Welcome to Poppy’s Burrow
A tiny space full of softness, safety, and new beginnings.
When you bring home a baby bunny, you don’t just set up an enclosure —
you create a world.
A world where they feel safe.
A world where everything smells familiar.
A world where soft blankets, cozy shadows, and gentle routine become the foundation of trust.
For Poppy, that world is her burrow.
Her little sanctuary.
Her quiet corner of calm.
Her place to exhale between hops, munches, and tiny adventures.
Today, I want to share it with you.

A Space Built for Comfort
Poppy’s burrow lives inside her x-pen, tucked into a soft corner where the light hits gently in the morning.
It’s made of:
✨ a low, cozy bed
✨ fleece blankets that hold soothing scents
✨ her little plush lamb
✨ the small cloth from her breeder that still smells like home
✨ hidey space for when she wants privacy
✨ a gentle, quiet atmosphere
It’s everything a baby bunny needs to feel grounded.
Watching her discover it was… magical.
She approached it slowly the first time, nose twitching, ears relaxed, her tiny body leaning forward with curiosity.
And once she climbed inside, she melted into it like she finally understood she was home.

The Scent of Safety
That little cloth from her breeder — the one tucked next to her lamb — might be the smallest part of her setup, but it carries the biggest comfort.
Baby bunnies rely heavily on scent for security.
A familiar smell gives them:
✔ a sense of continuity
✔ emotional grounding
✔ help adjusting to new routines
✔ reassurance when everything feels unfamiliar
Poppy curls around it every morning like it’s a piece of her past she’s not ready to let go of — and that’s okay.
Her burrow is designed to hold her gently through every stage of growing confidence.

How She Uses Her Burrow
Every bunny is different, but Poppy has already developed her own little routine:
๐ Morning:
She wakes up snuggled into her burrow, stretching slowly before she comes out to say hello.
๐ฅ Midday:
After munching hay or greens, she hops back inside for a loaf or a power nap.
๐ Evening:
She rearranges her blankets (with intense toddler energy), then settles in for one last cozy snuggle before nighttime.
Her burrow isn’t just where she sleeps — it’s where she decompresses, observes, and feels most herself.

Why Burrows Matter for Bunnies
Bunnies are prey animals. Even in loving homes, they instinctively seek:
-
shelter
-
safety
-
quiet
-
a place to retreat
-
a way to control their environment
A burrow gives them all of that.
It sends the message:
“You’re safe. This space belongs to you.”
And for baby bunnies like Poppy?
It creates the emotional security that builds trust and bonds.

A Soft Place to Grow
Poppy’s burrow will grow with her.
One day the blankets will change, the lamb might be replaced, and she’ll develop new routines…
But those early days — the mornings snuggled into warm fleeces and familiar scents — will always be the start of her story.
This little corner, this tiny sanctuary, is more than a setup.
It’s where she learns to feel safe, loved, and home.
And watching her bloom inside her burrow has been one of the sweetest parts of having her.
