When asked if eevee is more of a fox, dog, or cat:
Yes

THEY'RE ALL THE ANIMALS

Animals, you say?

not to be the nerd emoji. but Eevee is actually a mix of a lot of dog/dog-like animals, such as well, dogs, foxes, and coyotes, it's supposed to look familiar, but different at the same time

Well, Eevee may be a fox, but foxes are technically canine

I’m a fox aswell

This explains life.
