I watch this channel a fair bit, so seeing this news is pretty hard to digest.

Here’s my Dixiedo Fox fanart! 🧡🧡

READ THIS: ⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️

This original drawing of mine was for an September 2024 art contest presented by SaveaFox Rescue and I participated this by drawing my favorite fox who is officially crowned as 👑 queen 👑 by Miss Mikayla Raines: Dixiedo 🦊✨

Yes, she’s super loved by her fans including myself! 🥰

Anyway, congratulations to the winners selected by SaveaFox! Though I didn’t win the art contest but I did had fun! 😄😄 Remember this: winning art contests isn’t always the main thing, it’s all about emphasizing the value of personal growth, self-expression, and the joy of creating over external recognition. It highlights that art is about the journey of self-discovery, creativity, and sharing one’s unique perspective with the world. Even if you don’t win, the experience of learning, connecting with others, and expressing yourself authentically holds more lasting value than a trophy or prize. Success can be found in the impact your art has on others, the fulfillment it brings you, and the lessons learned along the way.

That’s what it’s all about. 😉👍

Therefore, I had fun participating this and I love this concept drawing of mine featuring Dixie! I always love watching those cute fox videos, such precious and adorable little fluffy critters. I wish the entire organization of SaveaFox Rescue to continue saving foxes from fur farms and giving them beautiful, opened homes to run away and feel free. That’s all.

Give a ❤️ to show respect. Peace! ✌️😌

SaveAFox MN had an event today that me and fam went to.

They brought Umbreon (larger girl/black frosted) and Cass and Chowder (baby kits)

Umbreon did not care and napped even with people coming in to pet her.

So you uh, read all those responses about your save a fox defense post?

Didn’t have time to read all of them, but I saw some, saw how it made the post blow up with a bunch of people arguing for or against (mostly against from what I saw). I don’t claim to be an expert and I definitely didn’t foresee this blowing up like it did, but let me just clear some things up.

When I talked about Mouse and Valentine, I wanted to rebut the original point about fur farms allegedly not being inherently bad. I wanted to show the negative consequences they have on the foxes, whether it be Chediak-Higashi syndrome like Mouse or gingival hyperplasia like Valentine. A lot of people were arguing that it would’ve been or would be more humane to euthanise them rather that spend a lot of funds and resources into prolonging their lives. Even if that’s the case, that doesn’t take away from my original point of fur farms being bad for the foxes in other ways than being killed for their pelts.

Mouse and Valentine aside, not every fox they rescue from fur farms has health problems like they do. Some are given up because they’ve been rejected by their mothers who won’t nurse them.

It’s one thing to argue that an animal should be euthanised if it’s suffering. It’s another to argue that it should be euthanised when it’s otherwise healthy and can thrive with the proper care. That’s what SaveAFox tried to do with Mouse - they were trying to give her a good quality of life given her weak genes, and ultimately it wasn’t enough. It might not have been the “right” thing to do in the end but I seriously doubt ill intent on their part.

To step away from fur farms, it’s also worth noting that a good number of foxes living there are pet surrenders - people buy foxes from breeders with the intent to keep them as pets, only to realise they are a LOT of work and they give them up. Or sometimes it’s due to changing exotic pet laws or simply unforeseen circumstances. Where do these foxes go now? Do we euthanise them or give them a good quality of life at a rescue like SaveAFox?

You could argue, as @zoologicallyobsessed did, that foxes aren’t a conservation concern and therefore all of this is irrelevant. While it might be true that foxes aren’t endangered, it doesn’t mean that we can’t care about the health and safety of individual animals. Cats and dogs aren’t endangered either, but I don’t see anyone saying that all cats and dogs in shelters should be abandoned or not cared for. I’m sorry if I’m being fallacious here, but I can’t think of any alternative to the problem of abandoned fur farm foxes or pet surrendered foxes other than euthanising them all.

Again, I truly did not mean to set off the powder keg that I did. I ignored a lot of nuance in my original reblog and I’m sorry for that. When I saw that people were reblogging with points of their own, I decided to step back as it became clear that I’m out of my league. I made one emotionally charged response to a post that said something I didn’t agree with. I will still never buy fur, but I’ll leave the animal rights activism to those who know more than I do. Thanks for your ask!

SaveAFox rescue, 101PawsnClaws, CritterCreekWildlife, and so many other wildlife sanctuaries have made astounding leaps in fighting back against the fur trade, and have saved hundreds of animals every year.

And yet PETA, the organization with a 97% kill rate, is still more popular. Fuck. That.

Hello my lovely followers and the LGBTQ community.

1. Two female foxes groom eachother like mates. Because they are girlfriends.

2. Shout-out to SaveAFox Rescue because they put out daily fox content on YouTube and not only do we get adorable videos, but the money from the videos go to rescuing and taking care of more foxes.

3. Seriously. Follow them. They are amazing.
