Remlit

Remlits are an animal species found in Skyloft in SS undefined.

Characteristics
They are well-mannered in the day and will follow Link around if he picks them up only to set them down again. They will flee, however, if he takes out a weapon. These creatures will make sounds that are akin to a cat's meow or purr when picked up and carried around. If thrown off the side of Skyloft, they will simply just use their ears as wings to fly right back up again. They exhibit aggressive behavior at night, prowling in the dark along with other evil creatures. These Remlits will not hesitate to attack Link by leaping at him, but will cower after being struck a few times. If Link picks them up while they're cowering, they will start to attack again. After Link turns Batreaux into a human, the Remlits stop being aggressive and monsters no longer walk at night.

Mia
Mia is a beige Remlit belonging to Zelda and Gaepora that has a habit of scampering off. Link can help Horwell find Mia at the beginning of the game. During the night when Link chases Fi, he sees Mia again, but to his surprise, even she has become aggressive.

Trivia

 * Remlits have the ability to fly in both forms, as they can flap their floppy ears to gain altitude.
 * Link can throw Remlits off the edge of Skyloft in either of their forms. The Remlit will fly back after a short period of time.
 * Remlits are one of the few enemies that can't be killed.
 * Horwell keeps a scratching post set in his room for Mia to play with while he is watching her.
 * Sprinkling Glittering Spores on a Remlit will stun it and cause it to fall back and then run away as if attacked normally.
 * During the day, the Remlits of Skyloft (except Mia) reside in a small flower bed area to the Statue of the Goddess's right, where they can be seen resting. This area can be accessed only from the point Link acquires the Clawshots to the point where the Goddess Statue returns to the surface near the end of the game. During night, these Remlits leave this area and roam Skyloft.
