I see what you are saying, the way it is read seems
like they choose their animals...but, remember how
Sirius and Lupin were telling Harry how "stupid" they
were when they were young?  Like they really cared
what kind of animal they turned into, as long as they
could keep Lupin company--Sirius probably said it that
way because they were talking about leaving the
Shrieking Shack, and that is something they may *not*
have done if he and James had been smaller animals...
