A YOUTUBER has been slammed after forcing her pet fennec fox to be VEGAN after the creature was left "half blind and suffering convulsions".

Vegan blogger Soniae Sae from Barcelona has become known as an animal rights activist on her YouTube channel, where she gives advice on how to live from a plant-based diet.

But after posting numerous photos of her shockingly thin fox Jumanji, her fans have turned against her and accused her of hypocritically abusing animals.

Sonia herself has admitted Jumanji has suffered numerous health ailments, manifesting in weight loss, hair loss and partial sight.

In one shocking Instagram post she refers to his "spontaneous convulsions" and "half blindness".

But she insists that his poor health is unrelated to the vegan diet she has fed him ever since she rescued him from a breeder four years ago.

The series of photos shared by Sonia online over the years of her terrifyingly thin fox have stoked fears that the vegan diet is causing him to waste away.

Fennec foxes usually feed on mealworms, crickets, bugs, mice and insects - a far cry from his current diet.

Concerned Facebook user Alice Natanya Moore wrote: "Sonia has refused to listen to experts who are all appalled at her treatment of Jumanji and have contacted her regarding the health of her fennec fox."

She added that the animal's omnivore diet was "NOT enough".

A further post stated that sanctuaries and fox rescues had been contacted about the alleged animal abuse, and that police were now investigating.

A night vision photo shows Sonia joking: "Graphic violence to a Hello Kitty"as the fox descends on a Hello Kitty toy.

But the photo is more noticeable for the terrifying thinness of Jumanji's legs - while in other photos and videos Instagram users commented on the fox's patches of sore skin and its apparent lethargy.

The YouTube blogger has defended the diet, writing on her Facebook page that Jumanji "hasn't shown any signs of malnutrition for around three years".

Attacking people's "ignorance", she said Jumanji had a healthy diet and was consuming the right amount of aminoacids.

She told Sun Online: "Jumanji is fine. I would never do something to jeopardise his health.

"The pictures that have been shared are from a pollen allergy he has - in fact, most of them are from 2015 when he was being fed meat."
