"Oh!"
He smiled and hugged her back
"What's this for..?"
"he doesnt think of you as a pet..he thinks of you as a person..he doesn't intend to treat you like a pet either, but when you growl and act out..he has no idea what to do when you do act out..I understand you probably don't believe he doesn't see you as a pet but he doesn't, he was born in a society like that and parents told him things like that as a kid..but he didn't believe it. His whole life he's wanted to help foxes..he thought they were cool and he still thinks that its just now he has a fox known as a pet now days which isn't okay but now that he has one, he's probably so happy he gets to have one, a fox, a more advanced human and its so nice. I feel he doesn't believe its true.
