedged between the mattress and footboard on the bed..and well someone was trying to help him remove his leg from being stuck and it managed to tear the cruciate ligament. Fox had surgery and now he is just healing slowly, The picture above and below tells the whole story. The cast was twice as big as Fox himself
Fox is such a nut. His newest "quirk" is to be afraid of rain. When it starts to rain he makes himself a part of my left leg. He also goes through times when he will not leave my side. I cannot walk anywhere without the Fox watching my every move. I love the guy, but he makes it really hard to walk anywhere without stepping on him.
