The tale of seven bunnies, continued

Picking up from where we left off with the old blog, I suppose reintroductions are in order:


My name is Trouble. I’m the alpha of this little enclave. And with the help of our guardian Rob, I’ve been doing fun little field shoots for the last few years as well as all of the blogging, so I’m essentially the star of this whole endeavor. But every now and then you might see one or more of my brothers popping up...

Havoc was second to be adopted. He’s sweet, sensitive, and a little more endomorphic than the rest of us, but the easiest way to tell him apart is the fact that he’s lacking the black tips on his ears that we all have. And he’s a little self-conscious about that fact, but we’re working on that.

Bedlam is my second-in-command, nicknamed “Ironpaw” by the others even though—or possibly because—he hates that name. Beds is the strong, somewhat quiet type, befitting the fact that with his wise-owl face and stylish la flamme ears, he’s maybe just a hair bigger than the rest of us.

Damage, as you might be able to guess from the lowered ears and perpetually sour expression, has a bit of an attitude—some might even call him our resident hothead. When it comes down to it, he does have a good heart...but don’t hold your breath waiting for him to prove it.

Chaos, fondly known around here as “Kayo,” is Dam’s identical twin—the easiest way to tell them apart is that Kayo’s ears go straight back while Dam’s right one kinks to the side a bit. He’s also, despite the staring-contest expression, more cheerful and upbeat, and the peacemaker of the family.

Panic of the surprised face is very shy and reticent; he’ll pose for photos, but you can tell he doesn’t really enjoy it as much as the rest of us. His ears are kind of funny—one upright, one floppy, as if he’s not sure which gear he’s in. It’s not an inaccurate summation, really.

And that leaves Vengeance, who’s easily distinguished by his extra-shaggy face. But don’t let that superficial gruffness fool you—he’s the most easygoing of all of us, even though he can be as rough-and-tumble as the twins when he wants to be. As long as it’s a good time, he’s in!

And what’s all this about, newcomers may be wondering? Well, stay tuned—we’ll be back with a proper new entry very soon.
