For now, maybe. Ron's rodent Scabbers will continue to be a cute little accessory in Chamber of Secrets. But in book 3, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, we learn that there's much more to this sickly little rat than meets the eye. In truth, Scabbers is actually the transfigured form of Peter Pettigrew, an old Hogwarts chum of Harry's father. It was Pettigrew who betrayed James to Voldemort, a crime that was pinned on Sirius Black, Harry's godfather, who in book 3 escapes from the Azkaban prison to protect the younger Potter from Scabbers/Pettigrew's machinations. Got it?
