i really want one. they all look very fluffy and cute. but i cant find any good info. most people have them use litter box. i dont really want to do that. can they go outside to poop like a dog? also, can you let them off the leash or will they run away?
 
Fennec +1..There is a Youtube video of a person who keeps 2 fennec foxes....They are very spoiled, they have there own room it's very nice.
 
i had a neighbor with a pair of arctic foxes she got them from a breeder in indianapolis she had a pen outside that was connceted to the house and there waqs a little doggy door thing so they could go outside whenever they wanted and they would poo and pee outside in the little pen they were really neat pets but they remided me of a cross between a dog and cat in the way he acted lol
 
FYI they stink

I did allot of research on these guys, they escape artiest, and they have a very pungent smell resembling a skunk that they lllloooooovvvveeee to spread everywhere,
You'll need a large out door enclosure for them to run all day..they are more like a dog and a ferret then a dog and a cat.

They seemed ..from what i read to be pron to illness when not fed a proper varied diet.
Yes they can be litter box trained with allot of work,

I with all my reading it cam down to a Fennec fox...not smelly, allot smaller and they don't need allot of space to run.

But eater fox will escape if given the chance, so harness for out side at all times is a must,
 
i dont want anything that poops in a box. i will have to do some more research. i dont think that if they would be difficult to get in ukraine
because they are commercially farmed for fur
