Absotively posilutely!  I *knew* when we met Crookshanks there was 
something animagical about him.  McGonagall is after all a feline 
animagus -- I wonder if she has a code name when she's catting around 
(LOL).  I started wondering if Crooksy could even be Lily, caught in 
animal form somehow, but the priori incantatum scene in GoF blew that 
out of the water.  So now I'm thinking he is a Weasley, based on the 
red hair.  Or maybe Mrs. Figg, whose fondness for cats is well known -
-  maybe while HP is at school she doesn't have to hang out in Muggle 
land.  I believe he is part of Dumbledore's way of keeping an eye on 
the trio without them being aware of it.
