The Tanuki in Grow a Garden was added with the Zen Update. You can only get this pet from Zen Eggs, which are special eggs tied to the Zen Event. There are two main ways to get Zen Eggs:

Buy Zen Eggs from the Zen Shop

Go to the Zen Shop in the middle of the island. Here, you can buy Zen Eggs for 30 Chi each. You get Chi by giving Tranquil plants to the Zen Shop NPC. If you want, you can also buy Zen Eggs for 149 Robux each.

Trade with the Zen Channeller

You can give Tranquil fruit to the Zen Channeller for a chance to get a Zen Egg. This way is cheaper, but you’re not always guaranteed to get an egg every time.

Once you have a Zen Egg, hatch it and hope for a Tanuki. The Tanuki has a 20.82% chance to hatch from a Zen Egg, which is much better than some other rare pets in the game.
