I'm sure Hermione would have registered Crookshanks, had she known he was 
half-Kneazle, but I'm equally sure that, in that case, his behaviour towards 
Scabbers would have made her suspicious, and I can't see her holding back 
this information.  So, I conclude she does *not* know Crookshanks is not an 
ordinary (therefore, of course, extraordinary) cat.
