Music for Animals was met with "generally favorable" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 72, based on 6 reviews.

Writing for Uncut, Piers Martin wrote: "The Piano Day founder eschews the piano for these 10 pieces, two of which nudge the half-hour mark, preferring to conjure a generally downcast mood of slowly unfurled tones and drones, through which chinks of light can be glimpsed occasionally."
