My Vixen

... just got back from our Night Patrol and can report that My Vixen looks in remarkable condition considering the attack of sarcoptic mange which ravaged her coat last winter/spring. Her coat and tail have regrown completely and she is building up her fat reserves for the rapidly approaching winter. Also, Meadow Vixen seems to be fine after sustaining a very nasty wound to her flank a couple of weeks ago. There was a gaping hole in her side which looked suspiciously like a bullet wound and there was a real fear of infection getting in. However, with the much-appreciated aid from Derbyshire Fox Rescue, the wound has healed over and she took food from me a couple of nights ago (only appears two or three times a week). All in all, good news all round.
