  Let's say that at the last moment  one of the Longbottoms managed 
to transfigure the Horcrux into  Trevor. Trevor escaped or the 
toddler Neville somehow rescued him. Isn't Trevor somewhat old for a 
toad (or is he a frog?). And it would explain why Trevor/Voldermort 
is always trying to escape from Neville. I say Trevor is the Cup 
Horcrux.

Potioncat:
Well, I'm not sure, but I think Uncle Algie gave Trevor to Neville 
either after they determined he wasn't a Squib or just before he went 
off to Hogwarts, but not as a toddler.

Toads live around 30 years...at least Muggle toads do. Given all the 
talk about Trevor as a Horcrux, I wonder if Snape...erm...Professor 
Snape was testing that theory when he gave Neville's potion to the 
wee beastie?

> Another minor point. It seems to me a lot of peole say Alice is an 
Auror. Frank is an auror obviously, but isthere canon for Alice?  I 
don't recall.  

Potioncat:
I think, but would not swear on my books, that Frank was an Auror, 
but that we were never told Alice was.
