Hi,
Any idea what this unfortunate creature used to be?

Can you give a rough idea of the size?

Hi Catlady,
I've added in another photo with a ruler beside it. It's about 5cm long.
Thanks,
TM

My thought was rabbit by the way, but I'm not in the slightest bit sure.

I would say Rabbit as well - I think the dentition points towards rabbit rather than anything else

When you enlarge the second photo you can certainly see fur down the left side, but at the top on the right side, you can see what looks almost feathery type black? There is also the same on the ground by the mouth! Possibly is rabbit?

I think mine probably fell victim to my cat unfortunately.

It's either rabbit or rat but only young as it's adult teeth are coming through ready to push baby teeth out.
This isn't what you asked but it also has a tick in its nasal cavity.
