Yes Absolutely I wonder.  And she seems to have an odd association 
with Perkins who works with Mr. Weasley. It is Perkins who lends the 
tent to Mr. Weasley that --oh so oddly--looks like Mrs. Figg's flat 
and smells like cats.

And speaking of Perkins--isn't it odd that Professor Binns calls 
Harry //Perkins// in Chapter 17 OOtP, when Hedwig comes to the 
window.  P. 357 Scholastic. Odd how this minor character keeps poppy 
up.

And on this subject, why can't Mrs. Figg see dementors?  She's not 
all that convincing in the Ministry hearing. And Squibs ARE supposed 
to be able to see dementors.

Yeah, better keep an eye on Figgy. (I hope you have a hundred eyes 
becuz there's so many odd characters to keep eyes on. )
