Wow! What a fantastic response to our pet design contest! We had over 3,000 entries and as always it was tricky narrowing the list down. Because it was so difficult to choose, in honor of Webkinz’ 15th anniversary this year, we decided to select 15 finalists!
Now we want to hear what you think! The winning pet will be sold in Ganz eStore starting on Webkinz Day, April 29, 2020.
As always, we look at concepts that we believe would be a great fit for Webkinz World. We are not judging the entries based on artistic talent, but on ideas that we think would make great pets. Please keep that in mind when you make your selection. Whichever pet we select, the Webkinz art department will work their magic to make it fit the Webkinz style.
While the final decision is up to the Webkinz creative department, we will take your input in consideration when making our final choice. Check out the 15 finalists and let us know in the comments below which one is YOUR favorite.

The tanuki and the cotton candy capybara are so adorable <3
I posted first golden peacock. However, I can not win, so congrats. It and baby sloth are my favourites.
I really love your style, @behe123! I checked a lot of your designs as my favorites. I LOVED your “Puss in Boots” (but there may have been a copyright issue – but I would have bought that in an instant!), and I want all of your adorable cubs, particularly that precious white bengal tiger cub! Keep designing because I think that you are really good!
Thank you! You are very kind
behe123, I loved your white egret. I had my eye on that one.
Thank you
Oh my! I would love to have any of these wonderful pet ideas – how could I ever choose just one. Contests like this remind me that we have so many creative and talented members in our Webkinz community. Congratulations to all the finalists!
Golden Peacock
I like the Stained Glass Turtle , the Patched giraffe , and The Golden Peacock
Aw, I thought my Monarch might’ve had a chance this time around. We’ll be back for the next one! My favourite of these is the Golden Peacock.
the cactus cat is ADORABLE! love it the most out of all these designs.
All of these designs are SO cute! My favorites (in the order they’re listed) are the Tanuki, Elkhound, and Cactus Cat. You all did such great work! :)
Congrats finalists!! I think the one i’d like to see as a webbie is the pangolin. Then there’s the tapir, the kudu, the capybara… Good job!
Bubble Googles, Stained Glass Turtle, and the Golden Peacock are my top 3. All of the designs are AMAZING! Congratulations to all of the finalists!
