Marlene Patacky’s cat Apollo was not his usual hungry self and wouldn’t come out of his little teepee house. When he did come out he led Marlene to her basement window well, where a baby fox was trapped.
When she got home from work the fox was still there. She called the police, and they called Animal Control and Wildlife Rescue who, she learned, were unable to help. Finally a resourceful neighbor lassoed the fox, pulled him out, and the fox promptly ran away.
