Mr. Pumpkinhead Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I think that when someone casts a patronus it is supposed to be an animal that someone associates with comfort. I've never known if someone could have something other than an animal for a patronus. Ofc (as Ariebelles pointed out to me as we are discussing patronuses now) Severus Snape changed his Patronus to Lily Potters, so in theory there is some measure of control we all would have over our patronuses. So were you able to choose your patronus, what animal would you choose, thinking in terms of something that has meaning to you and gives you comfort? Mine would be a cow. I've loved cows since I was little and my mum would always bye me cow teddys (as my friend Jen would call them) or stuffed toys as I'd call them. lol To this day my mum always byes me cow related things for my apartment, such as magnets and pot holders, etc. I've always loved how cows seem so relaxed and into their own little world. That kind of represents me well... So EXPECTO PATROMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (thanks Arie ) Link to post Share on other sites
Arie Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Aw thanks for the shout out!!! I discussed this with Jon and at first I said my protromous would be a horse. I don't like animals much but I do have a fondness for horses. Then I remembered that a patrons is supposed to cause you a certain amount of comfort. Throughout the books it mentioned about casting the patronus for that reason alone. I have a soft spot for vicious cats. So I decided that my protronus would be a lioness or a leopard. That would give me the most feeling of safety and comfort! Link to post Share on other sites
padfoot Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Argh, this is a tricky question for me, I'm such an animal lover. A dolphin, cat or white tiger. Seeing as dolphins swim that might look a little awkward... but the air can be its water. I'd choose a dolphin to be my Patronus, been obsessed with them since I was very young. Cats are my next favourite animal, one that I've actually spent time with before. I feel comforted by them because they're cuddly and usually/always know when you're really upset.

Junkie. Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 My patrounus would probably be a penguin or a cat. Link to post Share on other sites

BlackTiger Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Snow panther, definitely (also known as snow leopard) Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Deadpool Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I really don't know, since a patronus reflects myself and i can't really judge me >.< But i wish it was a horse, that'd be cool. Link to post Share on other sites
Mouse Rat Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I'm also a huge animal lover,but this is quite easy for me. The animal that brings me comfort is definitely a tiger! Whether it's the 'standard version' or a white tiger. For as long as I can remember I always had a weird obsession with tigers. Kinda like Kristen Bell with sloths (if you haven't seen that video,you live under a rock ). I kid you not,as a kid I would spend hours and hours in the zoo just staring at the them. Everyone around me was pissed cause obviously they wanted to see the other animals as well,but I refused to leave. Then my mom would have to stay with me while the rest of the family went on with the sightseeing (is that the appropriate word? I don't know...I don't care!). I don't know why that is,but till this day I get all 'warm and fuzzy' when I see a tiger. I understand it's not the type of animal that is in any way associated with 'warm and fuzzy' but to me it is! I saw every tiger-related documentary/TV show...you name it,I saw it! Heck,I have a picture of a white tiger as my phone wallpaper for over 2 years! So,yes,I'm obsessed with the freakin' animal and it would definitely be my patronus! Link to post Share on other sites
BlackTiger Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Hey Demian, that's a little bit like me . I'm not obsessed with tigers, but I'm very much fond of them. I didn't see many documentaries though.However, I have 9 representations (maybe a bit more) of a tiger just in my room including a pillow (I'm not sleeping on it, it's too disgraceful to this animal ) and 2 big cuddly toys (I know it's not very masculine, but hey, whatever )About a year ago I started to love snow panthers / leopards also. They are SO uniquely beautiful! And rare too, on extinction, unfortunately.In general, I adore big cats Link to post Share on other sites
Ophelia Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 A cormorant perhaps....I've always felt connected to the water somehow.And these animals always fascinated me. There is something about them which I can't quite explain. A magpie would also be possible... Link to post Share on other sites
HermioneRules Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 (edited) I'm guessing mine would be a cat cuz I don't tell anybody anything.. and I just look down on other ppl, and because of something that happened to me in 6th grade, I don't trust ppl, either.

Joanne P. Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 i think mine could be a beaver, because it's at its ease both on earth and in the water... but as someone else already said, we can't really know. Link to post Share on other sites
UnNamed Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I think mine would be a scorpion(if we can count it as an animal too) if not a lion or an eagle Link to post Share on other sites
Strawberry Sunshine Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Mine would be an owl. Link to post Share on other sites
NeverShoutNever Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I think mine would be a bird. Both if i had control, and naturally. I've always wanted to be able to fly, and they're able to wander anywhere and everywhere. My wanderlust is insatiable. Link to post Share on other sites
Bagel of Death Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 This is really funny because few weekends ago I was playing a drinking game with some friends and we were guessing what animal best describes us. Many of my friends think I would be a dolphin because of their playful behavior and because they're very clever. Not that I'm a big fan of dolphins anyway since it's been proven in the animal kingdom that these mammals are bullies and rapists. :[ Anyway, sorry for drifting off, but if I had to choose it would be a rabbit. I just have an incredibly soft spot for those fuzzy little fellas. I think it's their twitchy nose and cotton-ball tails! :] Link to post Share on other sites
