Our Story
Hop to It started with one bunny. Budgie Goo — our OG — was found on a road trip through Idaho, and she is the one who started it all. Since then our little crew on 10.4 acres in Missoula, Montana has grown into a home for around twenty-five rescued rabbits, plus a horse, a cat, and a guard dog who keeps watch over them all.
Many of our bunnies came to us the hard way. Someone dumped a group of rabbits near our place, and they nested under the barn and the porch and multiplied — so this summer we trapped and took in the whole family. Others, like Pippin, were adopted out and came back needing a forever home. Every one of them has a safe place to land here.

Every part of Hop to It works toward the same thing — healthier bunnies, kinder people, and a stronger community.
A safe, loving home for bunnies in need of rescue and care.
Fresh, healthy food for our bunnies and our community.
A peaceful place to slow down and connect with animals and each other.
Safe spaces, stronger community, and brighter futures.
Volunteers, donors, families, and friends — together we make it possible.
Meet the Family
Around twenty-five rescued bunnies call Hop to It home — plus a few beloved friends of other shapes and sizes. Here are a few of the ones who started it all.
…and about two dozen more bunnies, big and small — including a whole family of babies rescued from under the barn this summer.
