A fox that was found sound asleep at the back of an Ottawa city bus is becoming a bit of a Twitter sensation.
OC Transpo tweeted on Wednesday that the fox had snuck onto the bus while it was parked at a garage for regular maintenance.
Transit employees couldn't help but snap a couple of pictures of the adorable scene.
The transit service reported that the sleepy stowaway left on its own after its nap.
Contrary to recent reports, OC Owl remains our masot. #OttMascot #busfox

It didn't take long for the hashtag #busfox to start making the rounds on Twitter and by the afternoon the hashtag was trending in Canada.
Wouldn't the #CFL be better if we had team names like "Toronto Ikea Monkeys" and "Ottawa Bus Foxes." #busfox

Ottawa: where popular topics of conversation include the weather, and animals in places they shouldn't be #busfox #elkpatry
