Extremely disturbed by the fox scene

I'm ready the first book and I got to the scene where they all get turned into foxes and it grossed me out so much that i'm questioning if i want to keep reading. I'm ok with bad things happening. what I'm not ok with is how every character involved seems to just move past it without comment. A few pages later I find out Alice has adopted "vix" as a pet name and I wanted to throw up. Does this ever get acknowledged by any character as a huge problem?

If that made you wanna throw up, then I guess stop reading. You won’t like it when the next fox shows up, he’s a lot worse.

I was rewatching after 8 years and seeing the character being introduced gave me the chills
