do werewolves count as transfiguration?  Also, is Professor Lupin's 
brother Remus a werewolf too? 

Two things.
First: I wouldn't have thought that Lupin counts as an animgus. He was bitten by a werewolf and became one. It sounds more like a kind of illness to me (although obviously not the same) and also does not involve the same spells/magic etc as the animagus transformation (we presume) does.

Second: How do we know Lupin has a Brother? I have not seen any mention of this. Ok so Remus had a brother in the roman myth but that doesn't mean that JK is going to give Lupin a brother. personally I think that would be as tacky as being introduced to any more animagi but there you go.

HOLLYDAZE!!!
