Order caudata (newts & salamanders). Loved learning about them (starting from genus ambystoma, particularly the spotted salamander in the picture.) from childhood. I keep and raise them as a hobby, really interesting animals most people don't seem to know a whole lot about. I have a vested scientific interest in them, so I could easily go on. Bottom line is, cool, intelligent, variable, beautiful. (Photo is mine)
 
I legitimately like gorillas and think they're one of the world's most wonderful animals. I never found Harambe memes funny because I was actually kind of sad when they put him down.

I also find great whites pretty cool. Seems every few years we learn something completely new about them.
 
I love all animals, but I adore the crow (and other corvids) the most. Not only are they really intelligent for birds, but I've read that they're kind as well. They visit their aging parents and help them raise their young as well. They also help crippled crows and will bring objects to people who feed them as barter. I even read a story about a crow who brought apples to a corn field in exchange for corn.

I also like sheep and hyenas, but that's because I think sheep are cute and hyenas are cool.

I hate dolphins, though. Mainly the male dolphins because they're intelligent, yet assholes. They'll kill their own young just so they can mate again, attack and kill porpoises for the fun of it, kill baby sharks, and use puffer fish to get high.

I also hate wasps/hornets/yellow jackets for obvious reasons. Also stink bugs because they're annoying.
 
Cats are number one for me, but I generally like all animals that are capable of affection and don't want to kill me. Not a big fan of ticks though.

Crows are great, there is a crow that lives near my house which sometimes hides a branch in a gutter and takes it out to poke it in places it can't reach with spider webs so it can eat the insects.
 
I used to visit an animal sanctuary every year on a family holiday. There was a black goat with awesome curled horns who was kind of a bitch to the younger kids, gently butting them away. He'd lie down next to me for head scritches though. One year we went and he wasn't there anymore (:_( RIP Metal Goat
