Cats.

They're all over the place, and it seems to me that there is something 
more to them.  The two people in the series who have cats and are 
completely devoted to them are Mrs. Figg and Argus Filch.

Squibs.

Godric Gryffindor is the founder of Gryffindor House, which has as it's 
symbol the Lion.  We are led to believe that Godric Gryffindor was the 
champion for the underdogs--non-Purebloods and the like.

What if....Just thinking aloud here.....

1.  Cats are somehow empowered in the WW to serve as guardians for 
Squibs since they are basically handicapped by being forced to live 
"between worlds"

2.  Crookshanks seeks Hermione out to be Hermione's protector since he 
has Feline Blood and can sense that there is danger ahead with the war 
going on.

I just can't believe that with the great mythology surrounding cats 
that there isn't more to do with them in the upcoming 
books---especially with the Felix Felicitis chapter.....

I apologize that these theories are half-formed.  Anyone have any 
thoughts?
