Yes. Foxes are primarily solo hunters. Unlike other canines such as dogs and wolves, their main prey is small animals - they are not physically capable of tackling another predator of relatively similar size with such fighting ability. In most cases involving cat and dog fights, even with differences in size, cats are better equipped at fighting - they have claws, teeth, greater agility, speed, evasion and can also use their back legs to attack - there are few positions a cat would be in where it couldn't be a danger to its oppenent. Dogs rely on their teeth, strength and stamina. Foxes, unlike wolves and large dogs would not have the brute strength to resist a cat's attack or defence.

In cases where cats have been killed by foxes, as rare as they are, the likelihood is that the foxes may have been in a rare situation where they could outnumber the cat that has gotten itself into an unusual and vulnerable situation, or where the cat is injured or very young, thus making it a more likely target.

However, as these animals do not consider each other prey (they both hunt small mammals), they would most likely give each other a wide berth. In the rare cases where they would actually come into physical contact, the cat would most likely see off the fox.

Relatively speaking, foxes pose little threat to cats.

no because foxes are wild animals and cats are taimed animals and foxes are most likely to win

Who would win a cat or groundhog?

A red fox would typically not fight against a powerful opponent like a wolf. But in a situation where fleeing was not possible, the wolf would kill the fox, there is no contest. A typical red fox weighs 7 kilograms on average, which is little more than a domestic cat. An average grey wolf weighs in at around 38 kilograms, and is almost twice as tall, and as long.
