But apart from my transformations, I was happier than I had ever been in my life. For the first time ever, I had friends, three great friends. Sirius Black… Peter Pettigrew… and, of course, your father, Harry – James Potter. Now, my three friends could hardly fail to notice that I disappeared once a month. I made up all sorts of stories. I told them that my mother was ill, and that I had to go home to see her… I was terrified they would desert me the moment they found out what I was. But of course, they, like you, Hermione, worked out the truth… and they didn’t desert me at all. Instead, they did something for me that would make my transformations not only bearable, but the best times of my life. They became Animagi.
James Potter: Leader of the Marauders, died protecting his wife and son from the Dark Lord. He greeted his son, Harry, before his death in the Forbidden Forest.His patronus was a stag.Sirius Black: The most rowdy Marauder of them all, he remained faithful and loyal, after all those years…even in Azkaban. He “would have died rather than betray” Lily and James, his friends. His animagus was a dog.
Peter Pettigrew: The Marauder who betrayed James and Lily, telling their whereabouts to the Dark Lord — “A monstrous betrayal.” His animagus was a rat.
Remus Lupin: The level-headed one of the Marauders, he was the main genius behind the Marauder’s Map which gave pathways to make traveling through the Hogwarts Grounds easier. He then became the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher during Harry Potter’s third year. He was a werewolf.

“This is all your fault, Prongs.”
“I wasn’t the one who decided to fly in on a motorcycle before turning into a dog”“No, you just flew in then turned into a deer, much better”^best comment EVER!

(And this is how I’ve always seen Sirius- Hoorah!
