From fox + -ling.

Noun

foxling (plural foxlings)

  1. A little or young fox; kit; a fox whelp.
    • 1837, The Idler, and breakfast-table companion:
      The tender foxling, not arrived at the maturity of slyness, who never tasted chicken of his own stealing, shall take him without a ruffle of his plumage — only by pronouncing its dingy brown to be rich crimson.
    • 1904, Alfred Emanuel Smith, Francis Walton, New Outlook:
      The foxling made himself thoroughly at home. Seizing on a huge turkey's foot from the Sprite's larder, he dragged it into a dark corner, where he growled over it quite horribly.
