Yeah, I can affirm that crookshanks is part kneazle because he lives 
with me over the summer while Hermione is in muggle-land. In fact, 
before reading this quote, I just gave him some catnip.

Actually, I DO have a cat that looks like Crookshanks is described 
and I knick-named him Crookshanks, his real name is Oskar. he is 
indeed a very strange cat though.
