Remember, Crookshanks could have told Sirius everything he needed to 
know to find the Gryffindor tower and even the location of Ron's 
bed.  When Sirius enters the Gryffindor sleeping quarters, he knows 
precisely which of five beds to attack.  That is undoubtedly due to 
the assistance he had from Crookshanks.

I think it makes sense that MWPP are all in Gryffindor, but I think 
we can only be sure about James.
