I prefer he or she when the gender is known. If not, a guess is fine. One pet peeve (no pun intended) of mine is when someone knows the gender of their pet, and insist on calling him/her an it.
My pet is a she or he, don't mix it up.
My pet has a gender identity crisis because I'm always calling him a her or her a him.
Pronouns are overrated, animals are an it.
