Errrrr, kill it? We found a rat in our outside drain one day and it was the size of a big cat. It had drowned thank God but I couldn't get over how big and fugly it was. I can't imagine what I would do if Iwere to wake up and find that trotting about my bedroom. Or, worse still, with it's wee face on the pillow next to mine, nose and snout touching... Dear God, I think I am having a panic attack.
