“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic." —Albus Dumbledore
Maddie Topliff is a Petcare Hub intern and a senior at Drake University studying public relations, Spanish and advertising, but perhaps most importantly, she is sister to her human brother Ben and her two fur baby brothers Chip the cockapoo and Doug the pug. Maddie also works as an intern at Principal Financial Corporation and has a year of ad agency experience under her belt, too. Writing for Petcare Hub has been absolutely paw-some, and Maddie feels lucky to be a contributor!
Magical creatures make the Harry Potter series memorable—that's just a fact. From hippogriffs, to dragons, to werewolves, there are plenty of fantastic beasts to learn about. But we can't forget about our trusty feline friends, either, like McGonagall in her Animagus form or Crookshanks and his shenanigans. Cats are definitely an integral part of the Harry Potter universe. And if you're a cat owner, you probably think your feline is The Chosen One, just like our friend Harry Potter. So, don't you think your new kitty deserves a cat name inspired by the original hero of the Wizarding World? Us, too.
