Fox

Foxes are present in The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs as a small dog breed with a unique fox voice. Foxes also appear as NPCs in The Sims 4: Cottage Living during certain challenges.
==The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs==
Like other dog breeds, foxes and fox crossbreeds occasionally appear as randomly generated strays in Brindleton Bay, as well as pets in randomly generated households. They can be adopted by Sims and can mate with dogs. The default traits for foxes are independent and troublemaker. Aside from their appearance and voices, however, they behave like normal dogs.
==The Sims 4: Cottage Living==
The Cottage Living versions have more fox-like animations and cannot be adopted like the Cats & Dogs versions. Foxes only appear with lots that have the "Wild Foxes" lot challenge; every lot in Henford-on-Bagley has this enabled. 
Foxes can attack and kill chickens, and wild rabbits, but there are multiple ways for players to prevent fox attacks. Sims can shoo foxes that are preparing to attack other animals. Foxes can also be befriended with gifts from a Sim's inventory; the fox will not attack that Sim's animals. Sims with a high enough handiness skill can upgrade a chicken coop with a "Fox Be-Gone Alarm." Owned llamas and pet dogs can ward off foxes by spitting on them or chasing them away, respectively.
==Trivia==
* A fox can briefly be seen interacting with a bloodhound in the reveal trailer for Cats & Dogs, as a possible reference to the 1967 novel The Fox and the Hound, or the 1981 film adaptation by Disney.
* Prior to patch 162, foxes from Cottage Living could be added to playable households without cheats or mods, as fox households were visible in Manage Worlds. However, patch 162 made them hidden.
* While fox & dogs are both canids, in the real world it is impossible for foxes & dogs to interbreed to produce hybrids, thus making foxes being classified as a breed of Dog in Cats & Dogs, similar to Raccoons being classified as a breed of Cat.
* Pesky foxes can be killed via shift-click. While it seems morbid and extreme, some players shift-click the fox and select "Kill by Old Age". The fox will stop what it's doing and lay down. The Grim Reaper comes soon after to finish the job.
* Foxes can steal harvestables right off your plants. However, they often drop the food after.
