Felifors Spell
Incantation	Felifors (FEE-li-forz)
Type	Transfiguration
Hand movement
Light	None
Effect	Turn a cat into a cauldron

The Felifors Spell (Felifors) was a transforming spell that turned cats into cauldrons. It was covered in Hogwarts' Transfiguration classes. If performed improperly, the cauldron can still have a tail.

History

During the 1986–1987 school year, the spell was taught to the third year students in Transfiguration class. Failed cauldron transfigurations were previously used by second year Transfiguration students to practise the Reparifarge spell on, during the 1985–1986 school year.

Etymology

From Latin "feles", meaning "cat" or "felinus", meaning "pertaining to cats", with the -fors suffix attached.

Behind the scenes

• The incantation is a misnomer, as it is indicative of a cat, but the spell transforms things into cauldrons, and not into cats. For example, Lapifors turns the target into a rabbit and Avifors the target into a bird. This might be a mistake from Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery developers, where the spell appears.
