Thanks everyone i'm really worried now- my other half things by moving the bags of rabbit waste from next to the house it will get rid of them.
It was out in broad daylight- i saw it twice and it was massive!.
I am seriously concerned about the bunnies.
I wonder if it is living in the coal shed? What conditions do rats like? There is plenty of hay about for nesting as even once clean there are stray bits that remain.
The neighbors have a feral cat to hunt rats and i have seen a cat round here, but the rat is huge- i wouldn't think a cat would take it on.
It must have been about 7am or 8am i saw this rat. I can see it can get in off the farm or countryside through the bottom of our gates and god only knows how many rats there are in the countryside. We are in the heart of it.
I have a double door so the rat would only be able to get into my porch if it tried to come in. I'm going to go investigate with my wellys on.
I do have a puppy yes, but i'm more worried for her safety than that she would scare the rat away.
I wonder if i got a broom and shuffled around under things- especially the hutches, i could establish if there is any rat there. I Will have to get the buns out of the nearby hutches.
Can't believe this is happening- i wouldn't want to kill it either.
