Another discussion point . . . (which I did raise on harrypotteranonymous)

Does anyone else wonder if Crookshanks is just a cat? I can't help but
wonder if Crookshanks is an animagus. I'm thinking specifically of the
scene in POA where Crookshanks jumps on Sirius Black's chest right at the
moment that Harry is seriously contemplating killing Black. No offense to
the cat lovers on the list, but cats aren't generally known for loyalty
(in fact they have a reputation for fickleness right?). It just struck
me as odd behavior for an ordinary cat. Crookshanks also seemed very
perceptive throughout POA.
