* IronicName: Quickrunner's name is given for his inability to live up to it.
* LovableRogue: Sharpnose the water rat, who is cold and cynical, but the pair grow fond of him as he takes them through the swamp.
* PunnyName: Some. For example, Siika the jay (Bulgarian for jay is "soika").
* SlidingScaleOfAnimalAntropomorphism: All characters are wild animals, with humans only receiving an occasional mention. Being a child-oriented novel, however, all animals have human-like personalities and relationships.
* SoftWater: The two are kidnapped by an eagle and dropped from a height that's equivalent to a helicopter flight, into a swamp. The impact merely dazes them.

* {{Xenofiction}}: Written entirely through the perspective of the two animals.
