Turtle program error. Please help!

[Opalite]

I'm new so sorry if I posted wrong!

I keep getting a Traceback error and I'm not sure how to fix it.

while True:
    askQuestion = input( 'Pick between a dog or a cat: ' )
    
    if askQuestion == "cat":
        print( 'Good choice!' )
        break
    elif askQuestion == "dog":
        print( 'Too bad! you get a cat. ' )
        break
    else:
        print( 'Please choose between a dog or a cat' )
    
askQuestion = input( 'pick a color for your cat! \nChoose Blue, red, or yellow: ' )
penSize = input( 'Please pick a pen size 1 through 100: ' )
penPace = input( 'Lastly, pick a pen speed, 1 through 100: ' )

import turtle

s = turtle.getscreen()

window = turtle.Screen()
window.bgcolor("white")
turtle.color(askQuestion)
turtle.pensize(penSize)
turtle.speed(penPace)

The input() function in Python always returns a string. That's why, when you're expecting numeric input (like in the case of penSize and penPace), you need to explicitly convert the string to the desired numeric type using int() or float().

while True:
    askQuestion = input( 'Pick between a dog or a cat: ' )
   
    if askQuestion == "cat":
        print( 'Good choice!' )
        break
    elif askQuestion == "dog":
        print( 'Too bad! you get a cat. ' )
        break
    else:
        print( 'Please choose between a dog or a cat' )
   
askQuestion = input( 'pick a color for your cat! \nChoose Blue, red, or yellow: ' )
penSize = input( 'Please pick a pen size 1 through 100: ' )
penPace = input( 'Lastly, pick a pen speed, 1 through 100: ' )

print(type(askQuestion), type(penSize), type(penPace), '\n')


askQuestion = input( 'pick a color for your cat! \nChoose Blue, red, or yellow: ' )
penSize = float(input( 'Please pick a pen size 1 through 100: ' ))
penPace = float(input( 'Lastly, pick a pen speed, 1 through 100: ' ))

print(type(askQuestion), type(penSize), type(penPace))
