It’s me, Fiona, back for another round of fan mail! As always, for my past answers, click here!
Hi Fiona, will the Webkinz with the stringy hair ever be made again? Thanks! – yungfoo
Bless you heart, those stringy furred Webkinz pets were something special, weren’t they? While it’s definitely possible that some stringy fur may be used, most of the new pets being designed now are leaning to the more realistic — well, except for pets like the Enchanted Giraffe, but you get the picture.
Hi Fiona, I was wondering about the WKF Domino Effect Rug that you can buy with our moneyz…does it move like dominos?? – kiwikat
Thanks for your question, kiwikat! This rug was based on the Domino Cat’s pet specific item — the Domino Effect Area Rug. In both cases, it’s referring to the two-tone color scheme — the rug doesn’t do anything other than cover the floor. Do you have any room designs planned that use this rug?
Dear Fiona, why are all the prizes we get on Webkinz Newz now unsendable, untradable, and unsellable? I know that some people might take advantage of getting extra prizes, but it stinks for people who missed the prize and would only be able to get it through trading or sending. As for selling, it really makes a clutter in the dock if you decide you do not want the prize. Will this always be the case from now on? — winterwarriorwolf
Hi, winterwarriorwolf! Most of the prizes we’ve been giving out recently are super valuable and were originally only available from Ganz eStore. Anything that has ever been sold at Ganz eStore is going to be untradeable/unsellable/unKinzPostable. (That’s not counting stuff inside mystery boxes, or promo items, of course.) We’re starting to move away from having to click a link to get the prize, though, so we can give players a little more time to redeem them — look for more Community Codes in future. While it won’t solve the trading problem, it will make it a little easier for more people to get the prize.
Have more questions? Ask them below and you might be featured in the next edition of Fan Mail with Fiona!
Hi Fiona! I know that we have at least 1 Mole in Webkinz World (Boris), but was shocked when looking through a list of possible pets to see that we haven’t had a pet Mole available at all. I was wondering if you could ask the design team if they had any plans of making virtual Mole pet available? I have a perfect name for one if they ever do. Thanks in advance. – Spiderhulkman
Hey Fiona, I understand why the Signature line was discontinued, but what about the other lines (Delightz, Lil Kinz, Rockerz, etc.) Why were they stopped? And will there be any new lines of pets? Please read my question.
Dear Fiona, I just want to say thank you for reading and answering our questions. Sometimes when my pet is sleeping and their energy meter is almost full, I click on the pet. All of a sudden, the meter will be full. Then it will slowly shrink down until it’s empty. Do you know if this could be fixed? Thanks.
Fiona I have a problem with some of my pets hats? Some items caps go on half their head or cover their eyes? Will this be fixed? Also Why do some of my pets take -up so much care and others reach their care heart fast?
Hey Fiona! I was wondering, is Ganz going to be making more prizes to buy for the mobile zone any time soon? They have not had any new ones in a wile. Thanks!
Congratulations to all who had their questions answered! Thank you for all your hard work, Fiona! I love all of the Webkinz pets…but it would be wonderful to see one or two with stringy fur again! Memories…haha! Wonderful round of fan mail! :)
Yess stringy fur!! You should make a new googles with the old stringy fur! I actually like the new fur better because like you said it’s more realistic and its softer, but it would be so cool to bring it back for a few pets.
The floating coins you can click on that say you can sell them at the wshop … when you try to sell them at the wshop it says they cannot be sold. What am I doing wrong?
They’re gift boxes… Drop them in your room, and It will gave you a coin. Sell the coin to the W-shop. :)
Have you been dragging and dropping the coin box into your room first? Cause that how you have to do it because at first its a giftbox.
I had the same exact problem! A very helpful WW player pointed me in the right direction. First, drag the bronze, gold or silver gift box into a room in your house, and then sell the 50, 250, or 100 KC coins to the W-shop. I really hope this helps, ~socer10, as it has for me. I am now raking in TONS of KC every day!
Dear Fiona. In response to the community challenge code/s, I see no difference between having to click to get the prize or getting code/s. Webkinz still only post the community code/s for the one day (you may be able to redeem the code/s longer) but you still have to be there the day of to get the code/s before the post is taken down. Once the code/s are taken down there is no way to get them, even if they are good for a longer time, unless you have a real friend or family member on webkinz (not one that you only know on Webkinz or Webkinz newz) that can give you the codes, because as far as I know we are not allowed to post codes, so either way click or code/s you still have to be here the day of if you want the prize.

sounds like their trying to make signatures without actually making them. in my opinion, just leave it. the signatures can’t be replaced and to tell the truth you’re just ruining the regulars. it was your decision to stop the signatures. sorry if this offended any one I’m just sick of these new webkinz they aren’t really even webkinz anymore. the stringy fur was sort of a trademark like the magic w.
I was not offended at your comment, and hope that I do not offend you with mine. I like that webkinz let’s us voice our opinions, and everyone has a right to their own. I just happen to disagree with yours, I totally do not like the stringy pets, as a matter of fact when I first saw them I did not buy any. It was not until I saw the smooth animals that I got hooked. I do have some stringy pets now but only because I got them for cheap, and do not plan on keeping the plush once the codes are used. I just wanted to let you known that there are some of us who prefer the smooth pets.
