Find Out What Your Patronus is with The Official Pottermore Patronus Quiz
The Harry Potter site Pottermore has launched an official quiz that will tell you what your Patronus is in the Harry Potter universe. The site also includes a “Sorting Hat” quiz that will tell you which house you belong in.
Just in case you need a reminder of what a Patronus is, it's described by Remis Lupin as "a kind of positive force, projection of the very things the Dementor feeds upon - hope, happiness, the desire to survive..."
The quiz is a multiple choice test. You are given two or three words that pop up and five seconds to click one instinctively. You don't really have time to think. No thoughts needed or wanted. I already took the quiz, and I don't know why, but I got a Calico Cat...and I hate cats. As for the sorting hat quiz, it put me in Ravenclaw House, which I'm perfectly fine with.
J.K. Rowling herself made the announcement on her Twitter feed and even revealed that her Potronus is a Heron. Check out her the tweets she sent out below:

When asked if getting a mythical creature was possible, Rowling said:
Yes, but they're rare! So far I've seen one hippogriff, one occamy and a unicorn... https://t.co/70e1PHjJiJ
