Fennec Fox Plays in Snow - Look at his Little Paw Booties!

It doesn't get any more cute than this: Our fennec fox Djinn defying the thick layer of snow which covers his beloved sand drifts. His paws protected from the cold by gloves, but therefore useless for digging. His ears sticking out, into the freezing wind. Luckily, mom and dad had some room to spare inside their winter jackets (just so you know, the jacket's fur is fake of course). Still, the fluffy snow was great to play in! Even though the Hoomans stayed inside because of the low temperatures, Djinn did not! He needed to run in the white garden multiple times a day (and even some nights).
Thank you so much for all the love and support!! Have a look at the super cute merchandise, like facemasks, mugs and phonecases, and join Djinn on Patreon!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1) Where do you come from?
I was raised by both my foxy parents and the extra milk-bottle-feeding-hooman in a warm house. When they couldn't take care of me any more (my mom passed away) I got to live in my forever home with my two most favourite hoomans! We take long walks at the sand drifts, I get lots of living insects, meat and treats to eat, and I have infinite hours of play-time with other hoomans, woofers and meow-meows.
2) Why do I live with hoomans?
I come from a long line of bred-in-captivity foxes (over 30 years). These days considerably less fennecs are still wild catch and sold as pets. Most of my wild relatives are trophy hunted; putting a lot of stress on our population. So, please, don't be sad that I live with my hoomans. I like to not have to fight for my home and food, and that I don't have to share my bed, toys, couch, treats, puzzles and sandbox with other fennecs.
If you ever get interested in getting a fennec make sure the breeder is 100% reliable and fair to the foxes!
3) What it's like to live with me?
My hooman grandmother said that I'm like having human triplets who are about 2 years old. I'm not sure if that's a compliment, though... I'm a full time job, so forget about going anywhere if you own me (14 years long). Without the right care I will stay wild minded and bite you until you bleed. I get scared easily if not well socialized and I am destructive when bored. I am messy, loud, a loner, moody, troublesome and a tiny excavator.
4) So how do you take care of me?
My diet should contain 90% meat and insects, and 10% fruit and vegetables. I need many insects, like wax-worms, super worms, phoenix worms, dubia roaches and locusts. The meat should be low on Retinol (Vitamin A, which is in fat), and contain enough Taurine (can be found in chicken/turkey hearts) and Calcium (as in uncooked, minced bones). Vegetables and fruit should not contain too much carbohydrates or belong to the nightshade family. Grain, flour and other starchy ingredients like tapioca should be avoided as it contains no nutritious value. Dog and cat kibble is yuck and unhealthy! I only like the Saharan cuisine.
I don't like busy city's, small apartments or many hoomans. I like a large FOX PROOF house with a fenced garden where I can run run run, sandbox for dig dig dig, heating and lots of toys, insects and food puzzles.
5) What about my fox language?
I speak another language than woofers and meow-meows, and can make up to more than 40 calls and sounds. I produce more decibels than club party music. When I flatten my ears, wag my fluffy tail and even tremble or shake, it means that I am no threat to you and I am excited to play! I even laugh out loud when I'm very happy! I like to scream, which means I'm happy to see you. And I like to scream when I want to be alone. I can bark too!
6) Can I be trained like a dog?
I'm not easily trained. If you like to try you should be a stay-at-home-hooman and watch my every moment 24/7. That way you can put me near the litter box when I need to go, and maybe I will even use it. If you have any treats, I can sit for you. However, I'd rather train my hoomans to clean pee from ... uh... my couch!
7) My cat bell
Although my ears are HUGE, they aren't extra sensible to high or loud noises. They actually contain blood vessels which widen to dissipate heat and help me cool down. My paws are floofy to protect me from hot desert sand, and I walk around with no sound. That's why I need the tiny bell sometimes. Otherwise clumsy hoomans will stumble over me! I'm too speedy and stealthy for them!!

Sweet Djinn took to those booties very well. I expected him to try to shake them off. I'm tickled pink that he got to enjoy the snow. As a desert fox, he is probably used to cold temperatures at night, just not the white fluffy stuff. 🥰🥰🥰 See you next time.

[@Alexander-uk4fw]

He clearly enjoys digging in the snow! Too cute!

[@massinissabelhentach2007]

He is from the Algerian 🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿desert, mostly playing in the sand 🤣🤣 beautiful that he adapted to the cold weather and started to play in the snow The funk is an animal that is distinguished as the property of its species because it does not eat carrion.

Djinn is so happy to walk easily in the snow, or rather snowshoeing with his small booties It is also a sweet fun to see the little face of a desert fox sprinkled with snowflakes when he enjoys digging in this soft white stuff.

This little fox is one of the cutest things I have ever seen. 💝 Very glamorous in those red booties. 🐦

He's a funny little foxie. First time I've seen him running with miles and miles of string and he didn't want the full length.

Gotta keep precious Djinn warm! I think he might've been annoyed at having his diggers padded in all that fun, fluffy white stuff, though! 😊

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

It's normally all sand there, so he probably was a bit confused about thick layer of snow and the anti-dig booties, hahaha!

[@nightponyinrface6009]

awwwwww ^^ Djinn is TOO cute in his winter outfit! He's a very lucky fennec to be able to witness things a wild fennec fox wouldn't.

[@sergeybalandin6917]

Djinn is a fashionable fox. and why shoes are only for 2 feet?

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Well.... It never snows here, so I thought we wouldn't need boots. I threw them away a while ago..... And then we got a snow storm! I searched for Djinn's boots, but could only find 2 😅

[@sergeybalandin6917]

@@DjinnTheFennecFox the video is very beautifully shot. how did you get the Djinn used to shoes ? my fennecs don't want to walk in it, they tear it off with their teeth.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

@@sergeybalandin6917 Thank you! It was the first time he was wearing the shoes, so I was surprised too 😅 But I think he didn't took them off because we were in a different environment (not home). We didn't gave him the time to think about taking off the shoes, because we immediately started to walk in nature. So, his thoughts were taken away from the shoes. But I think if I would put on the shoes at home and let him walk in the living room or garden, that he would take them off immediately.

[@user-rr1zt4jg2w]

OMG Dijinn is Beautiful more and more 💞😭 His boots are so cute aww 💕

[@ashleyjackson2520]

Completely cute 🥰

[@Jimfoxyboy]

Aww, can't tell if he's tripping over the booties or his back feet keep sinking into the soft now. Seems to really enjoy the snow at least. Good way to burn off that energy ;)

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

I noticed too when watching the videos again. It's a thick lawyer of snow covering loose sand. So, I guess he was just sinking a little bit into the snow/sand.

[@rakuengrowlithe4654]

Why doesn't he have booties for his back paws? They will get cold still. Probably also need shorter cords so he doesn't whip himself. Does look adorable though!

[@VRHyoumaru]

My guess would be to compensate for the diminished grip the booties cause to his front paws? Just a guess really.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Well, the answer is even simpler: we lost them, hahaha! We don't get snow where we live, so we thought we would never need his boots and probably threw most away... Luckily, I could still find 2! We contemplated on which paws we should put those. We also brought a towel, but that wasn't even necessary. His back paws stayed dry (the snow didn't melt), so Djinn was totally fine (especially when inside our jackets).

Thank you so much! I was surprised to find out his booties and cape matched, because I totally forgot I had those! 😍 He did so well! First time wearing the clothes and walking in a thick layer of snow with the long leash. And we couldn't get him to come indoors once he found out about the snow in the garden. Most shots were filmed from inside, because it was freeeeezing cold ❄️ And this crazy tiny desert fox happily plays in the cold 😂

[@Tristicl]

why is there no sockies for his hind legs? wouldn't those get cold too?

[@ThereforeStand]

Did your fox like snow from the start or did he get used to it?So cute.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

From the start, for certain! He started tail wagging and giggling when he saw the snow. We're wondering about what his thoughts could have been... Maybe it's in his nature to be happy about snow, because it means that he could drink some water. It rarely snows in the hot Sahara desert. However, it actually did 1 month ago! Maybe the wild fennecs all started wagging their tails when they woke up and they saw snow :)

[@dragonskunkstudio7582]

Only 2 boots?

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Yeah..... So about that.... We threw most of his boots away, because we thought we would never see snow here (haven't seen this much snow in more than a decade!). Guess what now: snow storm!! So, we weren't prepared..... Resulting in Djinn looking like a derp, hihihi
