Add me to the list that would have Kreachers head as a door stop for
the kitchen door and a nice big tea tray mounted to his neck and
shoulders to form a nice table for a corner of the drawing room. :-)
I'd also have Winky carted off to St Mungo's pet ward for some long
term care. (Apologies to Neville)
My verdict on Kreacher only comes after he betrayed the order.
Before then I'd have done my best to make friends with him.
