Cora mentioned working in a barn this year. “A barn?” she thought. “Is that for the Care of Magical Creatures class?” she asked. She had no idea what Cora would be helping with there either, but it sounded like fun. “Oh yes, I love animals too!” Eliza thought fondly of her pets back home. She missed them, but in time she’d see them again. “We have an owl at home. His name is Frederick. He’s really funny actually,” she laughed as she thought of him. “He gets a bit grumpy and starts strutting all over the house until we let him go outside.” she giggled again. “Oh, and I just got an owl of my own for school!” she had almost forgotten. She wasn’t used to having her very own owl. “Her name is Luna.” She was anxious to go see her soon. Maybe she’d write home about her classes. “We used to have a cat too, but she..." Eliza tightened her lips a little, suddenly sad. "Well, she passed away this year." she hadn't wanted to ruin the mood, but she couldn't really talk about Frederick without mentioning Kally now could she? It didn't feel right. "Anyway, do you have any pets?” she asked quickly, trying to avoid getting any sadder.

"Yes, I'm helping the Care of Magical Creatures professor with things. It just sort of...happened." Cora was very excited about this. "I can't wait to spend more time with animals."

Cora listened as Eliza talked about her pets. "OOh you have an owl?! My mom will NEVER let me get one." Disappointed for a moment, Cora regained excitement about Eliza's owl. "Luna's a wonderful name. I want to meet her!"

Cora saddened over Eliza's bad news. "I'm so sorry to hear that, Eliza." Cora gave her a quick hug. "I actually have a kitten. Well, he's not quite a kitten anymore, but he's still just a white ball of fur. I named him Teacup, since when I first got him he was small enough that one day, he plopped into an empty teacup." Cora laughed at the memory. "You can meet him sometime. He must be wandering around here somewhere. He doesn't like large crowds or noises, though," like me "so he may be hiding somewhere quiet.

"Are you considering getting any more pets?" Cora asked curiously.
