Well, I'm just curious to know whether Rogue can absorb animal life as well as human life like if she touched a cat or a dog. Would she gain their fur, claws etc or would she just absorb their life force?

EEww I hope not.
Oh... have you asked this at other sites by chance? With writer's discretion up to various degrees, she probably can. She has absorbed Wolverine many times, and he is more dog than man really... I can't really think of any specific examples she has absorbed from animals, but she has had fur and claws before from like Beast and other type characters, also though when Rogue broke Professor X's favorite Vase...
I thought she could absorb powers as a side effect from powered beings. But otherwise she'd just absorb their life force (like with Cody during her first kiss) from non-powered beings.

Hmmmn, what about all those times she has absorbed humans, to acquire knowledge and skills? Like actual non powered humans? So far as suggested, its any characters with flesh no?
Oh okay cool anyway, thank you for clarifying. ^_^

Well, she reacts differently to different kinds of life forms. That's why when she came into contact with Carol Danvers' half-human/half-kree DNA she permanently retained most of her invulnerability, flight & super strength. For all we know, if a butterfly landed on her finger she could permanently turn into a half-insect/half-woman hybrid... but it's most liekly that the butterfly would've been drained dry & died instantly.
Of course, it's all moot now that she can control her powers.
@SC: No, I haven't! Where's it from?

Your one of the posters thats messages I do not get indicated on, I am not sure how that affects messages? Otherwise, I have sent you a link.
It was in the Strange Tales anthology released a few weeks back. Her Kraven story might be better than her one Rogue one. Actually she did a Wolverine Cyclops Storm one too you might like... *goes in search*

" She's absorbed Magus in the past, who is techno-organic and barely resembles a human. Actually i don't think there's any reason why she wouldn't be able to absorb an animal. "
If we are taking nominations, I put forward the motion for a Liger.
@hazlenaut: Colossus Organic Steel doesn't protect him against Rogue touch at all. That is only a movie thing. In the Comics she has done it multiple times.
Also Rogue keeping Carols powers permanently had nothing to do with her half Kree DNA. Rogue held onto Ms. Marvel to long. Rogue can maintain abilities for hours with the slightest touch. So if she holds onto someone for like 30 Seconds or more they will become permanent. She only held onto Ms.marvel for like 30 Seconds max. However long it takes you to read that sentence.
Also she eventually does become strong enough to absorb WonderMan.
She also absorbed the Hetacomb which was nothing more the Psi-Energy and technology.
So she can absorbed any living thing or any living Energy.

Well as long as it is organic energy, she can, she has absorbed different races of aliens, gods, characters with powers and cosmic level, demons, and the recent exceptions ghosts, and beings in astral form without physical body.
Before she was only limited to organic beings and could not absorb characters with powers based on technologies, but in recent years her powers have increased, and many exceptions have been given, for example she has absorbed people in astral forms (without physical body ) and has absorbed powers that are based on technology, at least there have been some exceptions from this, such as the powers of Wonderman (which does not have an organic body really, but of pure energy) and the former was immune to his touch, no longer , and she absorbed the powers of the childrens of the vault, that their powers come from technology, they are not natural.
