An “animal-loving” family in Glasgow had an unexpected visitor when an injured fox took refuge in their home. The fox – given the name Florence – was nursed back to health by Liz Wink and her four children after they noticed it had a bad wound on its side.

Ms Wink, 53, said: “My eldest son came back one day and said a fox had been following him home and was now in the garden. I have three spaniels and they were barking but she was still trying to come in, putting her nose through the letterbox.“I noticed she had a big wound on her back.

I’m a qualified nurse and when I saw the wound I just thought it looked awful.”After giving the fox some food and contacting a vet for advice, the family decided to help the injured animal.

Ms Wink bought some medication online to treat Florence for mange and began adding it to the fox’s meals.The family even bought a £19 tent for their furry guest to sleep in as it recovered at their home in the Old Drumchapel area of Glasgow.“We got her a wee tent and she would periodically go between the tent and the chairs in our pergola,” Ms Wink said. “We made the tent comfy for her, we wanted her to feel like she was safe in a den.“We have always been animal lovers, last week we rescued a baby seagull that we found in the road and we called the SSPCA.
