I like his ears.

And again, dogs don't distinguish between a grill and a wall, they aren't stupid animals, they know things can't get at them through a cage.You should also be putting your cage in the smallest,warmest room in your house,eg a utility room
If my dog couldnt get into his cage for some reason and it wanted to sleep it would find the most confined place it could to lie down,normally between all the chair legs under the table
Just because you don't think it looks "nice" doesnt mean an animal doesnt

Yeah, except we don't have the same needs, we certainly don't have the same wants. Lots of humans like chocolate, try feeding it to your dog as a "treat" and you'll kill it.
Humans have an extremely low tolerance to temperature change due to the size of our brains, what we find uncomfortable, most animals wont even notice. If you are having to put clothes on your pet due to the climate you live in you shouldn't own that animal where you live.

We created clothes for warmth. Putting clothing on your dog is not cruel, the dog isn't suffering, its only your mentality that is. Dogs like Chihuahuas need sweaters in the winter, are you implying they should go out without one and freeze? Sled dogs need booties in the winter or some will have their paws bleed, so would you want them to go on in pain and bleed, possibly even loose their paws? Is that not cruel?

@ringosis Um, no, they do care if it has walls. In the wild they have dens, they are not transparent and you can only see out of them from the opening, like a dog house, which is why dog houses have walls. Cages are like sleeping at night without a blanket, you feel exposed (and also cold...) and that is why you can't sleep. They need a safe place where they can be hidden. In a way thinking of your pet as a little human isn't as impractical as it sounds, because we both have the same needs

@vinngrizzle No they are not a tame breed of dog, they are a wild animal. It actually isn't a dog, dog is canis familiaris, fennec foxes are vulpes zerda. They aren't even of the same genus, they wouldn't even be able to breed, that is how far apart the two are. But, they still do make good pets, if you know how to care for them and what their behaviors are.

@2244number I don't think they did... Most people don't. If you look on the exotic pet community forums, you'll be more able to understand. Its also why pet chimpanzees eat people's faces off and all that good stuff, because they see their pet as a human and don't understand its behavior or needs. Even research though, is not good enough. My mother did a ton of research before getting a wolfdog, and well, bad things still happened, but it wasn't the wolfdogs fault, just my moms.

@cumgullet88 Also, PACK? LOL. Chinchillas travel in GROUPS, not PACKS. Rodents do not know what pack hierarchy is... The grooming is merely a nurturing behavior, rodents like to clean themselves and their family, which is what your chinchilla sees you as, family, not alpha. When a chinchilla is acting dominant or having dominance issues, it will bite, mount, spray urine, etc.
-
Dogs who have not been conditioned to grooming will bite the handler, but just because they haven't drawn blood doesn't mean they don't find the experience negative. Further attempts to groom the dog without making the negative experience positive, will only result in more turmoil when it comes to grooming, especially if you only make the experience even more negative.
-
@cumgullet88 Um, chinchillas are rodents. Fennec foxes are canids. Completely different behaviors. It is indeed pissed off, because canids will put their ears back when submitting. He has his ears back showing submission but was biting to try and stop her/him, him/her having a finger left means nothing, it merely means the fox did not want to hurt him/her.
lol. do not get wet! do not feed after midnight!!!
why the hell do we have to have so many people trying to out-bitch each other in comments? why can't we just enjoy the videos that are posted? c'mon... i'd bet if we stuck pieces of coal up all your tight asses, we'd be rich with the diamonds we'd get a week later. don't watch the videos if they get your panties so up in a bunch! it's a simple solution.

@AnnaxBear Foxes are more catlike than doglike, and if you woke up a cat from a nap and tried to play with it, the crankiness would be the same. Good point though.
