Lucy:
Has there been a discussion on who or what Crookshanks really is? I 
feel he/she is more than just a cat but how does he/she fit in the 
future stories? I don't have the books (I just keep checking them out 
of the library), so is Crookshanks male or female?
Any ideas?

Taryn:
Crookshanks is male, and half-Kneazle. It's a subject that's been brought up numerous times. The last time was actually just about a month ago, and I quoted the following bit from an interview:

Lizo: ...I was particularly interested in the bit about the Kneazle, is
Crookshanks possibly... uh, have any Kneazle...?

JKR: Yes, part-Kneazle yes, he is, yes, well-spotted.

Lizo: And is that important...?

JKR: Well, you'll just have to keep reading, won't you Lizo?
