It’s me, Fiona, back for another round of fan mail! As always, for my past answers, click here! If you miss me, you can always head to KinzPost and send a letter or a package, and I’ll deliver it for you! Don’t forget, you can add me as a friend by going to KinzChat and adding Fiona Feathers (include the space!).
Sally or Fiona, me and my brother have designed our own webkinz because, we’ve noticed your relating webkinz. If we send In our drawing would you consider making them? sally or Fiona pleases answer! thank you! – Colliekinz
Thanks for your question, Colliekinz! While you’re always welcome to mail us your pet ideas or submit them to our ShareCenter, you might want to wait until the next pet design contest — we’ve had a few of them! Fans designed the Decade Dragon, Tigerlily Pup and Gargowl — who knows what they’ll come up with next!
I’ve asked a couple of times and so have other players, but every time it comes up Fiona and the other WKN staff always dodge the question and avoid giving a good answer: How do I get a job working for Webkinz? Is there an application I can fill out? – LeoGrimm
Well, LeoGrimm, most jobs in Webkinz World require that you reside in Kinzville… but if you’d like to get a job working for Ganz Studios (the creators of Webkinz World), you’ll have to watch the job boards for job postings and submit your resume and cover letter when you find a position that’s related to your skills. We are based out of Woodbridge, Ontario (just north of Toronto), so you’ll need to be based nearby, too. Good luck!
Hi Fiona! I doubt this will be answered but will there ever be an option to switch to the old Webkinz? I loved the original Website. – bagelbites660
Hi, bagelbites660… I’m sorry to say that there will not be any way to switch back to the old version of Webkinz World, especially not now. The old version of Webkinz World used very old code, which is not compatible with the technology being used to put Webkinz World on mobile devices. With Flash being discontinued, there would be nothing to keep that site going, even if it still existed somewhere.

I LOVED THE 2ND QUESTION!!!!!!!
i would like to know why monthly meal repeats itself from time to time, since there are still so many items of this kind never been seen as monthly meal.
When the Webkinz site is gone in 2020 and there is only a mobile app for Webkinz, what features will still be part of Webkinz and what will be gone? What is Ganz working on transferring to the app and what things to do and features might not make the transition?
Would you guys ever consider adding a feature to WKN that allows us players to see replies on our comments? I know I’m not alone when I say that it can seem quite time-consuming to filter out all the pages of comments just to find out if you have a reply. This can be especially frustrating when the post has gotten many new comments since a player has posted theirs. I hope this helps give you guys some inspiration! Bye!!!
Maybe a message with a link sent to our email whenever someone replies. The link could take you directly to the post, or at least to the page it’s on. I know they do it on some sites, but they’re usually much larger sites with higher traffic, so they can afford it. I currently bookmark the page where I leave a comment, but if no one replies within 3-4 days, I delete the bookmark. Then I start wondering if anyone replied, so I go looking for the post again.
Thanks for finally answering my question! I’d also like to be able to resize or relocate rooms. When you have an account as long as I have, you’re bound to change your mind after a while.
I agree! I started my account when I was six, so my rooms were kind of crazy, with outdoors in the middle of several rooms. I’d like to move them all closer together and have a more organized house.
Dear Fiona – Are room items still being fixed? The mayor used to provide a list of repaired items after each maintenance and update but I have seen a list in a very long time. There are still so many broken items but yet Ganz has the time to keep creating so many new things. As awesome as the new items are, please, I would Love to have my old favorites working again.
Why does Amazing World not working?
Amazing World was cancelled many months ago. :-( It will not be coming back. :-(
What about MazinHamsters ?
Thank you for the answer
I have a question. Could Kinzville Academy prizes ever become tradeable, sendable, and sellable? For some it has become difficult to complete certain classes, like strength and agility, because of bugs in the game or maybe because of their computers or Internet. Others may have completed the classes multiple times and have duplicates of some of the prizes that they want to share, sell back, or trade for something else. Could this become possible in the near future? Also, I was wondering if the Kinzville Academy will be added to the mobile app or will it become discontinued in 2020 when Adobe Flash Player is discontinued?
If the Kinzville Academy is discontinued in 2020, it would be good to be able to get the prizes through trading with other users in the Trading Room.
We would all LOVE if you let us delete and move rooms!!! Will this ever be possible??
I hope that becomes possible eventually. Moving the location of doors on the walls would be really convenient too.
Deleting and moving rooms would be wonderful. I think Webkinz said that eventually will become possible in a previous Fiona Feathers post. It might be a few years before it is, though, since now Webkinz is working on moving features from the website to the mobile app before Flash is discontinued.
YES! FINALLY! Finally someone else said this, I have been waiting for years for there to be a delete room button.
Could we just get rid of doors altogether?? I do not use the doors I just bring up the map to go to rooms. I do not go to the room right next to the one I am in so I do not use them.
My question is: How does Ganz come up with new Webkinz pets every month? And how do they decide which pets get made into a plush? I’m interested in seeing the process of how a new Webkinz is created, especially the plush. I’d also love to see some concept drawings.
