Paul McDonald, a local rescuer known as The Fox Man, explained that fox cubs initially bear little resemblance to adult foxes and are often mistaken for dog puppies due to their brown color, distinct from the red or ginger hue of adult foxes. The mother fox had likely been using the discarded mattress as a den for her cubs.

Upon connecting with McDonald, Hemmington arranged for the cubs to be retrieved from the rescue center and delivered to him. McDonald, with a heart full of compassion, embarked on the mission to reunite these fox cubs with their mother.
