Bats

This morning, I discovered that two bats had flown into my sleeping room while I was asleep. Now, they are hanging upside down at the lamp, sleeping.

I live in the periphery of one of the biggest cities of Germany. It surprises me that there are bats around here, it is kind of unexpected for me that they fly into peoples' homes.

Somewhere I have heard that bats transmit diseases, even though I can't recall the context right now. Therefore it would be kind of them if they could simply fly out and find another place to sleep. Or maybe they could at least wear a face mask. But when I talked to them, they ignored me. And it didn't look like they understand humour. So, I tried to scare them by making a lot of noise with the vacuum cleaner. However, they simply ignored me and my noise. I looked for that terrible incense some aggressive Chinese street vendor me to buy a few years ago. Eventually, it might be of some use. The bats ignored the smell, but it made me get a headache. Great. Next try, maybe bats are scared of cats. I carried the cats into the sleeping room, but the animals ignored each other. After a few minutes, there were four instead of two animals sleeping in my room. I would be really happy if I had a sleep as deep as theirs.

Considering the soundness of their sleep, I could simply catch them, but they look so fragile that I don't dare to do it. Bats are endangered species in Germany. And where should I put them? So there is no way out: I have to wait till the evening. I hope they will get hungry and fly out to hunt insects.

But what do I do if they come back? What do I do if they get used to sleeping in my room? Can humans and bats be friends?

if you meant humour in general, then your original sentence was correct (except no matter what, you should change "look" to "seem"), but I think the sentence sounds better when you talk about your humour specifically
