How can I use live in a sentence?

Gallopin' Gorgons, that reminds me, said Hagrid, clapping a hand to his forehead with enough force to knock over a cart horse, and from yet another pocket inside his overcoat he pulled an owl — a real, live, rather ruffled-looking owl — a long quill, and a roll of parchment.

Harry pulled a wizard cracker with Fred and it did not just bang, it went off with a blast like a cannon and engulfed them all in a cloud of blue smoke, while from the inside exploded a rear admiral's hat and several live, white mice.

A thousand live bats fluttered from the walls and ceiling while a thousand more swooped over the tables in low black clouds, making the candles in the pumpkins stutter.

But I c-c-can not stand it — Lily an' James dead — an' poor little Harry off ter live with Muggles.

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that.
