"Yeh need ter be lettin' the creatures decide fer themselves," Hagrid cautioned the students who were hoping to be chosen by one of the Kneazle kittens he'd released into the enclosure. "A Kneazle innit ter be rushed when makin' a decision abou' which wizard er witch ter be bondin' with, yeh know."
Hagrid took out his handkerchief to dry his eyes and blow his nose. It was a happy day for the students and the baby Knealzes. He didn't want to be ruining it for the kids getting their new familiars. He could be sad over the babies leaving that night. Maybe he'd go down to the Hog's Head for a drink to drown his sorrows. Old Aberforth would understand. He was right attached to his goats. "Remember, until yeh have yer license from the Ministry o' Magic, yeh can't be taken yer Kneazle home. I reckon there be jus' enough time fer yeh ter git yer two Galleons and git ter the Ministry to apply before closin' if yer quick about it."
