I don't know a whole lot about the indecent in question so I can't really comment.
For the record all my bunnies and pigs were long gone by this time.
From Bunny L -- "(rolls eyes) It's rather underwhelming".
Q&A
"How did the bunnies get through the lock? I thought it was supposed to be secure?"
The lock was secure, but the door was not. From what I can gather, infiltrators from the Black Bunny Squad chewed up the area around the lock of the door, separating the lock from the door.
"What equipment was damaged?"
While the after-action report is still not finished, reports indicate that some precision equipment of value in excess of 20,000 carrots was likely damaged.
"What post-incident indications existed after the event?"
There wasn't anything that stood out.
I overheard some conversations to the extent of "If something even goes wrong with even one bunny, we'll hear about it." But it seemed like just random talk at the time. Bunny S did seem a bit stressed, but really there wasn't anything definitive post-incident.
"Is the Black Bunny Squad part of the Bunny Brigade?"
No, in fact, the Brigade makes special effort to ensure that it's members aren't affiliated with that group. They don't want bunnies with questionable loyalties.
"So why do bunnies tolerate the Black Bunny Squad?"
Despite it's dark nature, the Black Bunny Squad is accepted by most bunnies because of their past exploits, mainly in operations against the neighborhood cat gang. While it is true that the Bunny Brigade and the Black Bunny Squad have cooperated in operations in the past, the two have always been separate entities and should not be confused.
"Is it true the large black pig (the first pig's 'friend') was a member of the Black Bunny Squad?"
No.
"What happened once they realized what was going on?"
The bunnies, led by Bunny Y, launched their own attack to purge the infiltrators.
While the Black Bunny Squad is respected as a formidable fighting force, their fighters (numbering roughly 20) were drunk and also taken by surprise. From Bunny S -- "Quite simply, overwhelmed. None of them stood even half a chance."
There were no escapees. It should be noted that 3 allied bunnies also perished in the battle.
"Does Cat R have anything to do with this?"
I have no reason to believe he does. There was at least one Cat R sighting that was verified. But nothing to indicate foul play at this time. No reason to believe the neighborhood cat gang, or any of its minions, were involved.
---
Even if I did know, I wouldn't be talking about it here.
It's big, though. There have probably been minor clues leaking out but nothing that is definitive.
She can't keep a secret, it always gets out in due time.
I do believe that a very intelligent animal could put enough pieces together to get almost all the way there. But that would require a lot of persistence, patience, and it would still miss one last critical piece of information. And I don't know if there are animals out there that are that intelligent and also have a reason to do that. If there are, they certainly aren't in the neighborhood cat gang.
---
For the record, I do believe all the necessary clues are out there now, but again, there's probably no animal that is intelligent enough to put all the pieces together and make all the connections. So I think the danger level is low regardless, not to mention the many traps, security, and bunnies that they'd have to get through even once...
---
I don't get it either. Cowards, each and every one of them.
The risks are ever-present for bunnies and other small animals, despite being weakened, the neighborhood cat gang and others like it still pose a threat. It is a fact that bunnies and other small animals continue to perish every day at the hands of organized (or disorganized) gangs like this, but you don't see bunnies saying they will do things and then bugging out at the last minute (unless that itself is a ruse). When I see people doing those types of things, then it is natural that they fail. Just as humility is important, so is the audacity to act in the face of danger. For danger is ever present.

A very questionable person to begin with. But, for someone who is used to the periphery, it is also regrettable.
I don't know what the significance is, in fact I doubt there is any. But it was starting to get big, in some cases as many as 1000. And the establishment faction of the gang will sometimes tolerate dissent if it is just one person of a small group over a limited time. But if that dissent grows beyond a small group, or lasts a long time, they will attack it with everything they have. The internal struggle that follows is often quick and brutal, much more so than the external conflicts from the gang.

Yes, it is; but no, it's nothing special to me.
Just normal, normal action. It's not unusual.

To me, it is pointless. It is pointless to fight a wave when all you need to do is ride the wave. What is mean is, there are good things in the world and there are bad things in the world. Why do bad things exist? Perhaps providence[1] allows it, or ignores it, or has no control, or perhaps they are not really bad, or perhaps they are artifacts of man, or something else. I do not know, other than it is the world we live in.
But if one can see or recognize the changes that heaven exerts upon the world over time, and that this change is too what one desires, than one simply needs to ride the wave of heaven's influence rather than trying to run ahead of the wave or even fight the wave.
That is why I have said from the beginning, it is not worth the effort. It is not worth the effort to fight a battle that is already won (in time), one that can be won without expending effort.
Some may say "but you are fighting it", and if it seems that way, it is not something I think about or plan. It is just riding the wave.

What I mean is that, a hikikomori will have different types of nightmares, for instance a common person will have nightmares about public exposure or falling or carnal threats (animal, threatening person, etc.); a hikikomori will have nightmares about threats that could actually happen to them in their lifestyle, like being trapped and burning to death in a house fire, being denied internet, or being forced out and left homeless.

I'm sorry but this is the type of message/idea that takes people who are meaningless, and programs or media that are the same, assumes they are meaningful, and tries to draw conclusions from that. True power is wielded from the shadows, the truly powerful appear out of nowhere, do what they do, and then disappear back into the nothingness. Anyone with true power understands this, for instance 司马懿 concealed himself for in the shadows for 10 years, only revealing his presence at the opportune moment. And then he chose to stay out of the spotlight, kept his goals secret, and acted directly only when he had to in order to achieve his goals. Extremely telling is the fact that the message gives very little actual evidence or anything of substance to support its assertions, it just says it outright and then leaves it at that.

It is odd, slightly unnerving, but I will not make it a formal prediction yet. My problem is, the exact meaning is often unclear. Or more, the meaning is clear, but the timing is not. Is it based on something that already happened, or based on something that is yet to happen? In this case, it could be either, and there is no way at this time to tell which it is.
---
This is intended. Irl I can't stand it when people do that, and it's something I always do my best to avoid myself.
And I don't deal with organizations, only people. It just doesn't offer any benefit.
Already, ninety percent of the time, I can do what I want, and I can get what I want.
So why would it benefit me to be part of an organization? The only way that makes sense is if they can provide me with a unit, or if they can provide intelligence or situational awareness.
Without that, what is the point?
---
It matters, but nowhere near as much as some people believe it does.
That's about all I can say. A factor, but not an overpowering or important one.
---
It has to do with a particular advanced 3-series that was passed around and sometimes misused for the last 20-or-so years.
To small animals, something like this isn't considered 'odd', 'unusual', or anything like that. It's rather normal, or more, small animals have a different sense of what 'normal' is.
I know the quality of the video was pretty poor, but hopefully, this at least demonstrates why the small animals fell intent on defending the HVA and today have even attracted a few of the rebel cats to their side.
---
I'm not aware that they have ever done that.
The force complement has always been this way, at least, as long as small animals have been keeping track --
roughly 1:10 regular vs. irregular.
Around 4000 irregular small animals.
Around 400 regulars, mostly small animals, but also a few rebel cats, and one bear.
Around 150 non-categorized, primarily specialists, mostly small animals.
In terms of parity, this is nearly 40-50% current parity with the neighborhood cat gang (standing forces numbering around 900 cats).

I can't say anything b'cos, I just don't have enough information to draw any kind of conclusions.
Heaven decides success or failure, the organization exists only to catch those in case they fall down.
And for basic purposes like guard duty.
Words like right, wrong, good, evil, etc. don't mean anything to small animals. Only survival does, this is why a HVA is classified as such. And that is why, they will fight to the death to protect a HVA.
---
I don't approve of it.
I may seem amoral, but in truth I just don't care what people say or what they believe. Action is the only thing I care about.
So when they attack her b'cos she expressed a belief, that's when they lose me.
---
Nothing of that sort.
Look at the fundamentals, despite the glamorization, it's a job where even those at the top work for 16 hours a day, and might end up making 240,000 carrots per annum, and survivability is (on average) [6 months, in human terms] [1]. I'm sure he just realized that, he was starting to peak despite working very hard, and thinking of where he'd be in a year or two.
[1] The top tier might be able to survive longer, ie. 2 years, but this is rare. You have better chances if you worked for the neighborhood cat gang.
---
Yes, I will be there, and prepared...
---
I don't think it was presented as an honest conspiracy theory, more just a joke since he'd have no reason to do that irl.
Conspiracy theories aren't popular with small animals at all. I mean, for small animals, death is ever present, and life always hangs by a narrow thread.

As for Cat R, yes he is back. He appeared one day, and Cat P had no choice but to 'accept his help'. He needs all the cats he can muster for defense alone.
Now, he's trying to get his old team back together. But, that cat is old, not in the shape he used to be in, and his (bad) reputation preceeds him. We'll see how this goes over, b'cos all the gang can do now is defend what is left.
