| Fox Cafe BSD |
All this time, I’ve been wondering what a fox really looks like. I had only seen them in traditional Asian movies/ or books like the Gumiho from Korea or Kitsune from Japan. Surprisingly, there’s a fox cafe near my home, Fox Cafe BSD (@foxcafebsd).
The
cafe is located in the Ruko Tabespot Blog G2 No 19, BSD. Before visiting, we
have to make a reservation, choose a schedule, and select which animal we want
to interact with. This cafe offers several animals besides foxes such as
capybaras, fennec foxes, skunks and prairie dogs. However, the most popular sessions
are the fox and capybara oness. The entrance fee is Rp115.000 per person on
weekdays and Rp135.000 per person on weekend and public holidays, with down payment
of Rp75.000 per person. The fee includes one set meal and a drink for a duration
of one hour, but excludes animal snack which cost Rp20.000 per cup. I think, one
hour wasn’t too short for playing with foxes. In fact, one session was enough
to spend time with them.
There
were three foxes. The first one was Hanna, a red fox. Red foxes have a reddish-orange
coat and are the most well-known type of fox in the world, often appearing in
Japanese or Korean Mythology. Hanna was very active and a little bit aggressive,
but, she was also the friendliest fox there. She liked to play with visitors. However,
you need to be careful, she doesn’t like being touched on her back, and she might
give a small bite as a warning if someone touches her unexpectedly. My son, had
a lot of fun playing with Hanna.

The second fox was named Phoenix, a marble fox. It has a white coat with grey and black markings. In contrast to Hanna, Phoenix was shy and calm. The last one was an Arctic fox with a pure white coat named Majesty. Similar to Phoenix, Majesty also had a calm temprament. They usually approached visitors only when food was offered.
