Spooky Companions: A Guide for the Intrepid Neopian

The daunting task of selecting a Petpet for your Neopet can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be! Many owners lean towards the fluffiest and cutest Petpets on the market.

I challenge you to put aside your preferences and biases for a short time and look past the sliminess and eeriness that many Neopians shun.
