Hi Teri,
First, and I don't intend this badly so please don't take it that 
way. Crookshanks is a bloke. 

OK now thats out of the way, I agree that there is reason to 
speculate that he may be unregistered animagii.
JK has let nothing slip on that matter so we can speculate our little 
hearts out about it. ;-)
In case you have never come across it, in an online interview with JK 
Rowling an observant reader asked her is Crookshanks a Kneazle.
Thats a lion like large cat with above average intelligence, that you 
can find reference to in Fantastic Beasts and where to find them.
JK's response was something to the tune of "well spotted" so I guess 
Crookshanks is indeed Kneazle.
I haven't read Fantastic Beasts myself [blush] so I am not sure how 
that effects speculation that he may be animagii. I guess at least it 
rules out his intelligence as a reason.

On other matters I am sure that theleakycauldron.org has 
comprehensive lists of nearly everything HP and another place you 
might find a list of spells is theHPlexicon I am sorry that these 
references are a little obscure. You may need to plug in to a search 
engine for the correct addresses. [blush again] 

I try to be helpful but a web diva I am not.
