🐰: Do you think a COOKIE will buy my forgiveness, Aunty Mae?! 😠
Featuring: Toby (harlequin lop) and his bunwife Daisy (chocolate lop) 💕 Dr Mae was called in to have a look up poor Toby's snotty snoot with her teeny tiny bunny snooter scope to see if a foreign body was making Toby all sneezy. All she found was a lot of snot, so Toby has commenced a course of antibiotics to try and clear the infection up 💪🏻
Toby was a little upset about having his nose scoped and let Dr Mae know his displeasure by ignoring her apology cookie offerings. Daisy (being an ever helpful bunwife) happily scarfed down all of the ignored cookies - even stepping over Toby's head at one point to reach a cookie 😅
Toby's pawrent reports Toby was back to binkying about 5 minutes after Dr Mae left 😅 Sorry Toby! 🤣💙

23/08/2024

🐰: 😴😴😴😴
Featuring: Sirius and his floppy relaxed 🖤 Sirius was diagnosed with kidney disease earlier this year, which has meant we've had to cease using Meloxicam for his arthritis. This winter, I noticed that he was starting to really struggle with stiffness, even though he was on Gabapentin for pain 🥺
We've been using the Cold Laser for almost 9 weeks now, and Sirius is honestly back to his young self again! He's binkying, zooming, and flopping up a storm at home 🏃🏻 At his health check and vaccination last week, Dr Mae also discovered that his ears are completely clean of wax too now that he can use his back legs properly without pain and stiffness! The cherry on top - how relaxed Sirius is during the laser session 🥰 He goes limp, tooth purrs, and drools all over his Aunty Mae 😅🤣

22/08/2024

🐰🐰: Hi Aunty Mae! You here to cuddle with us? Come on over and snuggle down 🥰
Featuring: Beautiful bonded couple Dolce (brown girl cashmere) and Noodle (harlequin boy cashmere) 💕 These two cutie pies were booked in for an annual health check and their vaccination - Dr Mae always loves seeing these two gentle babies 💙

21/08/2024

🐰: Release my wifey Aunty Mae! We will pay her ransom!! 😠
Featuring: Lucifer (nethie) and his bunwife Chloe (lop) 💙 These two were an absolute hoot for their visit! Chloe was getting her annual health check and vaccination, and Lucifer was showing what an amazing husbun he is by valiantly trying to protect his wifey from getting "stabbed" 😅 To repay his efforts, Chloe nipped him on the bum as soon as Dr Mae popped her back on the floor 🤣 Classic ladybun behaviour 😅🤦🏻‍♀️
Lucifer also followed through on his promise to pay the "ransom" he thought Dr Mae was asking for - he some how added 777 billion dollars to the bill when walking across Dr Mae's laptop 🤑 Luckily Dr Mae realised before actually putting the charge through 🤣

18/08/2024

Sunny Sunday 😎
Featuring: Piccolo "Pickle" Hingee 🥰 Little Pickle is Dr Mae's tiny slightly older than young, nethie baby 😍 Pickle is often referred to by Hoppy Staff as our "Emotional Support Pickle" as he seriously gives the best cuddles and is just pure sunshine in bunny form. Just don't ask the Emotional Support Pickle to do anything too complicated - there is only fluff between the ears, and maybe one braincell bouncing around 😅 We don't judge though, because what he lacks in brains he makes up with the LOVE he will lavish on whoever comes asking - be they bunny, hoom or catto. He is perfect how he is 🥰
Pickle suffers from some arthritis in his back end, so of course, Dr Mae has added the cold laser into his treatment plan 💙

16/08/2024

Dr Mae👩🏻‍⚕️: Am I seeing double? 😍 Or double trouble? 🤣🙊
Featuring: Handsome twin brothers Bell (perma-helicopter ears) and Elliot (double floppy ears) 🤎 These VERY confident, and happy little boys had a blast during their health check as they took this as an opportunity to use Dr Mae as their very own personal jungle gym. Dr Mae in turn said she found their antics absolutely hilarious, and thoroughly enjoyed playing with them🥰 she felt guilty leaving them to go to her next appointment!

15/08/2024

What a difference a home visit vs in clinic visit makes!! 🤩
Featuring: Lady (tiniest rex EVER) who has the most terrible anxiety around car rides, which usually results in her being a sad ball of hyperventilating stress when seen in clinic 😭 This time Dr Mae got to see her at home and Lady was a whole different bunny! Even though she was getting her vaccination, she was still super engaging - zooming around and then chinning every square centimetre of Dr Mae's Hoppy kit 🤣 She was so active Dr Mae says it was almost impossible to get a non-blurry picture! Lady also introduced Dr Mae to her significant other, her special teddy, who she LOVES more than anything! 😉😅❤️

14/08/2024

Did you know that Dr Mae takes all these amazing photos of our clients for the Hoppy social pages? It makes my job soooo much harder though 🤣 She sent me about 20 photos of today's bunnies - and told me I could only post FOUR! 😱 How is it POSSIBLE to only choose FOUR when our patients are this ADORABLE 😭
Featuring: Tibby (such a hecking handsome lop) and Evie (beautiful nethie) 💕 Tibby and Evie are in the process of being bonded 🥰 We hope we'll get an update from their owners when these two are living happily ever after together🤞🏻They were having a health check with Dr Mae and passed with flying colours 💙

11/08/2024

Sunny Sunday 😎
Featuring: Wizard 🧙🏻‍♂️ Wizard is an older bun who visited us on a Hoppy Saturday in clinic for some xrays - and so the Hoppy staff could fawn all over him 🤣 While in clinic Wizard also partook in some laser therapy for his arthritis - he was super wellbehaved and didn't mind wearing the sunnies at all! 🖤

10/08/2024

🐰: Um. Excuse YOU, Aunty Mae, who gave you permission to STAB ME?! 😭
Featuring: Lovely Latte 🤎 Latte is a super clever lil bean of a bunny who was seeing Dr Mae for her annual vaccination. She was very brave and passed her health check with flying colours 🥳 Latte is such a beautiful little bunny - and she's not afraid to pose for the camera! I have to say it was hard to pick which of the photos Dr Mae took of Latte to feature 🤣

08/08/2024

This we are featuring siblings Kala (harlequin with more black markings) and her brother Bagel (more ginger harlequin) 💕
This adorable duo were booked in for their spey and neuter surgery - and were the BIGGEST snuggle buns, both with the hoomans and with each other 🥰 The Hoppy staff kept coming to steal kisses and cuddles at every opportunity, and many bun-napping comments were made 😅
Bagel's sploot photo was taken later that night after they had returned home - their very relieved family was so happy to have them back 🥰💙

07/08/2024

🐰: Pull the lever Trouble! WRONG LEVERRRRRR!!!! 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️
Featuring: Queen of the Disdaining Eyeroll Ruckus (white with the most AMAZING eyeliner 💁🏻‍♀️) and her himbo side-kick Trouble (glossy black) 😅 Their pawrent describes their dynamic as textbook Yzma and Kronk from Disney's The Emperor's New Groove (a criminally underrated film in my opinion 🤣)
Ruckus and Trouble saw Dr Mae for their vaccines - much to Ruckus' annoyance. Unfortunately, Trouble messed up her escape plan - forcing Ruckus to retreat to the P**p Station to consider recruiting a new side-kick 🤔

01/08/2024

🐰: Am I the biggest and strongest bunny that you see Aunty Mae? 🥰
Featuring: Hercules posing like the good boy he is next to Dr Mae's scales 💪🏻 Even though Hercules is on the smoller side physically, his heart is the BIGGEST around 💙 He is actually a tiny nethie dynamo of energy, racing around delivering joy and happiness to whoever he sees 🤩
Hercules had just been recently adopted from the , and his totally adoring pawrent booked him in for a health check - which he passed with flying colours 💙

31/07/2024

🐰: Oh, hello Aunty Mae 🥰 Whatchu doing here visiting me? WAIT!! OI!!! YOU PUT MY HUSBUN DOWN NOW! 😠
Featuring: The VERY photogenic Dotti (grey and white) who never has a out of place, and her handsome husbun Nala (ginger) 💕 Dotti was a Canberra foster bun through the who has landed on her paws in the most perfect forever home! She has grown so much sassier and more confident since her adoption 💁🏻‍♀️ And she ADORES her husbun Nala - in fact she charged at Dr Mae to try and get her to release Nala during his health check 🤣 We love a happy ending 💙

28/07/2024

In our first Sunny Sunday post, we are featuring a long-time Hoppy favourite - Roger Littlebun 😎
Roger is a tiny elderly nethie bun who runs on PURE. SASS 😅 He somehow knows when Dr Mae is coming to visit, and makes sure to hold onto allllll his p*e so he can greet her by unleashing his surprisingly large bladder contents on her EVERY. DANG. TIME 🤣
Even with his p*e greetings, Dr Mae adores lil Roger 💙 Roger is currently seeing Dr Mae twice a week for laser therapy for his arthritis, and we think he looks COOL in the sunnies! 😎

27/07/2024

Hoppy Hospital Saturday! 🥳
Featuring: Avoca (chocolate cashmere) and her husbun Boris (white and black lop) 💙 Avoca was in the clinic to be speyed, while Boris was along to support his bunwife 🥰
While Avoca was in surgery, Boris got to hang out with me in the recovery area - we had snacks and pats, and he had a very big nap 😴
Hoppy Hint: Stress greatly increases the risks of anaesthesia in prey animals like rabbits. As such, stress reduction is our number one priority!
This is why we always support bond mates coming in (don't worry, we have drip protectors for those bond mates who want to try freeing their partner from the mean ear snek! 😅). We are strictly BUNNY ONLY and do not allow cats, dogs or any other predators in the clinic at the same time. We keep the clinic environment quiet and calm, and we run at a very low patient volume. This ensures our surgery days aren't rushed, and every bunny we see gets our undivided attention. And finally... my job exists! As the Hoppy Hospital's "Chief Bunny Snuggler" my job is purely just to snuggle and reassure your bunny as it comes out of anaesthesia, letting them know that they are safe, warm, and loved 💙

25/07/2024

🐰🐰: Yay, Aunty Mae is here! What treatos have you got for us today?????
Featuring: Long-time Hoppy favourites Cookie (nethie) and her husbun Munchkin (white bun with helicopter ears) 💕 Cookie and Munchkin are absolute treat fiends - would sell their pawrents for Just. One. More. Snacko!!
Munchkin was not impressed with his vaccination, but he still gobbled his treat down afterwards! Cookie, on the other hand, was unphased and focused on breaking into Dr Mae's treat jar 🤣

24/07/2024

🐰: I is a big brave, strong boy, Aunty Stef! I can sit up all by myself! Actually, wait... ya, just let me hold your hand... that's nice... 🫠🖤
Featuring: Lovable Leo 🖤 Leo was recently in the clinic to be neutered - and he had all of us wrapped around his lil paw within 5 seconds of meeting him 😅 Post-surgery Leo wanted to show how brave and strong he was, trying to sit upright by himself so he could keep an eye on everyone - once settled in position he was very happy to sleeply accept pats and kisses 🥰🖤

24/07/2024

🐰: Why you stab me, Aunty Mae?! That's rude! 🥺
Featuring: Beautiful FLUFFY Eevee (sable point cashmere) and her two boyfriends Pip (white with brown spots) and Iggy (nethie) 😍 Eevee is a confident lil girl, who was not super pleased that Dr Mae was visiting to give her her vaccination - she thought she was booked in for kisses and cuddles! 😅 Pip is Eevee's first boyfriend, he is very sweet and a little shy 🥰 Iggy, whose NEW name means "fiery" is the newest addition to the family; he was adopted from the where he was known as Rinky 🥹 Iggy is VERY happy in his new home, and Dr Mae was so happy to see how well he has settled in since we all fell in love with him when he was in the clinic for his vetwork 💙

20/07/2024

Hoppy Hospital Saturday 🐰🥳
Featuring: Lovely Elodie 🩷 This beautiful girl is a foster bunny with the and was admitted to the Hoppy Hospital for her spey surgery to get her ready for adoption! We've featured Elodie in our posts before, and I can confirm she is still the SWEETEST most CONFIDENT lil girl bun out there! All she wanted was pats n cuddles, and to be told she is beautiful 🥰 Keep an eye on the Rabbbit Sanctuary social media pages for Elodie's "available for adoption" post - it should be coming soon!
Hoppy Hint: Reproductive cancers are relatively common in rabbits. Speying your female bunny eliminates the risk of uterine or ovarian cancer developing - saving your bunny from a preventably painful end!
Speying your female bunny will also help reduce hormone-based behaviours such as mounting, urine spraying (territorial marking), and aggression (both against hoomans and other bunnies). It also helps with toilet training your bunny (both p*es n poops) 🥳 The best age to spey your bunny is just before, or shortly after they reach sexual maturity. Book your bunny in for a health check with us to discuss further 💙

19/07/2024

Hoppy Fri-yay every bunny! 🥳
Featuring: Snoopy the Studmuffin 😍 Snoops is 1.4kg of PURE. NETHIE. LOVE. Zero rage. Just love and kisses 😘 Snoops was in foster care with and when Dr Mae saw him for his medical intake, he just gave her kisses THE ENTIRE TIME. Then, for his neuter surgery, I was the lucky one to be smothered in Snoopy kisses. Some bunnies post anasthesia just want to be snuggled in the recovery bed. Some want pats. Some just want to be left alone. Snoopy just wanted to be cuddled like a baby 🥰 Is it any wonder he was foster failed immediately after? 🤣💙

18/07/2024

🐰: My mama taught me not to take treats from strangers Aunty Mae 🤨 I mean, Stranger Mae....
Featuring: Very soft and very suspicious Pip who couldn't be lured out of his tunnel even with a very delicious treato 😅 After his pawrent retrieved him, he was actually a super calm and good boy for his vaccination! Not sure what the fuss was about 🤣 Love you any way, Pip💙

17/07/2024

🐰: Look how tall I am, Aunty Mae! And also from this angle I look like the shark from Jaws!!! Chomp chomp 🦈
Featuring: The Rascally Rylee .harrrison 🥳 who is secretly an absolute sweetheart 🥰 Rylee is a very cheeky giant breed bunny, and she was having her annual vaccination and check up with Dr Mae. She passed with flying colours and was happy to show off her afterwards for these very cute photos! 😍

16/07/2024

And we're back! 🥳 With more cool bunnies in sunnies 😎
Featuring: The adorable Bailey (black lop) and his sweet seal point plush wife Chuppy 💞 Bailey is a mature bun with arthritis and ear disease so his bunmum booked him into see Dr Mae for his first cold laser therapy session!
Chuppy and Bailey have been seeing Dr Mae for a number of years now, and they are firm Hoppy favourites 🖤

08/07/2024

HOPPY HIATUS 🏖 Dr Mae is taking a well-earned (but short) break this week - we will be back up and running for appointments from Tuesday, 16 July 💙
Featuring: A baby Brandy relaxing in a hammock made from a face mask 🥰 Brandy is one of a very spoilt pair of sisters that Dr Mae adopted as babies when they were orphaned (Pudding is the name of Brandy's sister). These girls are incredibly cheeky, incredibly active, and do not understand WHY they are being forced to share THEIR house with a stinky pair of boy bunnies (Teddy and Pickle) 😅

07/07/2024

Hoppy Birthday to the most amazing bunny vet, bestest supportive boss, and wonderful hooman-bean ever, Dr Mae! 🥳
We (Claire and I) love you, and we hope you have the most amazing day with your family 💙
Featuring: Dr Mae's boys Pickle and Teddy 🥰

04/07/2024

🐰: I like you Aunty Mae, you are a very nice hooman usually - but I gotta say I do not 100% agree wif this "ear clean" you have done to me today 🤨
Featuring: The Adorable Tinks 🤍 Tinks is an incredibly gentle and sweet little REW (ruby-eyed white) lop - while she found her ear clean a bit offensive, she remained calm throughout and only started flapping and cleaning her ears once Dr Mae had popped her back on the floor 🥹 Tinks was having her annual vaccination and health check, where Dr Mae discovered her ears were a little waxxy, so gave Tinks some help moving that wax out of there!

02/07/2024

🐰: Tank you for fixing my teefs Aunty Mae! Now I can kiss my bunwife Millie even easier! 😘
Featuring: Snoopy is a sassy Nethie cross adopted from the ❤️ Snoopy has a set of maloccluded incisors that require trimming every three weeks to keep him comfortable and eating properly. Snoopy was badly injured before the Rabbit Sanctuary rescued Snoopy, which caused extensive damage to his skull and jaw 🤕 Unfortunately, between how bad the damage to his jaw is, and having previously had very bad reactions to anaesthesia, Snoopy cannot have his incisors removed permanently - so instead Dr Mae visits to gives him regular toofie trims. Snoopy now lives a wonderful, spoilt indoor bunny life, with a human who adores him, and a bunwife who he is 100% in love with. The sweetest husbun ever 💙

28/06/2024

🐰: Bow down human, for you are in the presence of bunny royalty 🤴🏽
Featuring: (King) Chase and his bun-enemy Lola 😅 Chase and Lola are a pair of spicy yet sweet, adorable rex bunnies who saw Dr Mae for their annual vaccination 💙 they are currently debating whether Dr Mae will be pardoned for daring to jab their royal selves 😅

26/06/2024

🐰: I always said you were a bunny fairy godmother, Aunty Mae - now you got the magic wand to prove this!🧚🏻‍♀️
Featuring: Sirius 🖤 He is having his first cold laser therapy session with Dr Mae to treat his arthritis and kidney disease 🥹
Hoppy Hint: Hoppy Housecalls now offers cold laser therapy appointments to help treat arthritis, ear infections, renal disease, hot spots and open wounds, post-surgical and soft tissue trauma and muscle/ligament/tendon injuries. Cold laser treatment is painfree and drug free and works alongside your existing medical treatment. Cold laser therapy works by reducing inflammation through 'vasodilation' (opening blood vessels) and activating the lymphatic drainage system - reducing pain. The laser also stimulates nerve cells that block pain signals from being
transmitted to the brain, thereby decreasing nerve sensitivity. Because there is less inflammation, less
swelling, and an interruption of pain signals to the brain, your bunny will experience less pain. Cold laser treatments also stimulate the production of high levels of naturally produced endorphins and serotonin, which further counteracts your bunny's pain levels. Bonus for the human - you get to see your bunny looking SUPER COOL in sunglasses 😎
You can specifically book your bunny for cold laser therapy through the Hoppy website - or if you'd like to discuss this treatment option in more detail, please feel free to book a healthcheck appointment with Dr Mae. Most conditions will require 6 sessions over 2 weeks for effective treatment 💙 Please see our story highlight for more cold laser therapy FAQs 🙏🏻

🐰: Hello Aunty Mae! How are you whatchu doing are you here to see me? What treatos you got today can I have them do I have to share? 🤩 . . Featuring: CONFIDENT Cookie 🍪 Cookie has been in foster care with @rabbitsanctuary for a year! Dr Mae and the Hoppy team cannot believe that this amazingly sweet, ridiculously cute, funny, happy girl is STILL AVAILABLE for adoption 😱 Cookie is a bun that has to be INVOLVED in all goings on in her house - even if they aren't directly related to her 🤣 Whoever ends up adopting her is going to be seriously lucky - the fact that my Luna hates all other buns with the passion of a thousand suns is the only reason I haven't snaffled Cookie up for myself 😅❤️ . . #hoppyhousecalls #canberra #rabbitvet #bunnyvet #indoorbunny #houserabbit #mobilevet #minilopsofaustralia #bunniesofaustralia #bunniesofinstagram #bunniesoftheworld #aussiebunnies #rabbitsofinstagram #bunnygram #bunstagram #instabunny #dailyfluff #dailybunny #bunnyoftheday #bunnylove #furbaby #vetlife #fluffybunny #whiskers #mouf #bunnymouf #love #adoptdontshop #therabbitsanctuary

Netherland bunnies tend to be either 100% R A G E or 0% - there is no inbetween 😅 For this #whiskerwednesday we are featuring the amazing Truffle who is 100% love, snuggles and sunshine 🌞 . . Truffle is the smallest bunny on the Hoppy books. He is fully grown at 3 years old but the tiniest little bunny you have ever seen 😍 He only weighs 780 grams, and 90% of that is eyeball. He is really sweet and gentle and provides Dr Mae with kissies for his whole consult. Truffle's other favourite thing is anything related to FOOOOODDDD 😋 He was getting his annual vaccination and also had a lil manicure. And yes, Dr Mae did provide him with all of the kisses back, right on his little love heart-shaped nose! . . #hoppyhousecalls #canberra #rabbitvet #bunnyvet #indoorbunny #houserabbit #mobilevet #minilopsofaustralia #bunniesofaustralia #bunniesofinstagram #bunniesoftheworld #aussiebunnies #rabbitsofinstagram #bunnygram #bunstagram #instabunny #dailyfluff #dailybunny #bunnyoftheday #bunnylove #furbaby #vetlife #mouf #bunnymouf #fluffybunny #chubbycheeks #whiskers #whiskerwednesday #netherlanddwarf #sweetbunny
