    Is it possible to use "kiam ajn" as part of a question?

      Normally, for the 3rd person singular of pronouns for animals (even human babies...), in Esperanto, "ĝi" is used instead of he/she.

        I agree, it should be ĝi here, using li seems like an anglicism.

          In my native language, using 'it' to a pet is showing that you do not love it.. (Just sharing)
