Introduction[]

“Puffskeins are magical creatures that were first breifly introduced in the Harry Potter books when the main characters are looking at pygmy puffs (miniature puffskeins) at "Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes."

Later, in the Fantastic Beast films, the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to find Them written by Newt Scamander, we learn more about the puffskein. A Puffskein is a beloved pet in families with young children because they enjoy endless cuddles and the Puffskeins have zero objection to being played with and tossed around. They have a lengthy tongue which they use at night to reach up into a wizards nose, eating their bogies.

From the Book[]

Newt Scamander- "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"[]

“A docile creature found around the world."


"From time to time a very long, thin tongue will emerge from the depths of the Puffskein and snake through the house searching for food"
