Not sure to be honest. Didn't catch their name at the time.
They were little rodent looking mammals about the size of a cat.

Looks a little like a Mara, but hard to tell. If it is, it's a young one.

No, it's not the Mara. I got some photos of those there too:

* piggo . com /~troy/photos.php?album=2008_03_28&img=photos/2008_03_28/img_6653.jpg

Here's a full body shot of the original critter if you're
interested:

More importantly, how is it for the animals? That one, at least, looks healthy

I might think he was a prairie dog. Some specialized Australian varmint,
perhaps?
