Thanks!!

Oh wow, this is compliacted! LOL I've noticed I've switched between "he" and "it" in my articles, but I don't like it.

Well, I'm trying to use terms like "the cat/your cat" as much as possible, but I cannot use it all the time, otherwise it would sound very stupid.

I remember I have learned "it" for animals at school, but that is a long time ago, and I saw it's barely used for pets these days.

I saw "he" is used a lot in books when the cat has no specific gender. In German, it's just the other way around, the word "Katze" (cat) is female, unless you're referring particularly to male cats.
