Proto-Permic
Etymology
Probably borrowed from Bulgar [Term?], ulitmately from Proto-Turkic *keči (“goat”). Compare Chuvash кач (kač) and Tatar кәҗә (käcä).
The sense "goat" - which is only attested in Udmurt - is either the original meaning, from which the sense "hare" arose akin to dialectal Chuvash кач (kač), or a later semantic loan into Udmurt from a Turkic language.
Alternatively, Sokolov (1992) proposes that this term is an onomatopoeic formation independent from the Turkic terms.
