How to Get Sick — and How to Feel Better

Getting sick is no fun. Frankly, neither is taking medicine even though you know it will make you feel better. There are many known bugs out there that can get your Neopet sick; some species have allergies that will get them sick as well. There are also many known cures with specific items to pick up at the Neopian Pharmacy, Lost Desert Medicine, or Remarkable Restoratives. You may also get lucky at the Healing Springs and get your active Neopet or all your Neopets cured. I will discuss both illnesses (so you can know to avoid certain things) and cures (in hopes of helping you care for your sick Neopet) in this handy guide! Getting Sick Allergies Most species can eat anything; however, there are a few that have a bit of a sensitive system and are allergic to the following: Kyriis are allergic to apples – any apple item will give them Itchy Scratchies. Skeiths are allergic to cheese – any cheese item will give them Neezles. Quiggles are allergic to cream – any cream item will give them Neezles. Tonus are allergic to neggs – any negg item will give them Neezles. Battledome Many items in the Battledome can be used against your Neopet to get them sick.
