Juniper The Fox Loves Her Canine Companion

Juniper is a one-year-old, tame fox who enjoys diving headfirst into her human mom's white blankets, because she thinks they're made of snow.

The cute little fox was rescued at a young age and has adapted surprisingly well to her home indoors. Her human, Jessika, began snapping photos of her quirky pet, and the fox quickly gained popularity on Instagram thanks to her sly grin and hilarious dog-like tendencies.

Juniper is unique for many reasons, including her love of her adopted brother, Moose. Moose is an Australian shepherd mix that was also rescued at a very young age. Surprisingly, the two of them have become best friends.

Jessika warned in an Instagram post to Juniper's fans that having a fox for a pet often means you may not be able to own other animals due to the fox's natural instincts to hunt. Juniper has made an exception for her big, furry brother, and tries her best to get his attention whenever she can!

Juniper the fox and Moose the dog were both rescued at a very young age.

Although nature says these two shouldn't be friends, they had other plans.

Juniper is absolutely crazy about her pal Moose and makes sure he knows it!

"Juniper is in love with Moose and spends all day trying to get as much of his attention as possible," Juniper's mom, Jessika, told Bored Panda.

The unlikely pair sleeps together, cuddles together, and eats together. Juniper even sits on her doggy pal, which is apparently a compliment.

"Foxes put their butts on things they want to own or think is theirs," Jessika explained. "Moose gets sat on daily."

Jessika did warn Juniper's Instagram fans that this relationship, though adorable, is not common.

A lot of thought needs to go into adopting a fox as a pet.

Juniper and Moose are evidence that animals don't always listen to the laws of nature, however.

Their friendly relationship has everything to do with how they were raised.

"I brought Juniper home when she was only five weeks old. Moose was raised around all kinds of animals so when she ran up to him, tail wagging and crying, they were instantly friends," Jessika told Bored Panda.
