All is well that ends in pizza.
I think I agree that JKR seems to say the patronis is very much influenced by who you are. That's why Snape's patronis was a doe like Lily's.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
But your patronus can change. I'd be quite surprised if your animagus form could.

I think that your patronus is what makes you happy or confident, which can change. Your animagus is more about who you are. which can change as well, but not nearly as much.

IIRC, yes, but it's pronounced 'weskit' if you're being authenticlike.

But you don't have to write it like that. . . ever, right?

Because either way, I would think that Sirius, James, and Remus would think it suspicious that Peter becomes a rat.
I thought it was supposed to be a bit foreshadowy for the reader, but at the time the boys wouldn't really think much of it. I think the animals they became (Remus notwithstanding) were very reflective of their personalities.
(Note: this may be a conclusion based more on fanfic than canon.)
