We are introduced to Pygmy Puffs in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince when Ginny Weasley buys one from Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. Ginny names her Pygmy Puff "Arnold", and is seen with it a few times in that year.
The Weasley twins bred Pygmy Puffs, a new multicoloured breed that became incredibly popular. Ginny Weasley even came home with one that she named Arnold.
A Pygmy Puff was a miniature Puffskein, bred by Fred and George Weasley and sold at their shop Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes at 93 Diagon Alley in London, as one of the known products in the WonderWitch range.
Fred and George Weasley breed the pygmy puffs to sell at their Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes shop. Their fluffy fur ranges in shades of pink and purple. There's a very brief moment in the Half-Blood Prince when we meet Ginny's pet pygmy puff named Arnold.
Ginny Weasley's Pygmy Puff, Arnold was brightly coloured, pocket sized and delightfully fluffy. Bought from the Weasley twins' Diagon Alley shop, Arnold accompanied Ginny to Hogwarts and enjoyed riding around on her shoulder.
What is Luna Lovegood's pet? We never saw Luna with a familiar, or bound animal companion, even though one was allowed at enrollment. Hogwarts' acceptance letter limited such familiars to a cat, toad, owl, or rat, so Luna would have been limited to bringing one of these four, had she brought one.
Scabbers was Ron Weasley's pet rat. Passed down throughout the family, by the time he came to Ron, Scabbers was living up to his name with patchy fur and a distinct preference for sleeping.
Puffskeins come in many forms, from standard 'custard-colour' to the American Appaloosa, but best of all had to be Ginny Weasley's purple Pygmy Puff, a modified Puffskein bred by Fred and George. Wouldn't you love to have that little guy riding around on your shoulder?
We've seen students with a crow, ferret (Albus Potter), rat (Ron), half-kneazle (Hermione), Puffskeins/Pygmy Puffs so clearly other pets are allowed at Hogwarts besides the main three.
Arnold was purchased from Ginny's brothers Fred and George Weasley at their shop in August of 1996. Arnold was transported in a cage during the car ride from The Burrow to King's Cross Station on 1 September 1996. In the Gryffindor common room in Hogwarts he was seen playing with Ginny or riding her shoulder.
Ginny: "You'd think people had better things to gossip about. Three Dementor attacks in a week, and all Romilda Vane does is ask me if it's true you've got a Hippogriff tattooed across your chest." Ron and Hermione both roared with laughter. Harry ignored them.
Sold by Fred and George in Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes, Pygmy Puffs are miniature puffskeins, “round balls of fluff in shades of pink and purple,” that sell so quickly they “can't breed them fast enough” (HBP6). Ginny convinced her mother to buy one for her, and she named it Arnold.
Puffskeins are popular pets, particularly among younger children and teens. Not only are they cute, as most would want from a pet, but they also are much easier to take care of than most traditional pets. This is for quite a few reasons. The first being that the beasts find their own food.
The most famous Pygmy Puff would probably be Arnold, who belongs to Ginny Weasley. Arnold can be seen in the sixth film upon Ginny's shoulder on the Hogwarts express. According to Luna Lovegood...they are known to sing on boxing day.
After Harry Potter's final installment, the young hero married Ginny Weasley. The couple had three children whose names were divisive at best: James Sirius, Lily Luna, and the most controversial, Albus Severus.
Pigwidgeon, or Pig, a Scops owl, was a gift from Sirius Black to Ron. Ron's sister, Ginny, named the owl. The owl refused to answer to anything else after that.
Struggling with anxiety and depression, Ginny confides in her father, Zion, that she is self-harming. Careful consideration was taken to not romanticise this behaviour; portraying maladaptive coping mechanisms, like self-harm, is a potential trigger to audience members.
Throughout the show, Ginny blames herself for her mother's double life, and without anyone to turn to, she struggles with self-harm. While most people don't deal with homicidal mothers, experts say, it is common to feel an overwhelming sense of betrayal and trauma when someone we feel safe around, is in fact, not.
Through flashbacks, we learned that Georgia married Kenny (Darryl Scheelar) after he got divorced, so he was Ginny and Austin's stepfather back in the day. While Georgia was observing Kenny and Ginny doing yoga together one day, he saw Kenny go to help Ginny with her form and inappropriately touch her.
Scabbers was the pet of Ron Weasley in the first three instalments of the series. He originally belonged to Ron's brother, Percy, but when Percy was given an owl as a reward for becoming a prefect, Scabbers was handed down to Ron.
Lavender was very affectionate with, and possessive of, Ron, adopting the name of "Won-Won" for him and sending him a necklace for Christmas saying "My Sweetheart" on it, which he greatly disliked and was shocked that she would think it was to his taste.
In the second book of the Harry Potter series, The Chamber of Secrets, the audience becomes aware of the fact Ron is incredibly afraid of spiders. The being around them scares him immensely and the mere idea of spiders turns him into the world's biggest baby.
