Some purrloin variants! With some head canons for them:
Wild purrloins are much larger than domestic types, and typically sport darker, coarser coats with varied patterns. Their eye mask often extends below the eyes, or to the tips of the ears. They live in temperate and boreal forests, and are opportunistic omnivores that eat carrion, fruits, and nuts. They will occasionally hunt small bug, fish, and bird Pokemon. They are particularly adept at climbing, due to flexible wrists and hooked claws.
Purrloins have become a popular companion Pokemon over the last couple of centuries. While difficult to train, their varied diet and small size makes them easy to keep as pets in small homes. They can be trained to keep pests away, and of course for battling, though it takes a dedicated trainer to achieve worthwhile results.
There are two recognized lines of domesticated purrloin that can be found in the show scene: classic, and modern. The classic purrloin is bred for lax temperament, a vibrant coat, and clean markings across the face, legs, and back. It is considered against breed standard for the eye mask to extend below the eyes, though it may still reach the ends of the pokemon's ears.
Modern purrloins have only come about within the last century or so. They are a controversial breed, with many trainers asking for a cease in their breeding and showing. While wild purrloins may occasionally stand and walk on their hind legs to forage, modern purrloins have been bred with this behavior exaggerated. Some modern purrloins walk almost exclusively on their hind legs, which often results in early onset of arthritis in the legs, hips, and spine. Their markings are typically closer to that of a wild type purrloin, with less focus placed on symmetry or placement.
