Flopsy is a female rabbit with golden eyes and light brown hair. She lives in a marsh near the town of Rabbit Hollow with her brother, Hoppy, and their pet snake, Drip. Flopsy is very shy but she does not fear humans. She will let people come close enough to see that she is not dangerous before hiding again. However, if you try to touch her or take her away from her home she will hiss at you and try to bite you. Flopsy is only about 1 foot long from nose to tail tip. In the cartoon series, she is shown as being born on New Year's Day. This means she was born in January instead of December like real rabbits. Her name comes from the fact that she looks like a fluffball (a young rabbit) when she is first discovered by Hopper. In the comic books, she is also shown to be born on New Year's Day.
