Speaking to my mate at work. Said last weekend when it was hot, his sister who lives in that there London town, was sleeping with the doors open to her flat. She was woken in the middle of the night to find a fox in her bedroom. Scared the crap out of her. No harm done but it shows how brazen they are.
Fox in bedroom

Sorry not had one of them in my room since we had kids.Um ok, I thought this about something entirely different!
Ok you got me. I'll see you stupid fox and I'll raise you a black bear.
I think you'd soon realise what fear smelled like.

I had this happen two years ago, similar circumstances. It had been very hot, 40 degrees one day, not a drop of rain. We had the window open at night and at one point I opened my eyes to see two fox paws coming under the curtains, resting on the radiator. I got up, and it scarpered. I think it was just really thirsty and smelled water from the en-suite bathroom. This week i saw a rat out in the open on the lawn. This never happens. Suspect it was also looking for water.
These kinds of conditions drive urban animals to lose their usual caution out of desperation. There's no water around anywhere.

Could be worse. Here in KY a family had a bear drop into their kitchen about a month ago. Apparently it was rummaging around in the attic and fell through
Surely this should read "Vixen In Bedroom".

Err…. Just saying - “KY” over here has an unfortunate resonance with a certain section of the community - who are not necessarily attracted to girls, if you get my drift….

Had similar 10-15 yrs back. Fox came into the bedroom, nicked one of my wife's shoes from.under the bed - within a foot of her face. I wasn't thanked for insisting that she must have lost it on the way home drunk the night before.
I don't think it's desperation for water. Urban foxes have easy access to water - park ponds, the river etc.

My pal Texas Heart shot a pink fox at 750 yards coming straight at him with his Creedmoor and the fox was carrying half a dozen eggs - three of which immediately hatched then flew away; made an omelette with the other nine….
Wot? Wot?
The power of the Creedmoor is quite remarkable!My pal Texas Heart shot a pink fox at 750 yards coming straight at him with his Creedmoor and the fox was carrying half a dozen eggs - three of which immediately hatched then flew away; made an omelette with the other nine….

Are you sure it was 750 yards...not 1000 with it being a creed
