FREE TO LOVING HOME

Hagrid was attending his pets the day his letter to Hogwarts arrived. As he read it, his hands trembled and his eyes brimmed with joyful anticipation.

"I'm going to be a wizard!"

He knew he would have to find good homes for his animals before he left - there wouldn't be room for them in the dormitories. But it was the toughest thing he'd ever done.

Unfortunately, he'd been unable to find a proper home for his spider. No one wanted it. Fancy that.

"That's okay, Aragog," he murmured reassuringly, slipping it into his pocket. "You'll be my little secret."
