I am not too sure local authorities in Ireland have rat exterminators
ready
to pounce at the citizens' request... though of course I might be wrong.
I propose to put rat traps - not poisoned ones, as I wish no harm on the
neighbours' cats - more the larger versions of what you get for mice.

So your neighours won't mind their cats getting broken legs or noses? :0)
