Pet that hunts Rats

[TiberianSun371AlexW]

Is there a pet that will hunt rats? My arctic fox sometimes hunts on his own, but only once did he hunt a rat. The good news is that he prefers corpses around the map over my freezer stocks, so I can let him haul stuff there without the meals being eaten. The bad news is that he almost never kills a rat. And I'm really getting tired of having my pawns go on a manual hunting spree in the tundra just to kill the rats that keep getting into the home area. Someone said in A15, cats will actively hunt down rats. What about the unstable patch?

Around Sept 16 give or take a day. Ison fixed an issue that has been preventing cats from hunting rats. It also effected other animal having issues hunting. So I can confirm that cats in Steam Unstable will hunt rats, hares, squirrels etc. A lot of other smaller hunting animals should hunt rats too. I don't know if this change is still in effect as I have not played in a week.
