Miss Nellie is a radiant hippo of African descent whose confidence and beauty shine just as brightly as her heart. As the receptionist and hospital manager of Doctor Wooff’s Animal Hospital, she is the welcoming face and steady rhythm of the entire operation.

With joyful diligence and remarkable precision, Miss Nellie keeps schedules flowing, appointments on track, and everyone—patients and staff alike—feeling cared for. Her warmth, competence, and organizational brilliance make her indispensable to Doctor Wooff and Nurse Meow. However, when she gets agitated, she can get pretty moody and can clean a room very swiftly.

When her workday ends, Miss Nellie dives into her favorite adventures: swimming and scuba diving in search of shimmering pearls. She lovingly transforms her ocean treasures into elegant jewelry, which she proudly wears as a celebration of creativity, culture, and self-expression.

Calm, capable, and always sparkling, Miss Nellie reminds everyone that true beauty comes from confidence, kindness, and loving what you do.
