Strange creature in our garden?

[GillyGee]

It is the same size as a baby rabbit and is the colour of a wild rabbit with a darker brown stripe down its back, it also has a bobtail. BUT it has tiny ears like a hamster/ guinea pig and doesn't hop but runs like a rat. It feeds on rose petals and clover in the lawn and appears about 2 or 3 times a day. No I haven't imagined it as I have a photo of it which i am happy to share. It's quite cute but is a bit of a mystery

Sounds like a chipmonk??? An escaped pet???

Do share the photo, probably the best way to get answers.

[GillyGee]

No they are the older and are more like the Dingles - unfortunately.

[GillyGee]

Happy to share the photo how do I upload onto this site?

[~Wingnut~]

You need to go to a site like Tinypic, upload it there and then share the link here :o)

looks like a baby rabbit , perhaps minus the big floppy ears.

Ooo er! Looks like a baby rabbit with wonky ears to me.
