Mine, I think, would either be a tiger or any cat of some sort. As you can see in my siggy. That's my cat which, for some reason turns out in all 'funny' in photos. So what is yours?

( I always felt better after hugging my dog when I was upset. and when I think about my sister I think "horses" -------------------- LoyalBraveIntelligentCunning ~All in all a Hogwarts Girl

The lion represents bravery, loyalty, strong-willed, courageous, but quite family oriented. Also I have always dreamed of frolicking with lions and lionesses although I just prefer the bushy mane of the male lion. In addition, when I was growing up I remember since I was a baby, visiting the lion at our small zoo. I had a special connection with KC the lion, and I swear we could communicate with one another. When I learned to drive, I would go and visit him so I think the happiness issue does play a role. Tonk's patronus changed to a werewolf-don't mean to get all lovey dovey. Back to topic OR I also dream of swimming with huge gray whales . Whales represent wisdom--something I strive for- as well as intuition--I live by my intuition. But that would be a little over the top to have a huge gray whale as a patronus--it might be quite powerful though but not too discrete although it might appear like a big fog rolling in.

Monster Book Stacker Posts: 354 Joined: 12:32pm July 27, 2006 Location: Denial	somehow I find the thought of a whale-patronus funny, just imagine it floating after a couple of dementors... Mine wouldn't be that scary either, I think it would be a raccoon. For some reason the word raccoon makes me laugh (the german translation, which is waschbär even more) and I think they are incredibly cute. I know this is weird, but one of the funniest things that ever happened to me was when our biology teacher showed us a picture of a cuddly raccoon which looked like one of these "WANTED" posters, asked us what it was and I raised my hand to say "it's a raccoon". I was laughing madly for the rest of the day, so probably that's a happy thought. --------------------

Professional Diagon Alley Window Shopper Posts: 64 Joined: 2:10pm December 9, 2006 Location: Ravenclaw common room	Rowling based most of the characters' patronuses on their sign in Celtic Animal Birth Signs and some don't even have their own sign, but have one of the representative animals (not astrology, that corresponds with the the the type of wood that the wands are made of because Celtic Astrology signs are types of trees) I, being a Pisces, might have seal patronus. I feel no connection with the seal (I just can't see a seal hoping about getting rid of dementors for me), but I do like the idea of having and animal that has something to do with water. I'd want something i bit more intimidating than a seal, lol. But for the record...cats are my favorite animal December 24 - January 20 Stag January 21 - February 17 Crane February 18 - March 17 Seal March 18 - April 14 Bear April 15 - May 12 Adder May 13 - June 9 Bee June 10 - July 7 Otter July 8 - August 4 Cat August 5 - September 1 Salmon September 2- September 29 Swan September 30 - October 27 Goose October 28 - November 27 Owl November 25 - December 23 Raven This post has been edited by Ravenclaw Lady: Dec 17 2006, 11:53 PM -------------------- Be not afraid of greatness: some men are born great, some men achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

But he was born in July. So technicly, if you wanted to go by that list thing, his would be a cat or an otter (i'm really ashamed that i can't remember when his birthday is!) mine would have to be a flamingo. even though when they're a patronus they're all silvery, in real life, they are pink (my favorite color!) and also, they can fly, like the dementors, so if they started to fly away, the flamingo could fly too and go get them. oh, and i just think they're cool. -------------------- Just in case you are wondering.... if you ever go out in public with a lightening bolt scar drawn on your head. People will deffinitly stare at you.

Think my patronous would either be a bear, a wolf or a raven. It depands on what emotions or feelings I have at the moment of conjuring my patronous
