My friend wants manga with cute animals in them. I have since exhausted my resources looking for such manga so have decided to ask here for help.
To clarify, the animal has to appear often enough in the series to count as at least a side character. (Ex: Kon in Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha., President Aria/Hime in Aqua/Aria, and those of that ilk.)
Preferably, not tragedy. Otherwise, anything else goes. (Well, other than hentai, of course, but I think that would be obvious. Slight shounen-ai/shoujo-ai is fine, but I doubt any yaoi/yuri has much focus on cute animals.) Edit: Forgot to mention, she also prefers action/adventure series, but other genres are fine as long as the animals in question are adorable. Oh, and also, she cannot stand gore. So no really bloody/gory manga either, please.
Also, if all else fails, feel free to recommend manga with cute/squishable children too, like the kids in Barakamon or Aladdin from Magi.
And, as this is for my friend, no need to check my lists or whatever. Just recommend away~ Please and thank you.

Gon Nichijou Sakamoto! There is also the cutest child, Hakase. Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun in the anime there is always this chicken, but I never read the manga so I don't really know. Hayate no Gotoku! Nagi is living with a tiger, I'll leave to you decide if it's cute. Milk Crown he has a shark pet, lol. Sankarea has a zombie cat, I find it cute but maybe someone else would find it repulsive.
Also if "character can transform in animals" count: Fruits Basket Vampire Game
For children: Yotsubato! and the aforementioned Nichijou.

Second Petshop of Horrors, though I'm not whether it can be counted as "cute".
There's also King of Bandit Jing but that crow is far from what I consider cute. I watched the anime some time ago but dunno the manga.
Hakkenden also has animals, probably the one that fits the most.
And the other one that pops up in my mind is Wagaya no Oinarisama, but honestly... though she's a fox, she's not a pet.
But ehh~ other than that, I can't think of anything else off the top of my head. I know there's a few more, mainly youkai and stuff or other fantasy animals, but just can't remember. There's one or two with normal animals too~ but what was the title again?
Maybe try the anime tag? http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?category=Animals

My Young Cat and My Old Dog, Ano Ko to Boku no Ie, Papi Nyang, Nekomichi, Wild Cats and Unico. Hm, Shippo no Kimochi for shounen-ai and Sentimental Garden Lover for yaoi+transformation (since your friend wants animals, I won't recommend other titles, but if you want more, just ask me to). Why doesn't she give a change to Centaur no Nayami? It's not exactly animals, but really cute magic creatures... Bambi no Tegami, maybe. For cute kids, definitely Gakuen Babysitters, flat (AOGIRI Natsu), My Girl and Love So Life.

Children/ baby: Daa! Daa! Daa!, love so life, gakuen babysitters, Aishiteruze baby mirumo de pon! -not animals but fairies.
i'm not very familar with manga with cute animals... do animals/creatures in those fantasy manga counts? i will just give what i know anyway. pets/ cute creatures: tsubasa chronicle, cardcaptor sakura, rave Mamacolle, pichi pichi pitch-penguin Kaichou-san Chi no Koneko -kitten
most of the manga i gave are pretty much shoujo and romance if you don't mind.

Appear quite frequently/major part of the story: Kemono no souja-griffon type thing. Very cute, hasnt been scanned much so Id advise watching the anime if you crave more. Its very important to the story but takes a while to get to it... Beyond the beyond-bunny and cute characters +Anima-all charas squishable and have equippable animal characteristics Fairy tail-flying cat sidekick Alice 19th-magical bunny Happy talk-talking crow Gate 7-Squishable character Tsubasa reservoir chronicles-Round cute thing that talks...Mokona Tokage Ouji-Prince that got turned into a lizard Tonkaradani Monogatari-multiple short stories involving animals Kazan-Cant remember what the animal was, just remember it played a big part... One piece-chopper, a reindeer with human characteristics, squishable in some instances, one of 9 main characters. Princess Bride story-magical cat thing Neko mix Genkitan toraji-cat mc One fine day-all characters squishable Kuro the coffin carrier-the bat can be cute sometimes...definately a sidekick though... #000000 - Ultra Black-demon creature that gets consulted Millenium snow-bat that transforms into a little boy... Dragon drive-cute little dragon Tegami bachi-cute characters and a cute girl sidekick with a strange but sometimes sweet animal.... Blue exorcist-cat side character, a small green flower spirit and summoned fox spirits
Appear less frequently: Dusk story-stories to do with animal spirits, a cat in particular 07 Ghost-cute baby dragon Kuroko no basuke-dog Shin angyo onshi-bat 1/2 Prince-meatbun...literally a cute talking meatbun Demon diary-most characters squishable Demon flowers-rabbit thing occassionally appears.....not for the faint hearted though, a lot of blood and gore Fullmetal alchemist-panda and a dog are sometimes part of the story Samurai champloo-flying squirrel-but it appears more in the anime.... Nausicaa-sand squirrel Arcana-some small creature...think it has bunny ears

Thank you, everyone, for all the suggestions!
I forgot to mention at the beginning that she prefers action/adventure series, but I don't think she would mind shoujo romances either as long as she can ogle the animals, haha. She also already read +Anima, Fairy Tail, and One Piece (and, yes, she does indeed love everyone in +Anima, Happy in Fairy Tail, and Chopper in One Piece).
I'll link her to this thread and see what she thinks. :>
