Felyne

The Felyne are the one of two main cat-like species of the Lynians, along with the Melynx. Felynes are noted for their general cuteness and are easily spotted by their light-colored fur. These cats scavenge for items in the wilds and bring them back to their villages to make use out of the spoils. They are intelligent beings, capable of having even their own written language. Some Felynes prefer living a town life, working for humans. Both Felynes and Melynx hold excellent skills in cooking and can be hired to cook meals for you in the Felyne Kitchen. These meals can boost or decrease your stats depending on the combination of ingredients chosen. (MHF2 Felyne Kitchen Guide (by VGProdigy))

While typically being in the wild, they will attack in groups if threatened, chasing and clubbing said threats with their pickaxes and igniting bombs and hurling them toward their foe.

In most inhabited areas, these Lynians maintain a small village. In a pile of collected goodies, you may find one of the items that may have been stolen from you by Melynx. Also, a small pile of barrels often will yield things like Small Barrels, Large Barrels, Mystery Bones. Also, if you are lucky, you may get the Barrel Lids which that can only be found there. You can even find Lost Umbrellas that can be used to make Light Bowguns

In Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, a new feature allows you to now hire "Felyne Fighters". They are bought from the same old lady that you buy your kitchen cats(Sometimes she sells fighters, other times she sells Kitchen Cats). Each Felyne has a different kind of personality, and how they prefer to fight. There are even cats that are pacifists (They do not fight). Their fighting preferences can differ from "Only Bombs", "only Weapon", "Balanced", "Mostly Weapon" etc. As you fight with your cat its loyalty goes up, when your cat has higher loyalty it will help you more often during battle. For example: When a monster puts you to sleep, your cat will run over to you and hit you so you'll wake up. It also does this when a monster roars, and many other times. As they fight they get skill points, with these points you can give your cat skills (Max 3, you can erase and get new ones) Some skills include: Health Flute, Shock Trap (Cat sometimes puts down a S. Trap), EarPlug, etc..
