Whiskers and paws that steal the show and our hearts: Inside Bunny's #pets channel

Being a remote-first team scattered across the globe has its ups and downs. Sure, we can work when we feel most productive, take long midday walks, or pause to sort out life’s little surprises. But working remotely also means finding creative ways to connect and bond beyond work emails and Slack threads. And honestly, we think we’ve nailed it—with a little help from our furry friends!

While we’ve got plenty of fun Slack channels to keep things lively, it turns out a big part of the Bunny crew has another passion in common: pets. Because let’s be real—can you even work at bunny.net if you’re not a true animal lover?

You know how it usually goes: video calls interrupted by cats walking across keyboards or trying to steal their owners’ attention in the most creative ways.

That’s how the #pets channel was born—we simply needed a dedicated space where we share photos, stories, and hilarious antics from our fur babies. It’s not just a channel; it’s a movement. And let’s just say, it’s been pawsitively heartwarming to see how many proud pet parents we have on the team. 

Dogs and cats have taken over bunnies, and some of us even have both dogs and cats cohabiting in perfect chaos, proving once and for all that “dog people” vs. “cat people” is a myth.

As Drake, a character from Hotel Transylvania, once said: “Human, monster, unicorn—as long as you’re happy.” Or, as we like to say, Dog, cat, or bunny—as long as you’re happy!

One extraordinary animal that truly stands out is Oli, Daniel’s bearded dragon. This charming lizard bears a striking resemblance to the magnificent creatures of Game of Thrones. With his undeniable charm and photogenic flair, Oli is a true cutie—and he knows it! This little star absolutely adores the spotlight and is always ready for a photoshoot.

And let’s not forget: being remote-first is a dream come true for pet owners. Need to step away for a dog walk or a quick cuddle session with your cat? Go for it. Feel like soaking up some sun with your pup during a mid-afternoon break? You do you. It’s one of the many perks of being part of a team that values work-life balance (and tail-wagging breaks). Our furry coworkers remind us daily why balance matters.

And who’s the absolute star of our pet channel? That title was claimed long ago by the black labrador Monty and his proud owner, Aron. Together, they treat us to daily cuteness doses that brighten daily. Let’s face it—Monty is a star, and there’s no denying it!

Now, without further ado, here are some of the cutest contributions from our very own #pets channel.

Brace yourselves—serious cuteness overload ahead!

Sometimes, the best teammates have fur, whiskers, or even scales. Here’s to the little moments of joy our pets bring, making every remote day brighter.
