Hi, I’m Fontina

Hi! I'm Fontina,

Fontina is one of our friendly male mice looking for a loving forever home!

Did you know that mice make great, interactive pets? Like any animal, the more positive human interaction they experience, the more comfortable they will be around us. Although mice don't need long walks like dogs, or giant scratching towers around the house like cats, they still require physical exercise and mental stimulation to keep them happy and healthy, just on a smaller scale.

You can get creative with your toilet paper rolls, tissue and cereal boxes to make fun new hidey holes and tunnels for your mice to explore. Twigs and branches also make great enrichment toys. Mice require a constant supply of high-quality rodent mix as well as fresh fruit and veggies.

Mice are nocturnal by nature, so they tend to be most active in the evening. If you're ready to provide a safe, stimulating home, this little adventurer is ready to meet you!

Male mice are best kept individually unless introduced very carefully and monitored closely, as they can sometimes be territorial.
