One sunny morning, Lindsay Valentine was looking out of the window into her garden as usual. She was amazed when she saw a fox roaming through her garden.
An unusual sight in this neighbourhood. At this point, she had no idea what surprises the next few days would hold for her.
More surprise guests in the garden
The next day Lindsay saw the fox again, but this time he wasn’t alone!
Two little fox cubs followed him.
Her doorbell camera with motion detector helped her to keep an eye on the little family.
At first, she didn’t know what to do.
„Oh God, what should I do? Should I feed them? Or leave them alone? How many are there actually?“
were her thoughts as she told the dodo.
The family is bigger than expected
Lindsay was amazed when her garden turned into a fox nursery overnight.
Through her window, she counted nine little foxes that had made a home under her porch.
Her garden now belonged to the foxes and Lindsay loved it!
Living with foxes
The fox family was now part of Lindsay’s everyday life. She provided fresh water and toys that the young foxes loved to play with.
She used every free minute to watch and film the foxes through her window.
It was a unique opportunity for her to witness a fox family growing up at close quarters.
Lindsay took care to make living with the fox family as pleasant as possible.
She avoided scaring the animals and no longer used her front door to get into the garden.
Instead, she used the back door to get to her car. The foxes seemed unfazed by her presence and showed no shyness.
The little foxes start their own life
The mother fox often sat in the garden for hours watching her cubs playing in Lindsay’s former flower bed.
One day, however, the mother fox became restless and was seen less and less often in the garden.
She still came round with some fox cubs from time to time, and Lindsay was happy every time she saw them and watched them start to lead independent lives.
Although she knew this special time wouldn’t last forever, Lindsay was incredibly grateful for the unforgettable moments she got to spend with the fox family in her garden.
