After a fantastic round of submissions, an amazing shortlist of finalists and YOUR feedback, we are excited to announce the WINNER of our 2024 Pet Design Contest! This is the first time ever that we have held a Pet Design Contest for a pet that will appear in BOTH Classic and Next!
Because we want to make sure this adorable pet is absolutely perfect, we are actually moving the release date of the pet to AFTER Webkinz Day and releasing it later in May. But don’t worry – we will have some fun events starting on Webkinz Day and leading up to the release when you can purchase this sweet pet in game! Watch Webkinz Newz for more information about the release date. We promise it will be worth waiting for!
And without further ado, meet the pet that will be created in both Classic and Next!
Congratulations crazygrace! The Cotton Candy Raccoon is adorable!
Crazygrayce was kind enough to also include a PSI and PSF in their drawing! While these are fantastic ideas, we’d also love to get suggestions from the Webkinz community before we make the final decision on the PSI/PSF. Tell us, what do YOU think would make a fabulous food and item for this pet?
Crazygrayce and all the finaliststs can look for a message at the email account associated with their GanzWorld account by the end of this week.
Thank you to everyone who participated and a big CONGRATULATIONS to our winner and finalists!
Love the pet and everything that goes with it. It is adorable
Yayyyyyy!!! I am so excited!! this is the pet i voted for and i think it is sooooo cute:33 <3
YESSSSSSSSS i wanted a raccoon on next so bad i love the psi and the psf and their names so much and i also love the patch design but like other comments said it would be nice if the tree was a dispenser in both games and some name ideas for the food it dispenses i have are “cotton candy fluff” “cotton candy puff” “puff of cotton candy” or “cotton candy tree branch”
Congratulations crazygrayce
I like the PSF and PSI ideas in the post. I would REALLY love for a plush version of this pet though. Especially in the NEXT style. PLEASE make it happen
Oh, I love this one. I voted for this.
Congrats @crazygrayce! Your cotton candy raccoon is adorable! And I LOVE the cotton candy concoction ice cream float – I would love to enjoy one irl! I agree with many of the other comments that the PSI should be a dispenser, either as a tree, or as a fairground booth/cotton candy machine. (which would go so well with the fairground that I am slowly putting together with cool items like the ferris wheel.) The patch is so cute, but poses a dilemma as the pinktastic lion can give a cotton candy pet patch. Hmmmm… I don’t know how Ganz will solve this one. When I think of raccoons, I think of trash cans, from a memorable family vacation in a cabin by a lake, but I don’t think anyone will want trash can pet patches. LOL!
Ooooo… for a pet patch, you could do a mask – either like a masquerade ball mask, or a superhero mask – because raccoons are known as masked bandits! Then Ganz could do a whole Seasons theme of either masquerade ball items or superhero items. Imagine the possibilities…
The PSI is super cute! I think it would be even cuter if there was a hole in it so the raccoon could sit and hide in the tree!
That’d be so adorable!!
Oh how sweet– congratulations, crazygrayce, your racoon is adorable!!
OK for the Psi, keep the tree, but make it a dispenser and the dispenser should give us Cotton Candy and I know that everyone loves Cotton Candy like from fairs 7 Carnivals
