What evolutionary factors could evolve a species which looks like a hybrid between bunny and octopus?

+0
−0

I am creating a race of aliens that are amphibious and mammalian in detail, they have six tentacles, bunny ears and also fur covering their bodies. They are about 3-4 ft in length, if this species evolved naturally on a habitable planet, what evolutionary factors might make my species a real possibility? would it even be possible for a species to have amphibious and mammalian traits?

They build their homes by the seashore and prefer wet environments and they breathe oxygen. I'm not sure if it is possible to have them be able to breathe underwater too and still have all those traits. They should be able to use their tentacles for locomotion. I think their noses will probably be like two small holes or maybe something different could work?
