Good evening

Please confirm if the above "personal "a" is used when referring to pets in the following sentences:

I like my cat.

I like cats

I like my pet

I like pets.

Thank you!

You state that él is a 'subject personal pronoun', but it seems worth mentioning that él is not always the subject, it can be an object or another role. I'm not sure what term is best to describe that... Wiktionary says it's a "subject and disjunctive pronoun (used as a subject and after prepositions)"

Examples where it is not the subject of the sentence:

'Voy a hablar con él.'

'A él le gustan los perros.'

Hello Irma. With regard to the use of "conque" for the English equivalent of "so," my Mexican tutor says in Latin American spanish "entonces" or " así" are used. Further she writes:
< Aquí "conque" funciona como un "so" que indica consecuencia, y en ese contexto se entiende. Pero te confirmo que en México diario nadie dice eso — sonaría muy chistoso, como si estuvieras leyendo a Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz.> Maybe you can update this answer.
And with regard to the use of  " y eso que ," she states that more common is the use of < aunque > or < a pesr de que.> If you are in agreement, perhaps an update on this, too, might be warranted. 
Thank you so much!

Thanks for the article!

Small point regarding hiw it's written: In English, when we want to refer to a suffix we normally prefix it with a hyphen. So

> We use the indefinite adjective algún (a, os, as)

Would be clearer written as

We use the indefinite adjective algún (-a, -os, -as)

Example given: Maria pidío dinero a Manuel - Maria asked Manuel for money.  Why isn’t it Maria pidío dinero de Manuel?  Would this way of saying it be acceptable?

Good evening

Please could you give me examples of the use of the personal "a" when referring to animals.
