In ‘Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,’ Mrs. Figg threatens to kill Mundungus Fletcher after he sells her cat, Mr. Tibbles. This action infuriates her, as she was fond of her pets and valued them highly. Mundungus’s disregard for her feelings and his involvement in such shady dealings exemplify his character as a rather unscrupulous individual. He often finds himself in questionable situations, and this particular incident reveals how much he is willing to exploit others, even someone like Mrs. Figg who is supposed to be on his side. This moment not only adds to the depth of Mrs. Figg’s character but also highlights the chaotic underbelly of the wizarding world that Harry becomes more aware of throughout the series.
