Exactly, Although the fox looks so similar to your furry cat. However, it is a canine.
A simple way to distinguish feline canids is to watch their paws and tails. Canines cannot retract their claws, while felines can retract their feet freely. In addition, the tail of a canine is always covered with a lot of hair which is thick and short, while the tail of a feline is long and thin.
But the main way to distinguish them is from the genetic point of view. After all, how species converge and evolve doesn’t change the genes.
2.The call of a fox ?

In ancient China, the fox was an auspicious beast that signified good luck. With its nine tails, it was able to make the country prosperous and its descendants flourish.
The Japanese regard the fox as a messenger of the god Inari, a god in charge of agricultural harvests because in ancient times many Japanese villages would judge whether there would be a good harvest in the coming year by the bark or bite marks of the fox.
