According to The Irish Sun, the rat is now being cared for by the Wildlife Unit at the Kildare Animal Foundation. He has been nicknamed "Swampy".
If you're already fearing the reign of the rat overlords though, relax. Speaking to The Irish Sun Dan Donoher said: "It must have escaped or been released into the wild because ordinarily they would not be found here.
"It's the first one of its kind that anyone here has heard of."
The organisation is currently looking for a home for the rat. Any takers?
