A sight once so rarely seen, these large, sloth-like friends have long since been thought to be a myth, but it appears a community of them have emerged from their underground, mountainous homes - and burrowed their way right out into Moderneopets!

Diregos are an old species, dating back to prehistory, though sightings of them have dwindled into obscurity. It was once said that to spot a Dirego was a bad omen, for surely disaster would follow them soon after.

These lovable sloths, however, would love nothing more than to burrow away in their mountains looking for gems to decorate their manes with - blissfully ignoring the strange and dire coincidences that seem to occur around them. Perhaps these once-elusive fluffballs being adopted by a loving owner will finally turn their unfortunate reputation around?

You can create your fluffball friend right now at create a pet! If you're lacking in pet slots then we have you covered with some basic Dirego Morphing potions - now stocking at Kauvaras!



These cute, aloof fluffballs were a creation of our amazing user Taffer!
They have graciously decided to bless Moderneo with their adorable sloth omens, lets just hope the curse doesn't affect us, shall we? xD

To top this celebration off, lets here a quote from their creator:

Short, sweet and to the point.
You should waste no more time, get to adopting one now!



If you cannot adopt one right now, and want your own fluffy visage of the Dirego, don't fret! Plushie palace will be stocking their basic likeness from this point on, so feel free to grab some plushies of your own!

Maybe you can console him or just give him some company for a while?
I'm sure he'd appreciate it!

It's just a plushie, there's no way it'll appreciate anything...unless....

Apparently the noise didn't come from Neopia... It came from Kreludor!
A meteor has crashed into Kreludor, which is nothing new, but this one seems...strange.

It's also one of the few meteors that is large in size...
Before this ominous and strange meteor gets locked away in some facility or cordoned off maybe you should take a peek?


Though you should be careful, there could be all sorts of dangers lurking within...
Find the link to the Meteor Daily in Pet Central and test your luck now!

It's time to get your ugg on, with this new fluffy friend!
Unreleased to Neopets but not on here, meet the Tyrannian Xweetok.
But that's not all...



Floats down from Faerieland to say hello!
Another unreleased pet from Neopets joins the fray, almost as fluffy as the first!
Hope you enjoy our two "new" additions.

Thank you to user Under for finding all the poses for me.

We're updated the rules, clarified some things further, updated the CSS rules guidelines to be more lax and went into further information about our policy on the kind of language that's acceptable on Moderneopets.

Hope this clears up some questions you may have had, and we'll be looking into more clarifications and changes to it later.

Faerieland's doors open yet again! The Faerieland Employment Agency has launched with plenty of requests for owners and their Neopets to complete for rewards. Some rewards are more generous than others, and some jobs require special coupons that you can get around the site.


Since our Employment Agency works a bit different from normal Neopets, we've made a handy Differences page that you can access whilst you're there, which will explain the ins and outs of our system for you.

We hope you have fun making all the Neopoints, and good luck on your jobs!

To celebrate Ginko day, we're releasing Ginko memorabilia! Thank to the creator of the Ginko, Under - we have a few items to drop off to you all... 16 plushies, 2 books and a toy! To make things better and to add the cherry on top - we've imbued 6 of those plushies with magic, so it'll be even easier to get your very own Ginko in some nice colours now.

Wondering what shop stocks what? Well thankfully on the shops page the icon shows the newest stocked item, so that should help you find your Ginko fix. Want to see the majority of the items added? Search Ginko using our search and you'll see all the plushies and more Ginko themed items.
