10 Not-so-Sweet Treats for Valentine’s Day!


by kittycrew

--------

Valentine’s Day is near and if you are looking for a gift that is more original than your standard sweet, edible treats then we are here to help! Check out the items below for some creative gift ideas for your Neopet this Month of Awakening! We cannot guarantee perfection but we can guarantee these items will be fun, maybe a little practical, maybe a little noisy, maybe even a little silly but definitely not edible (Well, for most Neopets… We love our Skeith and Grarrl friends, too!). p>     *drum-roll* Here we go:p>     Starting off strong with the elusive but adorable Kacheek Valentine Stapler. Not only can your Neopet use this for creating their very own valentines but they can also use it in their Neohome office or add it to their school supplies. From the Kacheek’s cheerful disposition to the on-theme heart detail this is the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for your pet. …Well, if you can find one. It’s a tough market out there for this perfectly designed stapler. p>     Next up we have this slightly sad, not-so-sweet Ripped Valentines Chia Plushie! This Plushie will be the perfect addition to your Neopet’s Plushie collection and will remind them of this special day all year long. In the Month of Awakening this Plushie will be there, in the Month of Eating they will be there… in the Month of—sigh—you get the point. This plushie will be there rejected and frowning all year long. A perfectly, imperfect, not-so-sweet Valentine’s Day gift for any Neopet.p>     It’s time to add some sparkle to your Neopet’s life! This Silver Valentines Ring is sure to add some shine to any lucky Neopet’s life but will surely not be a very sweet treat to eat. Unless you’re a Skeith… or maybe a Grarrl… but for most this sparkly, silver heart-shaped ring will not be a sweet treat to devour on this special Valentine’s Day hour. p>     Here’s a super special gift for any Neopet that does not enjoy giving or receiving hugs. We cannot forget the one and only Shoulder Blades Valentines Cape that is one of my neopet’s favorite NC mall items to wear. If your Neopet dons this attire they will be sure to get straight to the point when in close proximity to others - don’t like hugs, high-fives or sharing your personal space? Then do not fear; the Shoulder Blades Valentines Cape is here! Note: Please proceed with caution when gifting to your Neopet if they request grooming frequently. The author of this Neopian Times article is not liable for any pokes or prods that may occur when your Neopet models their new look. p>     La la la la… What was that?! Oh so sorry! I did not hear you while I was using this fabulous Valentine Guitar! That’s right! We are adding an instrument to our quickly growing not-so-sweet treat Valentine’s Day gift list! Another idea for a less-than-sweet and tasty treat to give your Neopet on this day. With its red and heart-shaped detailing this guitar is sure to steal the show! Your pet will enjoy strumming a tune on their new guitar and may even discover a new talent along the way! Hooray! A note of caution: If your Neopet has not played an instrument before you may want to gift yourself and your other Neopets a pair of Noise Cancelling Headphones. One quick search on the Shop Wizard and this guitar and several pairs of headphones can be yours! p>     No Valentine’s Day would be complete without suggesting the one and only Valentine Paint Brush! If your Neopet loves this holiday this may be the perfect look for them. They can sport a Valentine’s Day themed look all year long! This paint brush was only recently released iKJUUUÓHGGGFFDDAADCn 2023 and can be found at your local, neighborhood Hidden Tower if your account is four months old or older. p>     What does everyone Neopet love even more than sweet treats on Valentine’s Day?! You guessed it! Their very own Petpet to play with and care for! Let’s give the gift of responsibility this holiday! I present the Valentine Rock! At first glance this Petpet may appear to be a tasty, sweet treat however, they are not! They are a beloved Petpet for your Neopet painted with a Valentine Petpet Paint Brush at the Hidden Tower. If you do not have time or Neopoints in your budget for a Petite Paint Brush that’s okay! You can find a Rock Petpet that is already painted this on theme colour at the new and improved Trading Post this Month of Awakening! p>     We are quickly coming to the end of our list and this lovely Valentines Pillow is offering a soft spot to lay your head for quick rest at number 8 on our list. Another non-edible, unsweetened treat to gift your Neopet this Valentine’s Day, this pillow still offers the fun of the holiday with its unique heart shape and colourful appearance. This is an item that your Neopet can use all year long to rest after adventures around Neopia or after a long day of training at the Mystery Island Training School. p>     Next on our list is this fabulous Valentines Shampoo Bottle. Not only is this a lovely heart-shaped bottle but the description says the soap inside feels like velvet! How wonderful! This gift is sure to please any Neopet that is looking for something practical that they can use and is a great way to show them that you care on this special holiday! p>     If your Neopet prefers something a littler sillier than sweet then with this gift they are definitely in for a treat! The Valentine Clown Makeup may be a good fit for them and they may enjoy wearing it on Valentine’s Day or beyond! It is a fun way to try out a different customization look for this holiday. Can’t find it in the NC Mall? Do not fret! Check with your fellow Neopians on the NC Trading Neoboard. They may be able to help you secure this perfect not-so-sweet Valentine’s Day gift just in time to celebrate!p>     Bonus gift idea: If you are looking for something to send your Neofriend this holiday then you may want to consider sending them A Mysterious Valentines Card. If you have not sent this special card on February 14th and you send it to a Neofriend that has never sent or received this mysterious card on February 14th then you will both receive the lovely Valentines Day site theme! p>     That is all for now! Thank you for reading and we hope that you have a lovely Valentine's Day! Happy gift shopping, Neopians!
