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

mmm rose flavoured bunny pie that does sound good thanks!
chinchillas have longer tails.

So rabbit with deformed ears (GillyGee says it really looks that way, not just the photo), or chinchilla with deformed tail. Maybe a rabbitilla.

No I think it is more guinea rabbit, bunny pig or perhaps a squirrabit whatever it is I never thought I would generate so much interest..........x
I'm very surprised that no-one seems to have suggested that it's one of these...

Okay, it's definitely a baby rabbit that either: has to go on a diet- it's just chubby for it's age; or: has deformed ears.
