Animals are not Funny
Just ask the NSA Agent who sued the government over having to watch too many cat videos.
Then again, I disagree with that agent. He should have asked for some dog videos if the cats were too much for him.
Watching vines and compilations of animals doing funny things, getting into (slapstick non-dangerous) danger, or having a guilty face over ripping up their care person's couch, is a good way to while away some hours just for fun. In your writing, you can use animals in many ways as a vehicle for comedy relief for a tense plot, or even have them carry the comedy.
Pets give us great fodder for situational comedy. Especially since we know their character and quirks, we can find many tidbits to infuse into our stories by building on those fun moments with the pet. In the USA, racoons are a perfect source for comedy. They have opposing thumbs, which makes them able to grab things, open things, climb on things, and be pretty much the ultimate urban terrorist since they eat anything from anywhere.
Depending on your location on Earth, you will have different animals that regularly create havoc in your neighborhood or in the nature areas around where you live. Include one or more of them in your plot. Have them show up once, give them a minor role, or go as far as using talking animals for the ultimate in animal-comedy.
