McGonagall is a registered Animagus and can transform herself into a tabby cat at will. McGonagall was always held in high respect by her peers and students at Hogwarts and commanded a position second only to Dumbledore.
Minerva had become an Animagus by the age of seventeen, being taught by Professor Dumbledore, who made a note within The Tales of Beedle the Bard to explain for her that, while Animagi were usually people who sought to avoid punishment when they broke the law, she merely became one to further her studies in ...
Even so, McGonagall chose to not join the Order of the Phoenix, which was seen as a renegade outfit by the Ministry at the time. Instead, unbeknownst to her students, she spent many nights spying for them in the guise of a tabby cat, bringing the Aurors crucial information on the activities of Voldemort's followers.
And there is no question that Snape was a talented wizard, and that he could have become one if he had wanted to. But the fact is, there is not one single shred of evidence in Canon that Snape ever became an animagus.

What would Draco Malfoy's Animagus be?
Draco is not an Animagus nor does he exhibit enough talent in Transfiguration to become one. However, I would personally guess he would be a small dragon: His very name is Draco, which means drake (a type of dragon). Sirius is the name of the Dog Star, lupine means “wolf-like”…
Mrs Norris was the pet cat of Argus Filch, the caretaker of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Mrs Norris was described as having an unusually strong connection with her master, alerting him to any students misbehaving inside the school castle. She was described as appearing almost the same way as Filch.
Later in the year, McGonagall duelled with Death Eater Alecto Carrow during the Battle in the Astronomy Tower and later learned of Snape's murder of Dumbledore. McGonagall was initially appointed as Headmistress, but was demoted after Voldemort took control of the school and placed Snape as Headmaster.
The once shy and awkward Neville Longbottom showed his true bravery during the battle of Hogwarts and eventually became the head of Gryffindor House while also teaching new students Herbology, his favorite subject.
Under the influence of her father, Dolores grew up despising her mother and brother for their lack of magical abilities. She was sorted into Slytherin House at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and hated her time at the school due to never being given any positions of power.
Loyalty. Professor Marazion succeeded Minerva McGonagall in the post of Head of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This individual became Headmaster or Headmistress some time between 2008 and 2017 after Minerva McGonagall went into retirement as she was "getting on a bit".
Either through eavesdropping or being deliberately told, Draco knows that Sirius could turn into a black dog and uses the information to torment Harry.
Originally Answered: Why didn't Remus Lupin become an Animagus? Because he didn't need to. For him, he was already facing one issue that was enough for a lifetime. He did not have the need to become an animagus like James, Sirius, Peter or Rita Skeeter.
No, I believe Rowling confirmed a while back that Crookshanks is not the Potter's cat. As for recognising Peter and Sirius, Crookshanks is half-kneazle (a highly intelligent animal), and recognised instantly that they weren't really animals.
Crookshanks was Hermione Granger's pet cat. He was half-Kneazle, as evidenced by his lion-like appearance, ability to solve problems on his own without aid or teaching, and clear dislike of and ability at recognising untrustworthy persons (even if they are transfigured).
Mrs. Norris' looming presence in the Harry Potter series is far too magical for her to be an ordinary cat, and there's enough evidence to support a theory that she's a Maledictus like Nagini. Filch's nosy cat appears all throughout the book series and occasionally in the films.

Still in love with Dougal McGregor, Minerva turned him down. Elphinstone, however, had never ceased to love her, nor to propose every now and then, even though she continued to refuse him. The death of Dougal McGregor, however, although traumatic, seemed to free Minerva.
Many fans have debated the possibility that McGonagall was in love with Dumbledore over the years. That's something we may not ever know for certain since it's mainly a theory, but there is some evidence of there being an unrequited crush on McGonagall's end throughout the books.
"Prongs" refers to James Potter's Animagus form, a stag. Interestingly, it is the same shape as Harry's fully-formed Patronus. This is why Lupin was so shaken after the Quidditch match with Ravenclaw in a previous chapter, recognizing it as James' Animagus shape.
With Sirius and James' help, Pettigrew becomes an Animagus, with the ability to transform at will into a rat. After leaving Hogwarts, Pettigrew joins forces with Voldemort, and in exchange for his own life becomes Voldemort's spy within the Order of the Phoenix, of which Pettigrew is a member.
A Metamorphmagus has the extraordinarily uncommon gift of being able to change their appearance at will. We famously met one in the Harry Potter series: Nymphadora Tonks, who used her shapeshifting abilities wisely in her job as an Auror.
