True
That why life is hard is ez to do mistake but not to fix it..
The best part is ,she loves them but she remains cautious always... Intelligent
Exposing your genitalia in a water/dishsoap/fox poop stew however is not very clever.
@@unirod23 well I guess she had no option ... That's how the life of a pet owner is 😜
@@ArcticVulpez I think they meant that she was submerged in the water, not that she was naked. Any germs can soak through the fabric of her clothing potentially.
Blockie Shamburger bruh I was just there last night
@@ArcticVulpez What makes you say that? Did the word "genitalia" prompt this comment?
I didn't realize people would read my comment like that.
genitalia = porn, I wasn't aware.
I've never seen a fox that has that color. It's like cookies and cream.
Froilan James i think that ones a marble fox (might be wrong tho lol) they are bred mostly for their fur on fur farms and stuff, its really sad

This comment section was surprisingly wholesome, I was expecting r/cursedcomments material.

"Don't you dare bite me." I wouldn't do this with my dog when his mouth is so close to my face... The fox loves you indeed.
depends on the dog.
"his month so close to my face"
hmm...
A dog is on it's "month"... and it's a male... and close to your face.
I'm getting weird images
I'm your 500th liker here & bye.
"just but your arms around me" that's true motherhood right there
😊😍🙋♀️🐶
That fox really trusts you lady ! Wow

Can't believe there is stil someone use this joke
Haha sooo true 👍🏻
You forgot one:
Smell? Pig
The way his little front legs just wrap around her arms and chest is just so pitiful. Bless you and bless sweet Malachi.
i think you were look for another word lol
It's like giving a cat a bath, but it's the size of a dog :0
Not really my cats go into attack mode.
John Doe actually those foxes are domesticated and not wild animals
John Doe no, because those would be tamed wolves not domesticated, there’s a difference, dumbass
John Doe and also, people don’t normally keep wolves as pets, but they do keep foxes as pets, there’s even a place in Siberia where they breed them for domestication, they’re not wild animals because they’ve had all their wild traits bread out of them and wouldn’t survive out in the wild
John Doe not tamed domesticated, dom-es-ti-ca-ted, a tamed animal is a wild animal that has been socialized to be around humans but still has a lot of wild traits, a domesticated animal is an animal that has had most or all of it’s wild traits bread out of them through GENERATIONS of selective breeding, a TAMED wolf could probably still survive out in the wild, but a DOMESTICATED dog probably couldn’t survive in the wild
Speaking as someone who's worked in (human) care - I reckon you handled that really well! Some humans don't get that sort of sort of care from other humans!
her voice "i love you, everything is fine" is so adorable
Yes my disabled dog has had an accident in my bed and his bed. I cleaned it up. I'm alive. He's alive. The world didn't end.
Thank you!! I can't believe ignorant people freaking out as if poop / pee or whatever doesn't wash out in the wash!! 🙄😩
As someone who works as a nurse, people are so coddled these days. Have a heart attack at the sight of a poo smear. Living beings stink, that's just how it is.
If people can’t put up with poop and pre then they really have no place having an animal. Remember the book everyone poops? Applies to animals too! Just wait until you have to cut poop out of a long haired dogs fur because they got sick.
@@jewelhaines8842 Has less to do with ignorant. Try to clean if male dogs or cats spray on your bed. You can wash it 10 times and it will still smell, furthermore the animal will always pee again on this spot. Talking mainly about males, females are not "that bad" when it comes to it. Panic too much isnt good but talking like its nothing is also bad, especially talking about carpet/bed/other fabrics
@@glasperle77
I suppose you DO have a point!! It IS true about Animals marking their scent.😊
These foxes are so talkative. I'm sure they understand you. They are so expressive..💟💟💟🙂🌞
There mostly expensive because there mostly hard to catch and I would love to have one
@@ashphoenix5586 well you can adopt them from save a fox
@@aiurhurtado8369 really?
Malachi has that look on his face……”the things I put up with” 🐾🐾
Fun fact: foxes can fit through spaces as narrow as one micron, but only if they're not allowed to be on the other side.
The patience and dedication you invest in taking care of these animals is impressive. It is beautiful to see.
Mommy: Hey hey hey...I love you
Mal: yeah but you're still tryna drown me tail first...
"I will allow this but I remain suspicious"
The way she hugged u while resting her face on ur shoulder..that's real wealth right there ..my heart is overwhelmed
Rachana he.
Malachi is a lucky guy having a person who cares so much for his well being.
He was like: *THE WATER IS TOUCHIN MA BODEH* !
As I started watching your video, my cat, Kermit (I call him Kermie), was watching the screen while sitting in the chair next to me. (He's my friend.) As your little Fox guy started chirping, or chittering, or whatever it was, my cat's eyes became BIG!!! He watched the screen intently, and froze in place! He's never been outdoors, and he's never encountered a fox before. We're hugging him now, and he's OK, but the look on his little face was priceless! Animals talk to each other! Best wishes, Old Man Fred.
my cat likes to watch saveafox videos with me but he sort of just chills haha
I have an elderly cat that makes messes like that. It's just something pet owners have to get used to, that and make sure you have a good washing machine. Anyone with messy pets can really relate to this video. It takes love and patience to deal with that each day. Thanks for everything you do, Mikayla, not just anyone can clean up after that many animals and continue loving them each day. They're all very lucky to have you in their lives.
I find that while older or show pets get used to bath time, even "OMG water!" cats love to be towel dried afterwards.
Older pets have given us so much love I feel that we owe them care when they're infirm. It's a small price to pay.
So true. I'm going through that with my 18 year old Siamese mix. Can't give up on him. He went from no maintenance to high in the last few years. He still has quality of life though so I won't give up on him. I took him in not to give up on him just because he is old with elderly issues.
Malachi You are such a good boy Fox!! 🥰🤍 (I love how gentle, loving, and compassionate you are with the Foxes!!) And that Malachi yawn near the beginning.... 🥺🥰🤍❤️
He did pretty good for a wild animal and first bath.
@BosnianGanjaFarmer I hate to burst your bubble but there is no such thing as a domesticated fox. In the instance of the fox...that is an advertising term, not a biological classification. Sort of like the term Xerox was a brand name that was misused more often than not. Geneticist, have recently made great strides in the discovery of a series of genetic mutations found, in among others, domestic dogs, but not wolves. The first clinical trials will be on the North American raccoon. No plans that I am aware of, at this time, for the fox.
@BosnianGanjaFarmer "Bust your bubble," is just and idiom, a figurative, and in this case intended as jocular. No offence intended.
@@servicarrider yes he's not domesticated fox but he is also not wild, wild would be living out in the wild, hunting, mating, not trusting humans and stuff like that but he is an indoor fox, he is most likely fixed and likes humans. Being wild and being a fox that lives indoors is two very different things.
@@lumpyspaceprincess2 Maybe it's a question of semantics or perhaps you have anthropomorphized your argument, just a touch. Lets say he's displaced. Sorry, but there really is no environmental element to it. It is not fortuitous, it is by design, that is to say genetic. Hence, your argument, in my view, has no validity. The descriptor's you're looking for are habituated and captive. That is not to say that it is a bad thing, necessarily. An intelligent adaptive animal such as a fox, raccoon, or even a coyote, properly mentally stimulated with good diet and exercise, can and do happily live in captivity many times their natural lifespan in the wild. Which is a positive because many of these animals can never be returned to the wild, lacking the requisite survival skills. However, if you let them outside on their own to go to the bathroom, left to their own devices, it;s highly probable that you'll never see them again because, after all, they are wild animals. By way of example...check out "Tito The Raccoon" on UA-cam. There are also channels featuring habituated animals that, either live or are allowed inside for extensive periods of time, such as fox, raccoon, deer, chimpanzees, American bison, hippopotamus, and dangerous snakes paired with children. Whatever the species they are wild and will remain, ever so. They are oftentimes destructive, normally don't take well to house breaking, and depending on the species, can be extremely dangerous.
@@servicarrider Can you speak in Layman's terms? I'm want to know what you're trying to get across, but it's not really working.
What a well behaved fox during bath time
Better than my cat for sure....
I watched my older sister and grandma bathe her cats and one,simba,was screaming like a psycho and his sister,Chilly,was hissing, yelling and scratching them
Once they got dryed off,they were angry them
Mikayla, you are such a caring & loving person. You found your purpose in life. It's a blessing to do what you love. Wish you all the best! Keep up the good work!
Malachi: (Gets picked up) Awww... Yiss. I love hugs... (tail touches the water) Oh... This is much worse...
Malachi: yawns
Save a fox: runs water
Malachi: runs outside and gets dirtier
also Malachi: I'm ready now
My name is a 🦊 name
What a wonderful person you are,your furry friends are so lucky to have you.
“Don’t you dare bite me” - Me every single month while giving my cat flea treatment.
Holy crap... he's like an extremely well behaved cat!
First of all, the adorableness overload with those morning yawns....
Secondly, he almost does not utter a single sound when being restrained and bathed!
Signs of extremely well handling, upbringing, and an otherwise charming creature.
Mikayla is amazing. She is so calm and loving with the foxes, and all the other animals. They know they can trust her. Animals relax and have fun when they trust. It is so beautiful. 😊💖
She loves them so much.
0:55 the choking half scream of a toddler who was found to quickly during hide and seek
"He's poopy"
*lets him sleep on the bed in the beginning of the video*
dredvax lmfaooo...
It is one thing when you are a animal lover, a totally different thing when you lay in bed with an animal with full of shit in its fur. Some people are just nasty!
Disgusting! That's why I don't own a pet, how could you just be comfortable sleeping in your bed when there's poop everywhere? I don't understand people especially animal lovers.
@@MrUNCLESAM84 they don't necessarily poop everywhere if you train your pet correctly. Plus if they get dirty, you can just clean them before they're allowed to roam everywhere that you may come into contact with.
@@dredvax I do know that but I don't have the time nor the patience to train an animal plus no matter how clean they are I will never accept the idea that they can get on the furniture or my bed. My wife wants to rescue a dog so I told her you better consider an outdoor dog because I will never be okay with an animal sleeping between us, we're human beings and they're animals so they'll never sleep in my bed or sit on my couch, if you're okay with these terms then we'll rescue that pitbull but if not then let them put him down I'm not going to allow that to happen in my house.
Love how much care you show them,how respectful too❤
Mikayla, I'm kinda new here but I'm loving you channel. You are amazing with animals. Thank you, as someone who tries to help my local Humane Society as much as possible, you are inspirational.
I have no idea how I got here but Im lovin it. I love seeing people with genuine care towards other animals.
malachi is a man of many talents- able to and WILLING train Mikayla in how to bathe an adult fox by being a poopy butt, and also has a funky little yawn... also, knows how to give good hugs, even if he is angry with her! that was really so sweet, almost human how he hugged you, even though he was angry.
You're such a good human being. So awesome what you do and your dedication.
Eminem t-shirt and da foxes? This girl is like the coolest Disney princess.
You are an amazing and passionate Lady. Thank you for what you do!
Love and blessings forever to you and your family! Also thanks for
Letting all see and appreciate your world! Wow!
The first whole minute of this video is sooooooo lovely
I was wrong. This whole video is lovely 😊
OH, I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH MALACHI the fox! He is SO MUCH BETTER BEHAVED with taking a bath & flea combing than my rescued dogs. What a SWEETHEART! What a cute, little face & what a GOOD BOY! Even though he was scared he was well behaved & trusted her. Such LOVE 😍❤🤗👍
Its nice to see someone who isnt like "oh foxes are such awesome pets and are such a blessing to have in the home!" and instead warns about the fact they really shouldnt be pets. Even though Malachi is an indoor fox he still cant even be partially bathed without risk of getting bitten and you were very careful as to not let him even come close to thinking about it.
3:00 I love when he finally surrenders to the strong mom's hug like "OK, fine, I'll be a good boy"
This woman lives for her animals.. God damn that's dedication! No fancy house or furniture .. Just her and the foxes
You know, I stumbled upon your channel several days ago and I have to say that it is so flippin' awesome! Thank you for sharing your adorable little critters with us! Most people don't realize how much foxes are like dogs! I've had a fascination with foxes since I saw a documentary about an old Russian experiment about 80 years ago with silver foxes (I think this was the type, but not sure) and how they kept mating the ones with stronger domesticated (friendly) type attributes and with this, they found that as they ended up with extremely friendly foxes (all kept in separate cages), they started getting more colorful. There is a theory as to why, but I won't go into it. I just ended up falling in love with them. But, I would never seek to own one as I am not equipped to deal with their hyper personalities. Again, thank you so much for sharing them and I'll definitely share your vids!
It may seem like that at first. It foxes really aren't much like dogs. I volunteer at this Rescue weekly, sometimes multiple times. Foxes have their very own behaviors.
There are cats and then there are dogs and then their are foxes, it's like comparing apples oranges and lemons all are fruit but they have their special qualities which makes them unique.
Actually, foxes and cats have a lot in common too. Foxes don't have that pack instinct so defining of wolves and dogs. They're more solitary hunters like cats, and that makes a big difference in how they relate to humans.
1:51 Malachi is just like “HIDE FROM THE WATERRRRRRR”
And then 2:06 he is just like, “ help me...”
3:01 also he like “NO IT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT FINE”
Dude ur fox is Literally LITERALLY A DOG HE LOOK LOKE IT BUT HES ADORABLE!!!
I thinks foxer are a mix of dogs and cats lol
Faith The dog lover no, not really
Foxes are dogs but very distant cousins I'd assume.
@Gyro Zeppeli oh my fucking god its a joke... Shut upp
I love the noises the fox makes when he yawned.
Bless you all for the love you give those beautiful animals!💜
4:30 IT'S SO CUTE I WANNA DIEEEEEE!!!!
Crabby little buggers...ain't they?! LOL! Such spoiled critters!
He’s a burrito in the towel! So cute!
It’s so wonderful to know that u understand their temperament and work with that... and then they are less stressed or not stressed at all.. great job... 👏👏👏👏. God bless you all 🙏🙏
what does the fox say?
fox:AaaaaaAAAaaAaAA
Aww, you're so dedicated to caring for these foxes, it's always so touching to watch, because they all know how much you love them. I love how Malachi cuddled into you for part of the time, he knows his mama loves him. 🦊💕🥰
Hiding in the cupboard is always a good idea when bath time comes around, I was like that as a kid!!!! Hang on, I still do..
I came to see Mikayla the fox, bathing. This was even better!
She would have gotten more views in a bathing suit...for the foxes, of course.
😐
@Sean mckell pieces* of shit.
We are legion
We are plural
Lol and we are pieces of shit
Wow,he really does not want to take a bath.😁such a cutie
What dedication you have,so refreshing,makes the world a better place.Love your videos.

After a shit load of effort I got the song-

😂❤👊lmdao omG this is EXACTLY how my Great Dane girl used to act when it was time for her to get a bath🤣lmao too funny!
You are such an awesome fox mom!!! You handle them firmly yet so lovingly. 🥰
My favorite part is wrapping them up like a little baby!!!
this is soooo cuteee, your bond with your animals, aww I'm so glad I came across your channel! :)
Foxes are so whiiiinnnneeeeyyy, they're cats in the body of a small dog
I like her a lot lol she’s amazing at trying to clean them and the fox is like a cat in water lol
Malachi is very handsome and sweet. I never realized how large an adult fox can be.

Me: R They gonna have a dance?
Bathing a fox seems like bathing a cat. It's not something you'd usually do, but when you have to...
I have some really mean Siamese cats but I gave them a bath before for being too messy after the vet. They would claw the vets face off if they could but will not do anything to me giving it a bath.
You did this wonderfully, and all is well!!👍
You are an amazing person....I just stumbled on your vids and can’t get over how caring you are
i like how he peed in the water and u still just sat in it.
"i know you're wet but SO AM I!!"
"Slowly emerged the fox" is such a cute phrase
How sweet I adore your videos, you have a kind heart 💔
Get a dog bathtub. Some models come with a removable base/legs and attached to a hose or install nozzle. Could install tub outside or in a shed or mudroom. Also more sanitary and better control as you are not in the tub with them.
Mikayla : getting the bath ready
Malchi : Oh hecc she is going to bathe me now, better hide from hooman.
Goes into the sink cupboard.
Every day I wake up in the morning and when I open my phone I watch these foxes and it melts my heart. I watch it because it just gives me a positive outlook. I love this channel.
You are amazing. All you do for the fur babies. Good for you
Malachi behaved much better than many dogs at the groomers, Such a good boi.
It doesn’t even look like a fox because of the colour, it looks like a weird racoon at first glance 🤣
ThaBoss76000 He kind of looks like a skunk to be honest but he looks nice.like a nice skunk that doesn’t make bad smells
Red foxes have been bred in all sorts of colors just like dogs.
To all the people freaking out about the fox being on her bed.. Uh, have y'all ever heard of a washing machine!? 🙄
Jake Shattuck it can be a shitty world in more ways than one,lol.
Jake Shattuck what a crappy thing to say.
bryanfukingfox lol
I don't see anyone freaking out about it. Maybe you should relax a bit.
OMG! So cute. I love how you love these babies. You are awesome. I am glad the world has people like you
Omg Malachi is so cute, love the noises he makes.
Wow, shes good! Really good!
Ive only seen a cpl of her posts, so im new. Shes really good tho
Is no-one going to comment about how beautiful the lady is...🤩
You are the best animal mom. ❤
You are so good to them and also careful since these cuties can bite.
Malachi is beautiful. Especially poop free. Lol
Mikayla gave you a fox hug he is a good fox boy i love Mikayla and all the fox you have
