I got the pink gorilla from the camp store at a camp I used to be a counselor at. Whenever a child got homesick, I’d let them care for it for awhile. The kids all loved it and it helped make the camp session special! It was the group mascot lol.
I still have the plush. Wish I still had the code, but it was on an old account from like 2014.
I only have 2 pets and i never have gotten a webkinz stuffed animal and i never will :(
Aww, don’t be so sure! You never know, even if you don’t buy online you might find one at a thrift store, garage sale, or shop, especially if you don’t mind them not having a code. Just because they’re not being manufactured doesn’t mean they don’t exist. I bet you can find a Webkinz stuffed animal; don’t give up!
My granddaughter bought me my first webkinz so we could play games on line!! It was our special thing. I keep playing and collecting because Webkinz NEVER got boring!!!! The creativity level is fantastic-where do all the great ideas come from??? Talented people at webkinz and players!! You keep making it fun over and over again! Fun for all of us at every age! THANK YOU!!
Agreed! I’m now in my 20s and still play. My future children will be inheriting my extensive account, too. :)
My granddaughters gave me my first Webkinz for my birthday many years ago so I could visit their houses with them. Now they are college students with other interests, but I still collect plush Webkinz and play almost every day. Now I have another granddaughter, living in another state, who is just learning to play on-line with me!
Our niece got my husband and I into playing Webkinz in 2008. She is now a junior at St. Mary’s University, we retired in 2018. We continue to play for the brain exercises. Thanks Webkinz for providing future artists, movie directors, fashion, interior, and landscape designers with a safe place to practice their skills.
My husband’s 1st pet was the turtle which he named “FishQ” (Questmonger). When he had been hospitalized when younger he had been given a stuffed turtle. He drew FishQ with a red baseball cap. Now he could animate FishQ and add a red baseball cap to his wardrobe. Remember when Ganz sold clothing for the critters?
Again, Thanks Team!

Perhaps some day your sister will begin to enjoy Webkinz with you once again! I certainly hope so!
Yeah it’s much better when you someone to share your love of Webkinz with in person. Perhaps now that she’s older than she was the age difference won’t seem so drastic and she’ll be able to enjoy it too!
The post by netge is absolutely the best and most endearing that I have ever read. Thank you netge for sharing your history with us! Webkinz is a wonderful place for everyone to enjoy.
I totally agree!
Thank you, that is really kind of you both to say so.
I am the same. I am all grown up but love my Webkinz. Stuffed animals have always been my friends too and Webkinz brings it to the next level. I LOVE WEBKINZ!
Webkinz has changed my life because when each of my siblings were born, we each got a Webkinz plush. Mine was a Koala, some of my sibling’s were the Bulldog, Poodle, Buffalo, Eagle, and the Black and White Cat. This was the first plush I ever had in my life. I have played for 4-5 years, once with the Koala and now with 4 different accounts. Without Webkinz, I wouldn’t be typing this right now.
I started playing Webkinz back in 2008 when I bought a Webkinz Raccoon at Universal Studios Florida, as I collect Raccoons and thought he was sweet. I didn’t really appreciate what Webkinz was when I bought him so I registered him online and started playing. From then I was hooked and each time we visited Florida, which was quite often, I would buy more Webkinz to add to my family. As we live in the UK we could never buy them in the shops, so our visits to Florida would often involve us hunting down a particular pet I wanted to buy. I have played Webkinz almost every day since that first day and now it is very important to me, because 5 years ago I had a health issue that resulted in a major operation that left me disabled and I am now mostly housebound. So much of my day is spent with my Webkinz pets, they bring me joy, the kindness and generosity of other Webkinz players means so much to me and I feel like I am part of a huge family and not lonely. Having worked all my life and now being retirement age, it is a hobby I love and can see me playing for as long as I am able. Thank you to all the wonderful people at Webkinz and the other pet owners for brightening my life so much.
I too started playing Webkinz in 2007 when I had surgery. My grandchildren gave me my first pet (Black & White cat) so we could play online long distance. I have played almost every single day since. I now have well over 500 pets. The first round of grandkids are in college now as well and I am waiting til the next group become interested. I fully understand the happiness Webkinz brings. The challenges are fun and good for the brain. I am now 70 and look forward to seeing them all. They have come a long, long way since the early days! I can’t express my appreciation to the staff for all their imaginative and innovative ways as they continue to create more and more fun! Thanks to Webkinz and I hope you continue playing for many, many years to come.
i would love to be your friend in webkinz world! My username is Ultrasonic3. I have a sense now of what it must feel like to be homebound since this pandemic and I just love my new “family” here.
Hi Ultrasonic3, I would love to be your friend, I’ll try to send you friend requests from my two accounts – netg and netg2, sometimes the phones won’t work, but I’ll try to send them when they do. Thanks netge
Hi netg! Now that I know you have two accounts, I will send you a friend request to the other one. Thanks for your help with challenges over the years.
I have the pink poodle too. Your real cat is so funny. What is its name? I have a cat too. His name is butterscotch.
