Nutria?
I saw a nutria in our backyard yesterday. Or a muskrat, or some sort of large rodent. I looked out the back door to see a furry body which looked like a cat's back in the grass. The face was clearly *not* feline, and neither was the tail. S/he was happily munching the overgrown grass. When we went outside, s/he scuttled under the blackberry bushes and I haven't seen her/him since.

Probably has a nest under the house or something. As long as s/he's not nibbling the house, I think we have a win/win situation: nutria gets a safe place to live, we get free lawn trimming.
