Peppergrass
Indian Grey Mongoose

Herpestes edwardsii
I have a pair of these guys living in the garden. They tend to have quite a lot of spats with the dogs. Luckily no one from either party has ever been injured. Also known as the Common Grey Mongoose, this creature possess a greyish coat of fur and has a tawny, yellowish grey underside. Feet and tail tip and head are a dark shade of red. Tail length is equal to the legnth of the body.
