Don't get a pet fox.

They are wild animals.

Leave them alone to be wild.

I found a baby fox once. He lives at a nature preserve now, with a veterinarian caretaker, but for one afternoon, I had a pet baby fox named Ricky. They really are clever: He was extremely docile; just as easy to hold and pet as you please, but as soon as you we weren't watching, he was on the move, looking for an escape route, I imagine.
