I'd be suprised if they didn't make one, this is a setting that beggs to be explored furhter. It'd be easy to team up Judy or Nick again, or adding/repalcing them with new protagonists, it's easy to make fun characters when they're anthropomorphic animals. This is a world that has alot of potential, it's pretty and intruiging to look at, and the way the society is set up beggs to be furhter explored. Perhapps they could do something to adress the other kinds of animals aside from mammals, maybe it could involve visiting/being in conflict with some nation of reptiles.

The only problem I see with making a sequel is the way it risks being compared wiht the first one in terms of message. The first one had a pretty strong and well-excecuted message, using animal prejudice to represent ethnical and even gender prejudice of the real world. The problem is that if they try going for the same message in the next movie it might seem repetitive and annoying. If they try to find a new strong message for the next film, they'll have to deal with the relative disadvantage of the first film being set up to tell the story of prejudice, whilst the next one will have to make due telling whatever its message might end up being using a world that's already set up. And if they decide to not go for any strong message, they may end up making the sequel look shallow in comparison, almost more like spin-off than a spiritual successor.
