I just finished reading PS again and am about to start on CoS when I 
go to bed tonight, but...

I don't even remember Trevor being mentioned in the later books. 
Perhaps he decided it was safer after PS and left Trevor at home with 
his Gran? He may have had it in CoS (i'll find that out tonight), but 
I cannot remember for the life of me hearing about it in PoA or 
GoF... and if course he got his precious Mimbulus Mimbletonia in OotP 
so I doubt he'd care about Trevor then....

Good point, I'll let you know tomorrow :)
