Physical Description
Mrs. Norris is a scrawny dust-colored cat with bulging lamp-like yellow eyes that glow eerily in the dark. Her thin, mangy fur clings to a skeletal frame, and her long tail twitches with perpetual suspicion. She moves with stealthy grace through stone halls, exuding a watchful, menacing feline presence. A scrawny ginger tabby cat of skeletal thinness, her patchy fur clinging to prominent bones and ribs. Lamp-like yellow eyes dominate her narrow face, glowing with piercing intensity amid twitching whiskers. She moves with a prowling, emaciated grace, tail lashing in perpetual suspicion. Her presence is one of unblinking vigilance, fur bristling at the slightest irregularity.
