Range of Virginia Opossum. As far as I know, there are no opossums in Sweden.

Opossums have white fur on their faces, generally. And there aren’t any opossums living in Sweden FWICS. The brown rat, Rattus norvegicus, can reach 18 inches in length though.

PS. There is also one venomous snake species in Sweden, the common European adder (Vipera berus). Those can get into houses very easily through holes made by a rat that size.

They sure that isn’t an opossum? It could be a nutria/coypu..Without seeing the front feet, it's hard to tell.

They sure that isn’t an opossum?No, Ma'am, I will concede that the body looks somewhat similar, the face does not. Take if from someone who, with Grandpa, was a Master Hunter of possums in his youth.
