Overview
Cats and foxes often share space and generally avoid each other, but there are some things to consider:

Diet
Cats are pure carnivores, while foxes are omnivores.

Foxes are often nocturnal, while domesticated cats like to nap during the day. 

Evolution

Relationship to dogs
Foxes are more closely related to dogs than cats, but they share some characteristics with cats, like the ability to climb trees and have vertical pupils.
