The king of Nineveh told everyone, including the animals, to put on what piece of clothing in hopes that God would not destroy their city?

Answer Sackcloth

Sackcloth is an itchy wool that rubbed and hurt the skin. It reminded the wearer of the pain they were facing or would face, thus encouraging prayer and repentance. To put it on the animals seems extreme, but it shows how convinced the Ninevites were of the impending doom.
