Besides the dogs mentioned in my previous post, I remembered
cats or kittens being mentioned somewhere.  Fortunately,
there's the booksearch:


   Jhereg, ch. 15 (referencing Aliera)
   She relaxed against the back of her bed, absently
   stroking a cat that I'd not been introduced to.


   Issola, ch. 10 (Lady Teldra speaking)
   "[...] and they worry about our damaging their artifacts
   the way one might worry about a pet kitten getting into
   the jewelry box."

   Issola, ch. 11
   The Goddess smiled, as one might at a kitten rolling on
   the floor playing with a piece of string.

And another dog reference:

   FHYA, ch 11
   Khaavren, after noting it, turned his eyes firmly
   away, feeling uncomfortably like the family dog
   salivating at the bone on his master's plate.
