Hi friends! Reef the Fox here with your weekly “Reef’s Report.” Last week, my buddy Kai the fox made a special trip to the Islamorada library for weekly story time. The little kiddos were beyond excited to meet a real fox (who wouldn’t be?), and their parents had some amazing questions about what we do at Pawsitive Beginnings.

Going out into the community to educate and inspire is such an important part of our mission. Compassion for animals starts at home and when we foxes get to be the spark for that compassion, we know we’re doing our job right. It’s a reminder that our stories — full of resilience and second chances — can make a difference.

Oh, and don’t worry if you missed us. Kai will be back at the Islamorada library on Tuesday, Dec. 3 for a very special STEM presentation. (I hear it’s going to be all about how we foxes are more than just cute faces — we’re nature’s little scientists, too!)

There is a super fun event happening this Saturday, Nov. 23, starting at 4 p.m. Light Up Key Largo is back for another year of holiday magic and excitement. Head on out to the Murray Nelson Government Center in Key Largo for a family-friendly event hosted by the Key Largo Community Preservation. There will be train rides, a visit from Santa Claus, numerous vendors, delicious food, games and more. There’s no better way to kick off the holiday season than joining in for this free community event.

Anywho, that’s all for this week. Stay up to date with all-things-fox by heading to our website at pawsitivebeginnings.org and follow the links to our various social media accounts where you can see cute photos and hear me scream on the daily.

Until next time, Reef, over and out!
