Lezard might have left Turlough in chinchilla form permanently, were it not for one little problem.
Hagrid, guardian of the chinchilla now known as 'Dr. Pepper', had begun to talk about breeding the chinchilla to other chinchillas. Real chinchillas. That would be an insult to chinchillakind, and would utterly ruin the gene pool of chinchillas at Hogwarts. While he had no qualms about wholesale genocide where humans or elves were concerned, Lezard disliked the idea of culling baby chinchillas.
Turlough would have to be restored to his original form. For the children!
Trespassing in the groundskeepers' hut was not difficult for someone capable of dematerializing and rematerializing at will. The delay was imposed by the need to wait for Hagrid to leave the hut first. Lezard really did not wish to explain to Hagrid why Turlough had been a chinchilla.
The spell itself took little effort at all. Things wanted to take their natural form. Turlough's natural form happened to be that of a cranky redheaded alien. In the space of a few moments, that was the form he once again possessed.
Could Lezard vanish again before the groundskeeper got a choice few words in?
