The Fennec is the tiniest species of fox, and the prettiest in my viewpoint. The Fennec fox weighs anywhere between 1.5 - 3.5 lbs, between 9-16 inches long, 8 inches in height, as well as generally has ears 6 inches in size. Essentially it's all ears! If Yoda was a fox, he would be a fennec! Their habitat remains in the wild, so if you live in north latitudes, or similar to it trendy in your home they will certainly shiver. Anything higher than 68 ° F is preferable for them.

Fennecs owners state that they're just 3 modes a fennec are in: rest mode, cuddle mode, as well as did someone feed the fennec cocaine mode. They are extremely hyper, and will certainly be a ball of fire when not sleeping or cuddling. You have to have fun with them, otherwise they will lose interest in you. They are not a tamed pets like a felines and also dogs, so you have to proactively be part of their lives. Instead of assuming like it is an ownership, you have to consider it as a connection. You'll recognize you're doing excellent in the partnership once they start nibbling on you fingers and knuckles, it implies your excepted member of the pack. It may harm a bit they munch, but the fennec will certainly not break the skin.

Even though the fennec belongs to the canine family, it's more like a pet cat in individuality. It will certainly never ever see you as its master. Similar to a pet cat, but with much less perspective. Additionally, like a feline they will purr when being cuddled. Unlike a pet cat, the fennec fox as pet is a social animal as well as requires lots of interest. One can not leave your house with a fennec free. If you leave the house, the fennec has go into a dog cage. If you do not, that little fox will get into every little thing and anything around them. So if you have any type of home satisfaction whatsoever, obtain a cage.

A fennec might likewise be trained to utilize a litter box, however it does not come as conveniently to them as cats. With a cat you just aim where the litter box is, and it determines the rest. Not so with a fennec. With them you need to approach it with deals with, and continuously pushing its nose into the can. Furthermore, I review that the fennec likes a covered can.

A Fennec foxes all-natural diet regimen includes bugs, rodents, tiny birds, eggs, and also rabbits. Currently if you're like me, the only thing on that listing that is entering my residence is the eggs. If you mosting likely to have a Fennec then you could not feed it ordinary old canine food. In my research study I located canine food for exotic family pets at Mazuri for $35.72. If you obtain that, some eggs, some fruits and vegetables your fennec fox as pet will be one pleased fox.

If you have any kind of thought of breeding fennecs, you need to recognize that unlike pet cats as well as canines (and also most individuals) fennecs mate forever. If you do obtain a pair of fennecs after that you can expect clutters of 1 to 4 packages, with a weaning period of 70 days. Also, if you get a "friend" for your house after that there is a possibility they will be less social with you. There is also the matter of them safeguarding the nest. They will become aggressive if you aim to interrupt it. They may trust you sufficient to snuggle with them, yet insufficient to let you come near the youngsters.
