Hmm.
There're so many fascinating details about the WW that JKR doesn't tell us.
Can't think why.
It's reasonable to assume that a toddler would transform into a werecub.
Fluffy little thing with small, sharp teeth.
Unlikely to be house-trained, so the first thing you do is roll up the rugs.
Then put out the cat. Remove silver-ware from dining table (don't want
a nasty accident, now do we?) and don protective gear as a precaution.
Place cub in re-inforced play-pen with wire mesh top, remembering to
add a plaything or two to keep him occupied and happy. Hamsters and
rabbits come highly recommended. If he looks peaky stuff pieces of meat
with worming tablets and poke them between the bars with a pair of long
tongs. Unless the parent is also lycanthropic resist temptation to play
games such as *Snap* and Hunt the Bloodvessel, though "I spy with my
little eye - something beginning with M" is appropriate since it'll give
you an indication of how soon he'll be back in human form.
Remember, it's only once a month and these memories of your offspring's
childhood activities are so precious; don't you agree?
