Offering Quality Pets & Exceptional Exotic Pet Sitting/Boarding

Through responsible breeding practices, we offer personable, hand tamed Fancy Mice in a variety of colours and patterns. We are also starting to work with Royal Pythons (Ball Pythons), working with the Leopard, Lesser, Pastel, Fire and Mystic morphs. Polaris aka "Lari", our personal BEL BP (pictured above) is our mascot!

With years of experience in a variety of exotic pets, we offer pet Sitting and Boarding options for most pets! See our Sitting & Boarding Services section to find out more!

Exotic Pet Sitting & Boarding

They'll love their stay, while you enjoy your time away!

Pet Sitting Service

Exotic pets can require a lot of maintenance, leaving you worried when away. We will come to your house as many times per day as needed to care for your beloved pet. We also have a detailed form to fill out so we can care for them the way you do. Some animals only qualify for sitting services because boarding could cause too much stress for the animal, one such example being birds. Please message for a quote as each exotic animal is unique and requires it's own care plan.

Boarding Service

Some animals can board with us, under certain rules to maintain our pets and your pets health. Any pet must come with it's own cage/tank and food to reduce stress and maintain quarantine. We have 2 rooms to keep boarders in, both separate from our collection, one with humidity and heat control for reptiles. Some examples of boardable pets are small cage mammals (Mice, hamsters, gerbils, etc), amphibians,reptiles and arachnids in <20G tank, or approved animals need extra care. Birds CANNOT be boarded due to them being highly susceptible to stress conditions.

Fancy Mice

A mouse for any house!

We have 3 categories of Fancy Mice available, Breeders, Feeders, and Pets. The difference between them is described below:

Pet Quality

These are the mice that have been screened to take out any touch-aversion or excessively nippy ones, then hand tamed to provide you a quality pet that will interact with you. Mice are very smart and able to learn tricks and are very interactive with their habitat, making them fun to watch as well as to pet.

We work with a variety of colours, patterns and hair types, examples listed below (not a complete list):
Colours:

Breeders

Being one of the few breeders in Northern Alberta, we are always willing to collaborate with other breeders from big to small! We are excited to spread the joy of Fancy Mice wherever we can, and can assist budding breeders in their efforts as well. All breeding groups are custom curated with health and genetics in mind, and only healthy mice leave our house of mouse.

Feeders

We have a small amount of frozen mice available for reptile feeding, stock will vary as our colonies do. All of our mice are fed a healthy, balanced diet that serves both them and your pet reptile well. We at Tru North do not live feed, but can accommodate live feeder orders. All feeder mice are subject to availability.

01

Biggie

Biggie is a rescue from Edmonton, he has been given care and attention and is healthy and happy. As we don't know his lineage or age he is free but ADOPTABLE ONLY, meaning a proof of living area and a form must be done.

02

Perry

Perry is a black satin male with a white belt mark, about 2 months old and ready for a new life. He is uncommonly soft for even a short-haired satin and is a calm cutie that likes attention.

Breeding Fancy Mice

Community, not competition!

There are few responsible and reputable breeders who work with Fancy Mice as pets in Canada. Here at Tru North Exotics we would like to grow the community, by helping new breeders with education and established breeders.

To take advantage of our severely reduced bulk pricing for setting up colonies, we require proof of competency and habitat. We are located in Grande Prairie, Alberta but if transport can be arranged we can work with most of Western Canada to deliver mice. We can help with education anywhere in Canada via email or social media.
