Tame Foxes

May you please consider to have the ability to tame foxes, as they are my favorite animals. Foxes all ready pick up items tamed foxes could bring back items you dropped or retrieve dropped items that are valuable items of major important. Foxes could hold onto an item if your inventory is full, it will only be 1 item and not like the chest on a donkey (I would like that but I think it does not go with the code for the wolfs and foxes). Thank you for reading my request.

    I would love to see tame foxes, but I do not agree that it should be as complicated as others have suggested. Minecraft does not use realism as a strong basis for its mechanics and I see little reason for foxes to break that trend.

    Keep the wild foxes as wild, keep the friendly foxes you breed from them, but make the friendly foxes tamable directly. Some people suggest chicken, others suggest berries. Either (or maybe both) are fine.

    I do not believe a pet mob should ever be decorative, so I don't just want them tame for taming sake. I also don't think having them just be the same as wolves is good, because then why have wolves? They shouldn't help hunt like wolves do, but should instead pick up items for you.

    Finally, since cats scare creepers, and dogs scare skeletons, I think foxes should scare spiders. While I said before that realism is not a strong basis for Minecraft, this is a minor call back to the fact that foxes in reality are omnivorous and eat bugs.

    I was so happy when foxes were added to the game! Except, when I found out you couldn’t tame them, I was a little depressed. Mojang should TOTALLY do this, Foxes are the best animal ever! Maybe they could be tamed with chicken or sweet berries?

    I really do think this a good, I love the idea of tamed foxes. Here's just a few ideas I thought of that I think would be cool. First I think that tamed foxes can either stay the same color, or possible change to more domesticated colors, like brown, tan, or even (on rare occasions) A mix, like a marble fox (look it up). I like the idea of tamed foxes picking up items and even hunting, maybe have different items at different times of the day or difference in rarity. I also think since cats sit at random, and parrots dance to music, maybe foxes could just randomly wonder off, but come back with in ten-fifteen minutes(maybe this could be when they hunt). Another idea i had, which probably won't be put into the game, is maybe foxes can go unnoticed by certain mobs, or even be able to turn partial or even wholly invisible.

     

    I also agree with some or what the people are saying below about the foxes, make sure to check out what they've got to say aswell, and even give them a vote if you like the idea as well.

    PLEAAAAASE. We all want this.

    Why can we only half tame them??? What's the point of only being able to do it half way?

    We should be able to tame them like cats and dogs. It'll objectively make the game better. Who cares if it's not as realistic. This game has mixed levels of fantasy already, like endermen. Some level fantasy makes the game better and really wouldn't hurt.

    In real life, foxes are not usually kept as pets, and I would rather that Minecraft keep things more realistic in that respect.

    I like this idea, but I feel like Mojang won't do this since foxes can be dangerous in real life though they did add the feature of wild wolves being tamed so I guess there still is a chance.
