Hoo-hoo Kinzville! It’s me, your mayor—Dr. Quincy Quack! I’m here again to tell you all about what’s new in Webkinz World today! Let get started, shall we?
- There’s something NEW for players just joining Webkinz! After creating an account, new players will visit an Adoption Center Clubhouse room, complete with Ms. Birdy! Along with a new tutorial, they will receive their choice from 1 of 3 themed rooms to help them get started! Also, the pet gift boxes will now be awarded once the player completes a simple pet request.
- Look for some NEW prizes the next time you take your pet for recess at the Kinzville Academy! You’ll find a new assortment with each activity, just waiting to be won! You might also find some fun new food items in your packed lunch afterwards! For more information, check out our earlier Webkinz Newz articles about the New Merry Go Round Prize, the New Buried Treasure Prizes, and the New Recess Food!
- A new Acorn Collection Event is coming to Webkinz World September 1st and runs until September 30th! Visit your map of Kinzville during those dates and click the acorn collection icon. You can then send daily requests to your friends for acorns! When you collect each milestone amount of acorns, you’ll win a prize! You can check out what you’ll win this year in our earlier Webkinz Newz sneak peek story!

Well now, this sure was fun! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz for more exciting announcements!
Take care, Kinzville!
I have also looked through quite a lot of the comments and many others agree that this new dock is very frustrating and difficult, and I do agree that you should change the dock back to how it was before.
agree. very frustrating and time consuming.

I don’t mean to be rude but I really don’t care for how all of our items are in alphabetical order. It’s nice but when I go to décor it’s like I have to go through it a hundred times to fine all my walls or flooring. How you had it before was especially nice for trading because I knew where everything .Sincerely FlowersForMom
Just curious? What was the reasoning behind putting everything in alphabetical order?
I cannot find my September gift box. Is this because it is now somewhere alphabetically and no longer in the “new” section of the dock? Looked but did not see it anywhere. Thanks for advice!
Hello Dr. Quack and Sally Webkinz! Speaking of adoptions and docks in this announcement, I have a suggestion to make about our Pet Adoption Gift Boxes. My dock is full of unopened gift boxes! Why? because they’re so beautiful and once you open it, it’s gone forever. Someone there at Ganz creates them so intently, can we some how get a bigger than dock size remembrance Gift Box pictured in our pet’s bio page? I tried screen shots of the boxes in my dock but it’s so small to really appreciate the detail on them. Would Ms. Birdy consider including the gift box memory pic on our pet’s bio? Also it would be awesome to also inlude the name and pic of our pet’s PSF, it’s hard for me to find it quickly in the W Shop to feed it to them. It would be easier to just pull up the bio to see what it is (this is especially helpful for those who have a lot of pets on their account). Thanks so much for considering this, it would be great if that was added! Same goes for all my holiday gift boxes and baskets, most not opened.
Great ideas, EmeraldCity—i agree with all of your suggestions, and I have often thought the same thing about the gorgeous gift boxes, identifying the pets’ PSF, and the gift box memory pic! Awesome suggestions, and I hope Ganz uses your ideas in the future.
Many players agree with you about the gift boxes (including me!) & we’ve been requesting to be able to have them for room decor for years & years & years. You are right the art is always so good & they go away forever when you open them. Webkinz Artists, we really appreciate your work, can the boxes be remade as room items?
Thanks animalsmatter1 and 1Emerald1!!! I’m sure if we all feel this way then probably most the players out there do too! I hope Ganz saw our suggestions here. :)
isnt that the whole point of the a-z tab to sort items by name not set
I wish they would fix the haunted toilets. They only show as a square on the floor – the toilets are still invisible.
Have you checked recently? This should have been fixed with the last maintenance.
Hey so I don’t have the deluxe gift box, but i’m deluxe so…
Please contact ganzestorecs@ganz.com
Sometimes mine don’t show up until the 2nd of the month, only once in awhile though.
I didn’t get mine either.
NOOOOOO!!!!!!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO THE DOCK????!!!!!! I have been working hard over the last several months moving things from one account to another ( I have a few “extra” accounts – okay, some are my sister’s but she doesn’t play anymore) and I put all winter items in one, summer in another… and I had a system and now it is all messed up!!!!!!!!!!!! Why oh why does Ganz keep messing with things that are not broken and not do the things players ask for (like moving rooms – I have seen that request soooo often although I would rather have the ability to either delete or change the size of the room, even if it costs – small and medium rooms are a waste of space)
