TheWoWDBLooks like one of the elementals that gives you your first tour around Shatt.
Info from WarcraftPets:
The Kirin Tor Familiar is an arcane elemental that can be obtained from our favorite portable wizard pal, Archmage Vargoth (temp link until the Dalaran version of Vargoth is up). The catch is that you must complete the Higher Learning achievement before you can visit Vargoth in his secluded spire atop the Violet Citadel. The achievement entails reading 8 different books about arcane magic in Dalaran. The catch is that they are on 3 hour spawn timers and they share spawn points with nearly 30 other non-achievement books. As if the Scorchling wasn't frustratingly difficult enough to get already, Blizzard has to go and make another elemental pet to torment me... I mean, us!

This little guy will occasionally cast a series of arcane explosions for 3-4 seconds, with a rarity that seems similar to the little Murkey pulling out a top hat and dancing. The vfx and sounds are identical to those of a mage's arcane explosion.
According to WarcraftPets, this pet has a Rare battle pet rating.
