no, no. they aren't cats at all.
1/17/22- I AM NOT ACTIVE, I WILL NOT TRADE WITH YOU. DO NOT CONTACT ME ON OTHER SITES (lord knows how y'all get them).

(the former message:)

I am not active here anymore and I highly doubt I will be touching this account again outside of looking at some very old memories and laughing at happenings of waaaaaay back in the day. Sorry to anyone looking to trade for old pets and stuff- you'll have to get your fix elsewhere.

Err, no. They're related to cats, but they're their own family, Hyaenidae.

No. Foxes are vulpines, part of the canine family.

My grandad told me and knows loads about animals he even looked after baby foxes, badgers,farm animals he basically owned a farm,He still has hounds and Rotweilers.(Rottweiliers are gorgeus!) I thought they were part of the cat family. But one of my teachers has a dog and it`s father was fox... So i dunno.. Keep discussing it anyway!

Seriously? From what I know, tis impossible for a fox to hybrid with dogs - they're seperate genuses. Foxes are vulpines.

Mountainstream: Gahh, sorry, didn't realize that.
