Thanks so much Lily. I stepped out for a minute; out into the big wide cyber world - pretty scary I can tell you!! and LOOK WHAT I FOUND:

Kneazle: XXX The Kneazle is a catlike creature with flecked, speckled, or spotted fur, outsize ears, and a tail like a lion's. The Kneazle is intelligent, independent, and occasionally aggressive, thought it could make an excellent pet. Kneazles have up to 8 kittens in a litter and can be bred with cats.


Found this at http://www.geocities.com/potterwands/kneazle.html (I'm not technogirl at all I'm afraid so I don't know how to make this a link sorry) Go to this site for more info. AND A PICTURE!!! Looks like a great site. I'd never meet it before.

Isn't it strange that Crookers didn't have much of a role in the movies? Where was Crooks when they went into the Shrieking Shack after Ron and Sirius in the movie? No sitting on Sirius's chest to protect him when Harry was going to hurt/kill him. Another eg. of the movie boiling all the characters- and character- of the books into thin vapour of their original.
