Perry is the Australian pet platypus of Phineas and Ferb, who was domesticated in America. Unbeknownst to his owners, he lives a double life as a secret agent for the O.W.C.A. (The Organization Without a Cool Acronym a.k.a. "The Agency"). It's a secret spy organization that employs animal spies. In the Agency, Perry's immediate superior is Major Monogram. While undercover, he can normally be found with his owners. As their pet, Perry lives up to the expectations for a platypus and "doesn't do much." Yet, he still shows signs of intelligence when he's pretending to be a normal pet. Perry is also serious while on duty as an agent, even in front of his supervisor when he does anything silly or makes fun of something. Because of his serious nature, he rarely expresses happy emotions, but he'll smile on some occasions. Perry is selfless and devoid of vanity. He's nice to his allies and is kind to his nemesis on some occasions. More than anything, Perry deeply cares about the Flynn-Fletcher family and is afraid to lose them. As such, he'll take immediate action whenever they're threatened. According to Dan Povenmire, Perry is asexual.

i learned that the Platypus stands out as one of the most unique and intriguing animals globally, brimming with contradictions and surprising features. Here are some astonishing contradictions and exceptional traits that will surely blow your mind:
It is a mammal, yet it lays eggs. This contrasts with the common expectation that mammals give birth to live young.
It produces milk to nurse its puggles (young platypuses) after hatching, yet it has no nipples. The milk is secreted through pores in the skin, and the puggles lap it up from the mother's belly.
Its digestive system is truly distinct, lacking a stomach and also teeth. Instead, it utilizes gastroliths (small stones) in its gizzard to aid in breaking down food.
Displaying a duck-like bill, a trait typically associated with birds, it's equipped with sensors to detect electrical signals from its prey. This feature is unparalleled among mammals.
The male platypus possesses venomous spurs on its hind legs, reminiscent of a reptilian trait.
Despite its semi-aquatic nature, it boasts webbed feet ideal for swimming like aquatic animals, alongside strong claws suited for burrow-digging for land-based living.
Employing both echolocation (sound-based navigation) and electrolocation (detecting electrical fields generated by muscle contractions in prey), it adeptly hunts underwater. This remarkable ability allows it to hunt without relying on eyes, ears, or smell.
As a monotreme, it has a single opening for the digestive, urinary, and genital organs, whereas in other species these organs are separate.
What a weird animal. It's so weird that it's hilarious that when the first specimen was sent to England about 200 years ago, British scientists initially believed it to be a hoax, suspecting that someone had combined the beak of a duck with the body of an otter or beaver.
