Seems to me that Gerard would be the new Kanima...Matt appeared to be turning into one himself just before he was killed, which suggests that the Kanima's master will eventually become one himself. He was also bitten, and the transformation being dependent upon the person's character, Gerard is definitely the best candidate to become one.

On the other hand, he was transformed with mountain ash in his blood, and it seem reasonable to assume that that would have messed something up with his animal form. so, even if he is a kanima, he may not need to have a master at all.
