1.  Why does Scabbers try to escape from Ron before the Trio even 
leaves Hagrid's?  Wasn't he trying to escape the entire time.  He knew he was no longer safe with Ron, eventually Sirius would catch up with him.  
2.  JKR has said that Crookshanks is part Kneazle.  Kneazles make 
excellent pets if they take a liking to someone.  Why has Crookshanks 
formed an apparent attachment to Sirius?  Um he has lived the 12 (or about that) years in Azkaben...no real contact with outside world.  Since his escape he has lived as a dog *still no real human contact atleast*  I'm sure he needed someone to talk to.  
3.  What stopped Harry from killing Sirius?  Paternal love...does that make sense?  James would have never killed Sirius and I believe there was a part of James that was telling Harry not to go there.  I definitely think that in his heart Harry wanted to believe Sirius and Lupin, I mean who wants to believe that they were betrayed by their best friend.   And atleast a part of him still trusted Lupin to some degree.   
4.  Why is there a magnificent bed in the Shrieking Shack, when 
everything else in the building is stained and broken?  Lupin wanted a nice bed for when he was there...LOL...
5.  Should Remus have told Harry earlier in the school year about his 
true relationship with James?  I don't know.  It really wasn't neccessary for Harry to know at that point.  He was trying to keep everything out of his mind.  Especially his friendship with Sirius.

Marianne, off to feed the part-Kneazles that are screaming around her 
feet.
