It says that the polyjuice potion is to be used on human transformation only, meaning turning yourself into another human. I think that if you would put in a hair from a normal animal like a cat, dog, or owl, then you would turn into a half human, half cat, dog, owl or whatever, like what happened to Hermione. I don't know what would if you did with a centaur because they are a magical creature. They might have protection, but because they are part human, then it is possible that you could turn into a centaur because they have human blood in them. I think that the potion is supposed to be used with creatures that have human blood, so if anyone tried with something that isn't necessarily human or part human, then something weird would happen like what happened to Hermione in CoS. That's what I think.

Gina: The question wasn't just would the potion work.
ScottieBears MiaKitty Would something freaky happen with the transformation?
Since you have proven that it wouldn't work, what would happen? When you drink a polyjuice potion with non-human hair in it, the effect of the potion isn't negated just because it's not a human you're trying to become. This is, again, made obvious by Hermione's transformation. So, if the potion doesn't work properly with a semi-human creature's DNA, what would the side effects be? If someone were trying to become Hagrid, what would happen? What about a centaur?
With Hagrid, or even a full giant, I think that it would be something along the lines of some of your body getting larger. But the centaurs and other semi-animal creatures raise a fairly good question. I mean, Hermione became part cat when she drank it. So wouldn't a person drinking a potion with a centaur hair become some form of a centaur, even if not the centaur who's hair is in the potion? *cough* Join Dueling Club at the Haven *cough*
