No gendered pronouns and we honestly use “it” (se) as a pronoun. No, I would never use it in English unless I meant to purposefully dehumanise someone, but in Finnish it’s just the normal colloquial version of a personal pronoun, whereas “hän” is a 3rd person pronoun that’s more formal, (but also non-gendered) . Pets usually get to be referred to as “hän” with the more formal personal pronoun, weirdly enough.
Don’t learn Finnish I guess.

I can understand using more respectful language for pets than people.
And you’ll probably understand why instinctively I would say cats get that more than dogs.
(And I’m a dog-person much more than a cat-person.)
