Animagus Wilderness

I usually start with having a list open of all the current animagi in TextEdit, so I can easily search for the taken forms. Then, as I read, I take notes of things that stick out to me as major defining traits, and write down next to them an animal that comes to mind, just generally. So if somebody wrote, "I'm very solitary," I'd write "SOLITARY = FELINE/BIRD OF PREY" next to it. Then as I go down, I keep doing this and then once I have more than one of a certain type of animal, I begin narrowing it down by other traits that I find within it. If somebody says that they're female and are a go-getter, that has me thinking lionness, versus like being taken care of and pampered, which says house cat. Then I search for animals I've heard of that I know aren't on the list and try to match them with the people.
