People sometimes assume that a disability limits joy, but this little bunny named Winnie proves the opposite in the most beautiful way.
Winnie is a Holland Lop Bunny with soft white-and-black fur, and in the video, he is scooting along the beach in his wheelchair like he owns the place. The sand, the fresh air, the wide open space, it all feels brand new and exciting, and you can tell he is soaking up every second of it.
The touching clip was shared on the TikTok account @winnie.the.wabbit, and one person sweetly commented, “Please, please make this viral so the world can see true beauty, found in the small, tiniest places, where one person cared enough to bring hope and life to the tiniest, most vulnerable little souls. From one bun parent to the next, a round of applause for you.”

Someone else added, “My heart just broke into a million pieces.” Awwww. Another person added, “This brings me so much joy. I love people who love their pets like this.”
What makes the clip even sweeter is knowing who Winnie is off camera. He is an affectionate little guy who loves giving his mom kisses and staying close to the people he trusts. He is not defined by his wheelchair. It is simply the thing that allows him to explore the world the way every bunny deserves to.
The beach setting adds something special. Seeing Winnie out there, wheels gently rolling over the sand, feels like a reminder that joy does not have to look a certain way. It just has to be accessible.
What Happened to Winnie?
You may be wondering how this sweet bunny became paralyzed, so his pet mom posted an informative video on Instagram sharing Winnie’s story.
Winnie’s mom thinks he may have had a stroke or that he has a neurological disorder that doesn’t let his back-right leg move like it should. She explains that they went to multiple vets, and they couldn’t determine what the exact cause of his paralysis was. Here’s another cute clip of Winnie’s morning routine as a paralyzed rabbit.
It takes a special kind of person with a heart full of love to care for a paralyzed animal, and seeing how deeply Winnie’s mom and dad adore their little bunny is incredibly touching. If you’ve ever thought about adopting a disabled pet, this is your sign. These sweet animals have so much love to give and deserve every bit of it in return.
