Kinda reminds me of that rat “sidekick” in Comix Zone. Such a good little sidekick, flipping switches and finding items, even stunning some enemies if I remember correctly.

This should be a feature in every game.

I always played Lawful Neutral mages in Baldur’s Gate 2 because which familiar you summoned depended on alignment, and LN got a snarky ferret companion.
I wish the feature was more fleshed out - familiars didn’t react to narrative events and you could run through his entire dialog tree in about two minutes. There are thousands of mods for BG2; surely one of them expands the familiar system?
And Divinity: Original Sin 2 had a squirrel riding a skeletal cat that was pretty awesome, though I think it was a preorder bonus.
