Subject: RE: BS: Advice needed on fox
Well it's not looking good for the fox. He spent last night in one of the buildings and when my boss and her husband were milking, turned up in the milking parlour. They couldn't get him out and in the end had to push him with a broom. He then went and lay down and wouldn't get up. My boss went to 'phone the RSPCA to get them to come and put him down as he is obviously ill. At that point the vet arrived to do the annual TB test. As he opened his boot and started to get stuff out the fox leaped up and ran and hasn't been seen since. He's obviously been taken to the vet before!
I have given my boss the 'phone number for the National Fox Welfare thingy and the sheet about feeding them. Still haven't heard from Derbyshire Foxes though. We now just have to wait and see if he turns up
