My cat took one look at the computer screen and skedaddled sharpish. I think this beast probably eats cats for breakfast with a warfarin chaser and then goes on its merry way (or did till the industrial strength Little Nipper did for it.) I imagine that the Lancaster pistol would do the job here.
Good Grief, I've never seen one as big as that before. (Someone had to say it).
Rat traps won't do anymore; guess landmines are the way to go! :(
(Then again; imagine how much food they must have spilled behind the fridge for the rats to get this big :-\)
Cheers,

In Nigeria they have some rats of similar size (and I'm not taling about the 'Bushrats' that are different but feckin' huge). They are so big you have to fix the rat traps to the floor, ground etc, otherwise they take them with them when caught (their necks do not always get broken). I once saw one climb up a wall with rat trap in tow...:o.

Jealousy is a poison to the soul, white man.
Perhaps the last thing this Swedish rodent heard as it died was 'SQUEAK!'
Surely, more likeSQUEAK !! ;)

No matter how big a rat you are, beware of rodents bearing scythes. :d

lol......10mm frustration....need new glasses.................
Ah.....The Grim Squeaker.
I'm hoping he'll be making a few visits to Techno Towers soon. ;)
Biggest rat I've ever seen on 'the farm' must have been about half the size of Swedish beastie (if that)......and that looked sodding enormous.
He died of lead poisoning.

Used to see HUGE rats round Merton Abbey Mills all the time when we lived there about a decade ago. I seem to recall cars stopping to let one cross the road on one occasion!! :o
Never got close enough to measure though ;)
Bloody hell, were they rats or sheep?!
QuoteIn February, scientists from the University of Leicester claimed that rats could eventually grow to the size of sheep as they adapt to take advantage of larger mammals becoming extinct.
Were they talking about us?
Sheep nest in trees, so only if up a tree are those rats sheep.

Pleasant to report that we've got rid of our ruler over here. If only we had anyone better to replace her!
Still haven't seen any of those 'mega rats' X_X :-SS.....But here on 'the farm', the snap traps are working overtime. ~X( #:-S.. and I seem to be getting through an awful lot of peanut butter as bait. >:( >:( >:( >:(.....Wretched things !

That reminds me of a very old joke
Two men are talking in the pub.
First man:- When I got home last night my wife was really frisky she said " Give me six inches and make it hurt"
Second Man:- What did you do?
First man:- I Sh*gged her twice and punched her in the mouth "
Sorry - I have my coat and I'm leaving now ;D
X_X X_X X_X
