Did Abraham Lincoln have a pet?
Yes, he had cats, goats, dogs, and a turkey. He especially kittens. A friend once said that he would take one [a kitten] & turn it on its back & talk to it for half an hour at a time. Secretary of State William H. Seward presented the Lincoln household with two kittens early in his administration, and the Lincoln's named one of the kittens, "Tabby". Mrs. Lincoln sometimes became exasperated by the President's love for animals, especially when it came to Tabby, who, at times, was allowed a seat at the dinner table. Once "Tabby" was seated next to him at a White House dinner, Mrs. Lincoln asked; "Don't you think it's shameful for Mr. Lincoln to feed Tabby with a gold fork?" Mr. Lincoln provided the answer: "If the gold fork was good enough for former President James Buchanan, I think it is good enough for Tabby." He had many other animals, as well. In the White House, a gift of a couple of Nanny goats, Nanny and Nanko were given to the Lincoln's, to keep the horses company, except, the goats tended to keep company in the White House, more often than they did the horses, out in the stalls.
