Who are Spike's Kittens?
Spike's Kittens are a bunch of loopy Spike fans who have banded together to share and spread their love for the handsome vampire.

Reason behind the name:
Well, we all know Spike likes kittens (or at least likes to gamble for them) and we'd all love to be his "Pet". So that's pretty much how we came up with the name.

Reasons Why James is Our Master:
1) What's the ultimate reason? you pick!
2) He has presence.
3) He is a good actor
4) He is charming
5) He's very intellegent
6) He's extremely sexy
7) He's funny
8) He has a great personality
9) He's got a fantastic accent.
10) Have you seen him naked yet?

If you've thought of any reason we don't already have then please let us know and we'll add them.


RULES:
Bashing of Spike, or the actor who portrays, is not allowed. If you don't like them then why bother coming into our domain?
If you would like to post a “risqu锟picture then please, only post the link. We wouldn't want to get in trouble with our moderator would we?

But as mentioned above, this thread isnt only about him. It is about all and everything we love to talk about!

There is the Trace for instance. It was clearly established in the earlier books that it could not tell who was doing magic, just that magic was being performed near an underage wizard. But then Harry gets worried that his Trace will give away his position? Even if he still had it, how could the Ministry know that the magic was his, and not just any other underage wizard?

And then it irks me that Summoning hair for a polyjuice potion is that easy. (they did it to disguise Harry for Bill's wedding) If that actualy worked, why do they usually go through so much trouble to get it?
