I like the top row of cats the best, 1,2,3, and 6 in particular.
For the second row just #4
In order, I'd rank them starting with my favorite going 1,2,6,4b,3
I think if you adjust the red hair a little, it could be my favorite though, maybe some texture of a darker second shade of red in the hair.
For EDC, well the dessert might be dangerous, so maybe a kusarigama... but its also hot, so definitely gonna need their big stanley cup, and a fine hairbrush to keep all the dust and sand out of their beautiful hair. And walking all day through the desert could lead to heatstroke, so they could use a dirtbike or something to get around.
