This is from SS but it has been nawing at my brain ever since I reread it.

If owls, cats, and toads are the only approved animals at Hogwarts,
how can Ron have Scabbers there? I know Percy had Scabbers first, but
that still doesn't explain it.

(of course, taking Scabbers out would completely change the rest of the
books, but that doesn't matter right now! We are talking about my sanity!)
