said it was rubbish but it was squealing at the same time because 
Fred and George were playing a prank. It went off again when Ron was 
tying it to Errol's leg and Ron wasn't supposed to use Ron. The next 
time it went off was on the Hogwarts Express. For a toy, it seems 
pretty accurate, but Harry tucks it away in his trunk.

But the question you must consider is this:  Was Scabbers (aka 
Pettigrew) in Ron's pocket at these times?  During the trip to 
Hogwarts he was.  It squealed once more in the boys' dormitory at 
Christmas and Scabbers was there too.  Therefore, I, for one, *do 
not* believe it is a toy.  It actually works.
