Hamsters were not magical creatures.

Perhaps this was why Camilla was having a very, very difficult time finding any real information about hamster care. The Hogwarts library naturally catered to the subjects covered in wizarding education. Oh, there were some general books on the subject of mundane mammals, but nothing really specific. Camilla needed specific information. Care, feeding, maybe whether it was possible to neuter a hamster ... that kind of thing.

Instead, she found herself puzzling over a book entitled Small, Furry, and Eating of Young: The Insidious Relationship Between Hamsters and Latvians. It was ... full of exclamations. Many vehement exclamations. It did happen to contain a brief discussion of neutering, but not in relation to hamsters.

Camilla's eyes had gone very, very wide as she read. She knew it wasn't going to be any use, this book, but it was like the proverbial trainwreck. She just couldn't look away.

Well, Ron was on a mission. He was on a double mission, even! To find more about furries, and to help the stranger he had just met. The latter was easy, he did it all the time. And luckily, the helping Camilla bit would probably be helpful for him as well. She had access to a Computer Machine!

He waited in Gryffindor amicably, no longer feeling that shot of envy that he used endure when thinking of his former House. He didn't stay in Slytherin enough for it to cause any trouble for him, and he now had to admit that he projected a lot of his personal problems with Ginny or Harry or that bloody puppet onto his stay in Slytherin as a whole. A visit with a Muggle therapist in Vienna helped him realize that!

He smiled at Camilla as she spoke, and nodded enthusiastically. "I don't know the inner workings of cars, but I can still fly 'em. Just not on water though."

Ron watched over Camilla's shoulder, staring at the screen with complete attention. From the other Computer Machines he saw on his journey, or toplaps, they just touched a pad on the bottom half. He hadn't really seen that object which was connected to Camilla's computer with a funny looking rope before.

As she moved it around the desk, Ron anxiously warned her, "It's moving!" But then he quieted. He grew especially quiet when the music began, with images of the hamsters being shown, as well as brief introductions.

Ron's eyes were equally wide as he watched the scenes play out in Hamster Hotel. "I didn't know that Muggles had so many issues," he commented. His voice lowered into a whisper, as he hissed in excitement, "Or that they could talk to hamsters!"

After the commercials the show came back on air. "Baron von Duplicity approached Lulubelle with a deal. 'My dear girl, I believe I have you in a bind. Unless you properly accuse Spigglets of a cocaine addiction, I shall... out you, let's say, as our resident thief. Mwa ha. Mwa ha ha ha!' Damn Baron von Duplicity. Damn him and his social problems."
