  Thermal dark matter, which, after chemical decoupling from the Standard Model
thermal plasma rises its yield before it freezes-out, is a new feature of
thermal DM scenarios dubbed as "Bouncing Dark Matter". In the following short
note, we introduce the topic, exemplifying the mechanism with a simple model
that extends the SM with two dark matter particles, a fermion, and a pNGB, plus
a second Higgs. We explore the features of the thermal freeze-out of this
scenario, with particular emphasis on the exponential growth of the yield of
the pNGB. We test the model under collider bounds, relic abundance, direct
detection, and we study prospects for indirect detection observables.
