If you are asking about the professors in the Harry Potter books and movies, it is Professor McGonagall, the Transfiguration teacher. She transforms into a tabby cat with markings around her eyes that are similar to her spectacles.

40. It is believed that for every human year a cat year is 5.
No. There are similar words, for instance one particular fur pattern used to be called a "jellicle cat", a term which appears in Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats and in the musical Cats which was loosely based on it, but Professor McGonagall was not, as far as we know, named after a specific cat variety.
Because of the lack of traction. A highly polished floor is very very smooth, so it provides little to no friction that would help a cat when it runs or turns corners at high speeds. A cat's paw cannot grip the floor surface, which is why a cat will skid or slide when moving quickly.
Professor McGonagall is the transfiguration professor at Hogwarts and can turn into a cat. She doesn't follow Harry around though, the cat that does that is Filch the caretakers cat Mrs Norris, who is not a transfigured human.
Very good question, but this is a book-series for children, so it is never discussed in any of the books.
Tabby cat.
Transfiguration was taught by Professor Albus Dumbledore. When he became headmaster he was replaced by Professor Minerva McGonagall.
