First of all – thank you again to everyone who entered our 2017 Pet Design Contest. We can’t say enough how difficult it has been to choose a winner. There were almost 900 amazing entries which we narrowed down to a list of ten wonderful finalists. We read your comments and we discussed it among our team.
We decided to go with a unique pet based on a real animal that we think will make a great addition to the Webkinz family. The adorable Axolotl by Taydarsauce is our winning design and will be available in the eStore starting on Webkinz Day 2017.

Congratulations to Taydarsauce who will receive a Pet Design Trophy, 1 Year of Deluxe, and a code for the Axolotl when it becomes available.
And congratulations to our 9 runners up and 1 honorable mention who will each receive 1 month of Deluxe. Look for a message at the email associated with your GanzWorld account by end of day tomorrow.
Please join us in congratulating Taydarsauce! And do you have suggestions for a PSI and PSF for the Axolotl? Taydarsauce made some suggestions that we will take into consideration but we would love to hear your ideas too. Let us know in the comments below.
This pet is so cute. I already like the PSF (Gummy Guppies) and the PSI (Lake Xochimilco) but I was wondering about a cookie for the PSF. You know like the design cookie contest cookies, the Calico Cat Cookie or Penguin Sugar Cookie.
Very cool looking pet. Congratulations Taydarsauce!
That is awesome! :) I love it.
AWESOME!! This is the second only to the Opossum <3
Woah, um…now thats a strange….but uniquely surrealistic pet in my opinion. I’ll still get a copy of him tho when its time. I think i wanna give him a scientific name :)
Oh my goodness!!!! I was so hoping this pet would win!!!!!!! I am so getting this pet! I would love to see a PSI of a mud puddle with a rock in the middle! And maybe a PSF of gummy fish. I love this baby salamander we call these guys “Mud Puppies” were I am from.
Congrats Taydarsauce!! :D
Isn’t the AXOLOTL from the Gravity Falls journals…?

Congratulations, Taydarsauce! Love, love, love this pet!!!
