Answer 1

Is there an English word or phrase that describes a particular type of moment or thing that would make you laugh or enjoy?

For a single word for joy/pleasure we have

Delight (n.)

Something that gives great pleasure

Her performance was a delight M-W

COUNTABLE NOUN

You can refer to someone or something that gives you great pleasure or enjoyment as a delight.

The aircraft was a delight to fly. Collins

For a single word for certain types of enjoyment/humor we have (in AmE)

Hoot (n)

Something or someone amusing

The play is a real hoot. M-W

(If someone tells me that they found something a hoot, I would think it is more on the side of laugh-provoking than simply amusing.)

Answer 2

There is the informal expression it's not (really) my/your thing ( with the variants not my bag, not my cup of tea). You hear that in adverts sometimes. Free dictionary defines it as:

Not something one particularly enjoys or is good at; it is not something that you really enjoy or are interested in:

• If skiing's not your thing, Soldier Hollow also offers snowshoeing and a lift-served tubing hill, plus rental equipment. (Soldier Hollow)

You could also turn the sentence round and say:

because you are not a (big) fan of animals...

a fan of (someone or something)
Someone who strongly likes, appreciates, supports, or is interested in someone or something.

• Sorry, but I'm not really a fan of Art Deco. (FreeDict)
