Felyne are background characters in the Capcom franchise Monster Hunter.

Origin

Felyne are a member of the Lynian class, which consist of monsters that resemble cats. Felyne are bipedal and and capable of human language, which allows them to enter a human village and assimilate themselves into the community. Felyne take on a variety of jobs in the village, such as a chef that cooks food for hungry citizens, as well as joining hunters on their journeys as a companion.

A specific Felyne with a more cartoonish design, the one on which the Mii headgear is based, is the main character of the Felyne Village series of spin-offs.
