 Paige Woods' Reply: 

  Actually, it was stated by JKR herself that Cookshanks is a kneazle. And from what I was able to dig up, a kneazle know what is right from wrong, and can see the truth... hence why Cookshanks liked Sirius and hated Scabbers. Anyway, I don't know if Cookshanks know that Sirius died (R.I.P), but I think Cookshanks does. 

  Since we are on the topic of the cat, I've been noticeing Cookshanks going to Harry awfully a lot in OoP. I wasn't going to bring it up until I've found all of the parts when Harry and Cookshanks are together, but I think it is a good time. Do any of you have any theories why Cookshanks is drawn to Harry? And please no, "Cookshanks is human" theories. I'm sorry, but I've thought that too, but JKR *has* stated that Cookshanks is a kneazle.
