Critical reception
David Turner of The Fader highlighted the song "Control" as "a breezy seaside joyride built on slow builds and wavy echoes" and also praised Doja Cat's "spacey singing style" throughout the record. Briana Cheng of Dazed wrote that on "No Police", she "fiercely meows" and "sassily" raps and sings over a "mild" guitar riff as part of the "mollifying" beat, notably humming from the police sirens from Lil Wayne's 2008 single "Mrs. Officer". Petar Kujundzic of Hypebeast described Purrr! as "a fine list of bass-heavy, alternative R&B tracks" and highlighted the song "No Police" for "offering the best of her vocal and lyrical abilities". Writing for Illsociety, Kelly Hawkins praised Doja Cat's "brazen raps and airy vocals".
