So Jehovah likes his followers exhausted, terrified and constantly looking over their shoulders for the enemy. Nice God.
Also..if the Fox were Satan he NEVER TIRES OUT...so that makes no damn sense at all.

Love your responses so far .
Here is my line of thinking on the matter :
Dear Father in Law ,
The email you sent has really gotten me to thinking .
You know I use to feel very much like that frightened little bunny rabbit . Always running afraid of invisible shadows that must surely lurk around every corner ,because that is what I was constantly told . Busy ,busy , busy yet never doing enough . It makes me wonder is that stressful kind of life of anxiety the reason why so many of our former friends are taking sleeping medications and anti-depressants ? Could that be the reason why so many in the hall secretly turn to alcohol to get through their busy week ? Is that why when I looked around the hall I saw exhausted unfulfilled people .
Why is the answer always DO MORE ......Since I have more time to think about things now, and really consider the scriptures, I have found so many more comforting ways to view the message from the Bible. A study of Romans has given me a renewed perspective of God's love for us .
Instead of us constantly running should we not be 'standing firm in our faith and see the glory of God ".
Our confidence should be that the God of peace will soon be crushing that fox below our feet .-Rom.16:20 Not us out running him .
----either that or I really like the idea of just saying - Great fable ..have you heard the one about the boy who cried wolf ???

As Farkel said, just change the fox/Satan to fox/WTS, and the rabbit/dub to rabbit/dub leaving WTS, and you've got a brand new story without even having to write it.
Those little fairy tales they come up with are so easy to turn against them.

I hate stupid illustrations ... but at least your response is great.

First of all, Satan does not exist actually.
(I interpret the Bible symbolically and figuratively).In that case evil can be interpreted symbolically and is not literally?
Same for Jesus?
See the end of this video...

Chalam.
You should write an addressee's name first.
And probably what I answer to your question will stray from the title.
That is, "What response would you give to this JW illustration ?."I have my forum.

I will answer to you.Well, I think that "New Thought" churches exist if you live in the United States.

P.S.
I cannot understand well the meaning of the video which you showed. -

No wonder the JW's look so skinny and tired- they are worn out from running away from all the the apostate foxes they meet out in service. I know about that as I have caused a few JW's to take off running. The difference is that I am not like Mr Fox and I don't chase them- JW's are too tough to make a good meal.
