NeoPets of the Future

by Tara Friesen

Have you ever wondered what NeoPets will be like in about 2006? Well, here is what I think it will be like...in 2006.

NeoPets in 2006 will be a HUGE fad. TONS of kids and adults will play NeoPets, and there will be shirts, candy, and other things in many stores that have NeoPets on them. That will be wonderful for people all over the planet.

You can adopt a pet, clothe it, then send it to a school. You can choose either a private school which costs 10,000 NP per school year, or a public school that makes you buy all your pets supplies from the School Shop. There will be "restaurants" that you can take your pet to, order its meal, and watch it eat, then pay the bill and go home to your little house in the Neopian Village, Mystery Island Village, Space Station Village, Maraqua Village, etc.

At home, your pet might play NeoPets on the computer, play with you or its brothers and sisters, or take a nap. You can send your pet its own Neomails and teach it about you, and talk to it if you have a microphone. If you are really lucky, your NeoPet might just call you sometime! Or even show up at your house.

There also are bills. Each month, you will get a letter in your Neomail Box that you must pay for. The bills you need to pay are electricity, water, heating, and phone. If your pet is into politics, however, you just might not have to pay those bills every month.

Also, the poor of Neopia can stay at the Neopian Safehouse for as long as they like, but when they get richer, they have to pay the Safehouse a small fee. Rich Neopians can choose home, like a mansion or a condo or a penthouse, but the house payments are larger when you own a mansion. The rich can also donate to the Safehouse, either NP, food, clothes, toys or cheap items. Well, this is NeoPets in 2006. See ya then, because I'll still be playing!!!
