Not sure I can bear to watch. I still sob whenever I see his picture or a cameo in a video. We miss you, beloved heart.
I was thinking that if Basil can’t go home and be released to be a wild fox, I hope he can at least go somewhere there are others of his species, but then I googled and it says they are solitary as adults so maybe he wouldn’t mind being the only one (until he wants a mate, I guess).
He’s got the sweetest, brightest face!

Looks like I’ll be planning a visit to Greece within the next few years.
