 		Appearances
 
+%p
+	These are the various appearances we've seen for this pet! We've hand-labeled
+	them by their emotion and their gender expression, as best we can.
+
+%p
+	If you've seen another kind of #{@pet_type.human_name}, you can enter its
+	name on the homepage to show us! Thank you 💖

+- if @pet_states[:canonical].any?(&:glitched?)
+	%p
+		Some of these appearances are marked as "glitched", but it's still the
+		best sample we have. If someone models an unglitched alternative for us,
+		we'll use that instead!
