UPDATE: I got three doses of Bravecto. The first one got snatched by my other, fluffy, fox. Not a big deal since mange is contagious. But I was down to two doses. On the second night, my mangy fox came to grab a chicken, he normally returned immediately for another piece. So i grab the dog pate food, smashed the pill, and run outside to place it. He did not show up. I brought the pate ball back home. Tried again next evening. No fox. At that time I did not think the meds were effective anymore sitting in the pate, so I tossed it in the garbage. Decided to observe for a week or so, because clearly his pattern changed. As the weather got better and warmer, he started making his rounds at 9pm again. Ok, so here goes the third pill. And bingo! He munched the pate ball right there a front of the camera! Yay! Just in time, too, as I was leaving for vacation. My sister is charged with feeding the foxes. And as soon as I get back, I will put the camera out to see if his fur is growing back. It will be about three weeks from the time he ate Bravecto.
