We've now seen at least 3 examples of people existing long-term as animals...two were animagi (Sirius and Peter) and the other is Rita Skeeter.  So people can become animals two ways...by changing themselves or being changed against their wills.  

I'm really interested to learn the history of Crookshanks, who seems to be much more than a cat.  I suspect he may turn out to be an enchanted wizard.

Don't I have a fertile imagination!
