The Marauder's Map - Pottermore

Who needs a map? Not me.

Today, Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere when he decided to stop in at the Pottermore site. Everybody knows our kitty boy is a big Harry Potter fan, so he was doing the happy kitty dance when he found a new post by J.K. Rowling at the site.

What our fan kitty found was the story of The Marauder's Map by J.K. Rowling explaining the origin and creation by James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew. At the end of the post, Ms. Rowling gives her thoughts on the use of the map by Harry.

Panzer says, "All those shape shifters and not one smart enough to be a kitty."

Note: This is a l-o-n-g post. Bring two cups of tea, a muffin and two chocolate chip cookies (biscuits) for today's reading selection.

Harry Potter Fans Create the Severus Snape and The Marauders Movie - Galleycat

Panzer's trip today took him to one of his favorite sites, GalleyCAT. Just one little paw flick brought up a post about Harry Potter.

Whew! I need a nap after all that.

In the post by Maryann Yin, our intrepid kitty boy learned some interesting news about Harry Potter fans. The fan group at Broad Strokes Productions has put together a YouTube video called Severus Snape and The Mauraders. The video deals with Severus Snape and James Potter's time at Hogwarts. This is a well-done production. There are also several links included in the post to other GalleyCAT posts with Harry Potter information.

Panzer says, "I didn't embed the video here because it's almost 26 minutes long."

Note: This is a l-o-n-g video. You'll need a cup of tea, a muffin and a candy bar while you watch it. If you want to follow the links in the post too, bring a thermos of tea, a dozen muffins and a sleeping bag to take a nap in the middle of your watching and reading.
