The find familiar spell can summon a pink fairy armadillo. Keen Smell. The pink fairy armadillo has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell. ACTIONS Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +2 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 1 slashing damage. Curl Up. After the pink fairy armadillo takes the Dodge action, until the start of its next turn it cannot be reduced below 1 hit point by an attack, unless the attack deals at least 5 damage in one hit. It loses this benefit early if it takes any other action, or moves in any direction except directly down a slope. REACTIONS Burrowing Dodge. When the pink fairy armadillo is hit by a melee attack from a creature it can see, and the armadillo is on sand or loose soil, it can use its reaction to Dodge, potentially turning the hit into a miss. After the armadillo uses this reaction, until the end of its next turn it can't move or take any other actions.

Source This rare species of armadillo stands out with a bright peach coloration, which is surprisingly effective at blending into the desert sands it calls home. One is about 4 inches long, and just small enough to fit in a pocket.  Despite being quite fragile, a pink fairy armadillo will do just about anything to survive in its harsh desert home. They're content eating everything from bugs to plants to slugs. While armadillos are known for curling into a ball, a pink fairy takes this a step further — its defense mechanism involves burrowing partially underground in a flash, leaving only its tough armor-like backside exposed.  This critter's resourcefulness and bright colors make for an impressive familiar.
