"Beyond the obvious facts that he has at some time done manual labour, that he takes snuff, that he is a Freemason, that he has been in China, and that he has done a considerable amount of writing lately, I can deduce nothing else." -- Sherlock Holmes to Dr Watson, The Red-Headed League
Pets would have required care and feeding and such, things that Sherlock Holmes might not have had time or inclinations for. Perhaps it is better that he did not have any as they might have died from neglect. Watson would've had to take care of him/her, grumbling all the way at Holmes and his lack of caring.
Sherlock Holmes enjoys fencing, talented at fencing but most of all, he loves the violin as well as music itself and to test out new chemical experiments. According to him, his mind starves for things to think and to do.
He could indeed be expressive. Remember him grinning more and more as that guy called him a busy-body among other things? However, if you mean "made into a cartoon", then, certainly. Check out Sherlock Holmes cartoons, Sherlock Hound (anime), Sherlock in the 22nd century and others. There are also animated characters very much like him. Jimmy Kudo/Conan Edogawa, L of Death Note and The Great Mouse Detective (Disney) based on the children's book series Basil of Baker Street come to mind.
David Burke left the Sherlock Holmes series due to creative differences with the production team. He reportedly disagreed with the direction the show was taking and the portrayal of his character, Dr. John Watson. Additionally, Burke wanted to pursue other acting opportunities and felt it was time to move on from the role.
This is because it has been around for about 159 years and this is where all the popular authors are
The little things are infinitely the most important.
{| |- | Sherlock Holmes, being a fictional character, never met Dr. Bell. Dr. Bell employed Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, as a clerk at the Edinborough Infirmary. He was quite adept at deducing things from small observations. |}

Sherlock Holmes is keen in observing things
sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote the Sherlock Holmes books, which are about an extraordinary man who was a consulting detective. Sherlock Holmes could tell, for example, about someones past just from looking at their clothes or face and things.
It is kind of difficult to pin down an answer for this question. None of the crimes "should have happened," and I am certain many other things (i.e., the deaths of Mary Morstan Watson and Sherlock Holmes (temporarily in the case of the latter).
Sherlock Holmes enjoys fencing, talented at fencing but most of all, he loves the violin as well as music itself and to test out new chemical experiments. According to him, his mind starves for things to think and to do.
They are what Sherlock Holmes refers to as the official police force. Consisting of boys who either live on the street or whose families are poor, the Baker Street Irregulars are the group Holmes uses to follow criminals, collect clues, and other things. He pays them for their work, just as if they were actual policemen.
There's two possibilities: 1. He's a time lord. This could explain how several different actors have portrayed him and they all have a slightly different demeanor. 2. Sherlock Holmes never traveled in time. Where did you even get that idea? Honestly what is going on in your mind? Are you getting mixed up because BBC's Sherlock takes place in modern times, or that the less interesting CBS show Elementary did the same things Sherlock did but made much more bland? Did they not make it perfectly clear that those shows do not depict the real Sherlock Holmes? Both of them are modern adaptations of the classic novels, (But BBC's Sherlock is much more faithful.)
He was a good foil and companion. By Holmes explaining things to Watson, it enables to give the reader an understanding of what was going on. He also served as an extra pair of hands and a strong arm when needed.

No, the fictional character Sherlock Holmes is not a schizophrenic. In the recent series with Benedict Cumberbatch, Sherlock Holmes is presented as a sociopath. edit- Not true! In the beginning of the series, he claims to be a sociopath and has many tendencies thereof, but it is later shown that he does, in fact, care. He has many deep seeded emotions and cares deeply for many people. It is, however, very likely that his is schizophrenic. He sees things that no one else sees and can fabricate entire worlds inside his own head, on top of the facts that he had difficulty socializing and reacting with proper emotional output.
