You can check out an alternative get_output_string method here to avoid getattr (not the best choice to use if there is alternative - it make code more readable).

You program always prints none in the end, please debug why this is and fix (should be a simple fix :) )

…ad of returning output

So can you explain in which cases the output is None here and when it is not None?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Output is None only if the animal function doesn't return anything. In the official cowsay module, it always returns a string.
The output is not None in normal cases because standard cowsay animal functions return a string of ASCII art.

Why does it print None when you remove if output is not None:? What is considered to be not a normal case?
