Title: Somebody Cursed a Cat

A sleeping Crookshanks imitating a fat fluffy pincushion was oblivious to the drama.

Surrounded by her disconcerted roommates Hermione yelled, "reparo", fixing the linens good as new. "As for that mess, well I suspect those mice and roaches were living in your wardrobes," stated Hermione enjoying their shivering cringes of revulsion.

Lavender fumed, her voice pitched with warning. "If there are any more problems I am going to McGonagall. I overheard house elves saying someone cursed a cat when Ron and I left the kitchens." She added less vehemently, "Look, maybe Snape can help, and don't get anymore points deducted."
