Thanks for the day/date correction - my brain was clearly feeling deadline stress and lack of sleep yesterday - obviously, I even missed the robusta pun!
Robyn I think that donating is a great idea but seeing as there are limited numbers of free rata it might be worth leaving yours for the next punter to claim. Though I'm told they're very hardy so maybe keep it on a balcony in a big pot for a while if you're able to, then give it to someone's backyard?
