Hoppy is a fictional character on the"The Flintstones" television series. Hoppy is a pet hopparoo (similar to a kangaroo) owned by the Rubble family. Hoppy debuts in the fifth season episode "Hop Happy" (1964).

Character history

In the episode, Barney and Betty Rubble acquire a new house pet. The pet in question is a hopparoo, which is a combination kangaroo and dinosaur. Fred Flintstone regards "Hoppy" as an overgrown and obnoxious nuisance until the fateful day that the Flintstones and the Rubbles go out together on a picnic. The families' lives are endangered during the picnic and Hoppy goes for help. Scriptwriter Warren Foster harks back to his days with the Warner Bros. cartoon unit in the scene where Fred and Barney mistake "Hoppy" for a giant mouse. He babysits the kids as he takes them around in his pouch.

Hoppy appeared sporadically through the end of the series and is featured in various Flintstones merchandise. Most notably, he appears in "" video game for NES, made by Taito.
