The Fox’s Trousers is a queer family owned business built on our interest in biology and puzzles.
We aim to educate, fascinate or help you to remember your pet, your way. Whether you’re after a skull, a full skeleton or a very specific thing involving the cleaning of bones we can help! We’ve even been known to process human remains – as long as we have the consent of the owner of course! There are a fair few amputated limbs, replaced hips and other removed parts that have come through us and then returned to their owners. Wet specimens are also an option, if a thing in a jar is what floats your boat.
We’re based in the small South Waikato town of Putaruru, central to everywhere. One day we very much hope to open a physical store with permanent displays for people to come and look at. For the moment we content ourselves with an online presence, and the workshop in the basement.
We’re animal lovers and regularly foster kittens as well as having several cats of our own. Living things are awesome, and the bones they leave behind are just as cool.
The Fox’s Trousers are members of the New Zealand Taxidermy Association and have gained Best In Category – Skeleton and Blue Ribbon awards at their national competition. This award also lead to an article in the Waikato Times.
