Ever since reading PoA for the second time I have thorght that there 
may be a possibility that L+J are still alive. Now JKR has always 
said in the chats that 'magic cannot bring people back to life' and 
many people have interpreted this as L+J being dead and never coming 
back. But as fasr as I am aware (and correct me if I am wrong) JKR 
has never said that we will never see a living L+J, only implied it. 
Also, what or who is Crookshanks? He, she or it seems to be a very 
clever cat for hearing Ron talk about Scabbers and his whereabouts. 
Could there be a posability that Crookshanks is an anamagus? I mean 
JKR is very fond of the things (Pettigrew, Reta Skeeter). Now if he 
is, then who is he? Could it be Mrs Figg that I think we are all 
certain is the same as Arabella Figg or is there a posiability if 
Lily Potter? I doubt that James would have never told her that he is 
an anamagus and she may well have been interested and asked him to 
teach her how to do it.
Another reason for L+J still being alive is that during the Prior 
Incanem (or whatever) James came out of the wand before Lily. Now I 
don't think that JKR would have made a mistake that big if it is a 
mistake because when Harry sees that dementors he hears his dad 
saying to Lily 'It's him, you take Harry and I'll hold him off'. 
Harry never sees either his Mum or Dad get killed, only a flash of 
green light that must have created his scar. Anyway if they were 
killed then James would have been killed first and then Lily so they 
would have come out of the wand in reverse order.
I know that's a bit muddled but I hope you get the drift!
