鈥淒idn't you ever hear, Ron?鈥�said Lupin. 鈥淭he biggest bit of Peter they found was his finger.鈥�
鈥淟ook, Scabbers probably had a fight with another rat or something! He's been in my family for ages, right 鈥斺�

鈥淲e 鈥�we've been taking good care of him!鈥�said Ron.
鈥淣ot looking too good at the moment, though, is he?鈥�said Lupin. 鈥淚'd guess he's been losing weight ever since he heard Sirius was on the loose again鈥�鈥�
鈥淗e's been scared of that mad cat!鈥�said Ron, nodding toward Crookshanks, who was still purring on the bed.
