- Harry Potter: "Who keeps a mousetrap in a handbag?"
- Neville Longbottom: "My Gran. Ever since she reached into her bag in 1947 and found a fanged gerbil in there."
- — Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom[src]
A fanged gerbil is, presumably, a gerbil with fangs. One of these found its way into Augusta Longbottom's handbag in 1947, after which time she kept a mousetrap in the bag at all times.
