Known locally as the Cuttick (also spelled Cutto or Cuttoo), and sometimes called the Volo, Voldro, or Vole-mouse, this remarkable little creature is found on the Orkney Islands, off the northern coast of mainland Scotland. A subspecies of the common vole, the Orkney Vole is actually larger and heavier than its mainland relative — bigger than a mouse, with a rounded head and a relatively short tail — a distinct island form that has evolved in isolation over thousands of years, making it a beloved symbol of Orkney's remarkable natural heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis all-weather doormat features a second alternate Orkney Vole design alongside the word \u003cstrong\u003eHOME\u003c\/strong\u003e — a nature-proud welcome that holds up in any weather, on any doorstep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from heavy-duty woven polyester fibers with a linen look finish and UV-cured inks that keep the design vivid through sun, rain, and everything in between.
