Joppa-Magnolia Firefighters Rescue, Nurture Baby Fox

Volunteer firefighters rescued a small fox from a storm drain in Edgewood Wednesday and cared for it overnight.

Harford County volunteer firefighters take saving lives seriously, be they human or animal. Joppa-Magnolia firefighters proved that philosophy Tuesday by going the extra mile for a small, injured fox. Members of the fire company were dispatched to the 1700 block of Melwood Court in Edgewood at about 10 p.m., according to an email from a fire company spokesperson. Firefighters found the small fox stuck at the bottom of a storm drain. Volunteers put on their protective firefighting suits and climbed down a ladder into the drain to rescue the fox, the email states. Once out of the drain, firefighters put the baby fox down on the ground and noticed it walked with a limp because of an apparent leg injury. Members of the fire company tried to …

These five Forest Hill cats are all socialized, friendly, playful and love interacting.

One Forest Hill woman is trying to help five young cats find a safe, loving place to live. Sharon Kenney posted an announcement this week on Bel Air Patch in hopes of getting Abby, Maggie, Gracie, Henry and Hannah adopted. Abby and Maggie are 6-month-old tortoiseshell cats.
