We lived on a farm with two colonies of boring brown rabbits. We had lived there for years and never seen anything other than boring brown rabbits. At the time we had a black cat, and he died of old age. We buried him in the orchard where one colony of rabbits lived. Less than two weeks later there was a single full grown black rabbit in that colony. I stopped hunting those rabbits and would just watch him through binoculars. He even hopped differently, with a weird leg twitch that was similar to the way that my cat would kick his back legs when he would start to run. I want to say that of course my dead cat could never become a rabbit, but it was eerie. I enjoyed watching him for the remaining year that we lived there, and he sired a whole wave of charcoal rabbits.
