hm.. this one was really small and those fox moth (you meant Macrothylacia rubi? ) have distinct orange rings, this one has more like a line, but this picture isn't the best one for identifying... but it's the only one I have...
Those fox moth caterpillars look so similar to my other spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/388... :) just the ring colour is different.. but maybe it changes, it wouldn't be very surprising :)

This one could be a fox moth caterpillar.
