You can own foxes (AND RACCOONS!)
It was just confirmed by Grant that foxes can be owned and created in cas. So for those of you upset about no horses, apparently foxes replaced them. Wonder if we can own racoons too or any o...

Don't foxes attack smaller animals? Aren't raccoons the poster-animal for rabies? I'm side-eyeing it all
I come from a place where there's a LOT of raccoons, and we are told to not feed them cause they can have diseases like rabies, plus feeding wild animals is dangerous not only for humans (they are unpredictable, and do bite), but for the animals too, they get use to it, and then when winter come they starve to death. In my country (Canada) it's illegal to own raccoons as pets, in the US it's illegal in some states, and the ones allowing it you need a permit for it, but even then good plum luck finding a vet, really few vets can treat raccoons.
If you love them, let them live in the wild, same for foxes.
No, but some people might go ''aww raccoons are so cute I want one in real life''. Cute=/=good pets. As pretty sure the behavior they will have in game will be different than their behavior in real life, so yea it's just more a warning that even if people enjoy owning one in the game, that it will probably not be a real representation of how they are in real life, same for foxes.
So to me personally it's just more why having an animal in game if the behavior isn't realistic?
Just like people might go, "It's so fun to kill sims in the game, I'd like to do that in real life"? Give people some credit. Yeesh.
Keep in mind kids play the sims 4 . It s not like they would want to kill sims. Its more like hey this is cute. I want a pet like that in real life. It happens when kids like to watch movies like Finding Dory, and some were tempted to get those certain fish as pets .
If children are playing the game it's up to the parents to teach them to leave raccoons/foxes alone - not a video game. I've done dumb things as a kid that I saw on T.V, but my mother was the one who told me I should discern reality from fantasy; and just because Mary Poppins can fall gracefully with an umbrella doesn't mean I should jump off from my shed and expect my umbrella to lower me gently to the ground.
... I mean, I never did that. What? :flushed:
