Draco wouldn't remember being a ferret, right? 

Pippin:
I don't think that follows. A transformed werewolf doesn't ordinarily
remember its human state, but does have memories of what it did while
it was transformed. Lupin, for example, knows that he didn't eat
anything while he was in the Forbidden Forest. Similarly, IMO, the
ferret wouldn't remember that it had ever been a wizard, but the
wizard might remember that it had been a ferret.

Pippin:
Bagman's commentary is that Krum's transfiguration was incomplete. It
might have been an incomplete animagus transformation.
