MemberNice art, but the face kinda reminds me of one of those creepy Egyptian hairless cats rather than a canine like Umbreon.

MemberI see what you mean, but I've always seen umbreon and espeon as more feline than canine.

MemberAll of the eeveelutions are pretty ambiguous with the exception of Espeon, so it's why you see them all drawn differently. I'm personally far more fond of the more catlike renditions of Umbreon.
Shadoo
MemberI'll just add this one in. All Eeveelutions are based on the Fennec fox. As such, I myself do consider all as canines. Even the majestic kitty Espeon.
Genjar
Former StaffGood eye. According to Sugimori, they're based on cabbits. Which is pretty obvious from the official art. Cabbits were popular in Japanese media back when the first gen was released. ...don't see them much in anime/manga nowadays, though.

Memberarn't foxes more closely related to cats though?
Crystali Cast
MemberNo, but it's been said that foxes, while canids, behave more similarly to cats.
