Hello, lovely readers! It is I, Fiona Feathers, here with more of your questions received at the KinzPost! If you’re curious, I’ve also previously answered mail here. Now, what’s in the mailbag today?
Dear Webkinz,
What was the first Webkinz ever?
Your friend,
Sophia in Indiana
Great question, Sophia! I asked around for you and the answer is that there was no first Webkinz, there were actually a first SET of Webkinz. They were released in 2005: Golden Retriever, Black Bear, Pig, Cow, Lion, Elephant, and Hippo. To learn more, give the “A Brief History of Webkinz” episode of Podkinz a listen here (or on iTunes)!
Dear Webkinz,
The Tigerlily Pup is AWESOME! I love its colors. When can I adopt one for my own?
Love,
Emma in Arizona
Hi, Emma! I completely agree with you, the Tigerlily Pup is one cute pet! Lucky for all of us, you can adopt them in the W Shop beginning June 4. Not much longer to wait!
Dear Webkinz,
Most Webkinz have different prints like Hawaiian, floral or just any really cool ones. How do you figure out what prints you put on your animals?
Sincerely,
Jada in Utah
What a cool question! The Plush department at Ganz comes up with different plush designs based on fabric prints they come across that they really love. Sometimes these prints help them decide which pet to make; for instance, the Aloha Dolphin is made from a bright and festival tropical flower print, which just makes sense, doesn’t it? But of course, the Plush designers always make sure they love the print before they decide to make a pet with it — that way every Webkinz is a cuddly collectible that fans will love, too!

^-^ Erbody here got good reasons to love me, right? xD
When might we see some new Ganz Rewards on Webkinz News? I have lots of points to spend. I’ve already bought enough of everything currently available & I would love to spend some more points on something new.
i would like to know more about the stadium/classes connection. also, is it possible to have maybe micro-mini events where some of us more normal folks could have a chance of winning? these things with 20 pets take forever to get started and i’m never in the top five. also what are the cooking and grooming classes for? do they also help with stadium events? thx!
could we possibly earn estore points with the jobs at the employment office?
That is a great suggestion! I can’t buy e-store points, so I can’t get any of the wonderful new pets and items from the e-store. I hope that Ganz comes out with a way for normal Webkinz members to earn points soon! Just as CrazyCatCrib said, the employment office would be an ideal place.
That would be very wonderful but Estore points you usually have to buy with money…and if you got enought for a pet it would mean that you get the pet for free sorta…and the only time they gave out a free pet (I think) is the Hopping Bunny Promotion. But hopefully there will be some easier way to get Estore Points!
Webkinz is a free website. And most free Websites have things like this were you have to pay for online money with real money, or pay to be something like a deluxe member. I think that Webkinz will always be stressing this. SO DON’T LET IT GET TO YOU.
Agreed!
That would be a cool idea but it should only be like 50-100 points if you do a good job. They shouldn’t make it too easy since they are selling e-store points.
yeah. that would be just right. that way, if you’re poor like me, you could save up your points to get something once in a while that you couldn’t ever get otherwise.
Or if you cant buy them Regular members shoud get them monthly to, But like 100 or 50 every month. But the problem is you need to lower the pets prices a bit on the W shop. They are a lot of e store points and not to many people’s parents buy stuff like that. Again just a helpful tip ~SMHbffs123~ :)
I so agree I only have 2,000 want more bad!!!!!!
thanks Fiona! Here’s a Wednesday question for you: WHEN WILL FISH BE ABLE TO WEAR CLOTHES ON THEIR LOWER HALF? We all would LOVE some dresses, skirts, pants, shorts, skorts, sox, shoes, heels, and and and for our FISH Fashionistas!
Oh yeah, and why cant we where belt and skirts?!? IT WOULD BE ADORABLE WITH WINGS OR SOMETHING AND A SKIRT
THANK YOU!!!! I agree. I want to be able to wear belts with skirts/dresses, and I would like my fish to be able to wear dresses and skirts. I’m glad I’m not the only one who wants this.
Absolutely, the first time I bought a fish and found out you couldn’t completely clothe them I was so disappointed.
Hello 50ish!!! It is i, Rabbit1, & I totally agree with you :) . Ganz, please check out Webkinz Insiders Ideas for Ganz section. This is just one of the ideas we all have for you. Thanks! ~<3~
What if we could wear shirts and jackets over dresses? I think that would be cool.
Are you Rabbit1 on webkinz insider?
i love webkinz insider! its so cool that it tells you when rare items are in the curio shop.
Cool… I was also wondering how they choose the prints.
Lots of great information Fiona – thanks! I was wondering if you know or could find out what is the significance of the number 27 which appears on a few of the items in the automotive theme? Just curious….
Maybe it’s something like A113 from Pixar. Like one of there classrooms or something.
my building kit friend request for items is not working. My friends say they aren’t getting them to send me stuff …..help!
I have the same problem. I have several kits in progress and can not get any further.
its because your friends don’t really like to send you stuff or they don’t go on much. If you need some items for the kit, add me, user is lpetshops.
I like reading this letters. :D
Diddo!
What is ditto? everyone keeps saying it…. someone answer me plz! :)
ditto= same as was said before or, basically, I agree with what he said. ;)
Well, it means “same here”. It can also mean a duplicate or copy. It’s said instead of repeating something that’s just been said. It’s also a Pokémon. lol :D
it means i agree with that statement or same here or me to …………. i think
Ditto just means you agree with what the other person said.
Diddo is a word for “Me too” or “What he said”
Ditto means “I agree” or “me too” The person above wrote “I like reading this letters”; the next person likes the same thing so, instead of writing out the whole sentence, they say “ditto”.
Ditto means the same as “I agree” or “I feel the same way, too” Basically I think it means to agree strongly with what has already been said. Hope that helps a little! Anybody got a better way to explain it?
when you say “ditto” it means you want to say the same thing the person before you said. so when tuxeysnoopy2013 said ditto, they wanted to agree with Clau in saying that they really like reading the fan mail letters. hope this helped!!! ☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○ cinderheart ♥ lionblaze ☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○
etncpink, ditto is a poke’mon. Hope this answers your question ! :D
Ditto..more like….xD i is not saying
Ditto means “same”, so when someone says ditto, they mean I want to say the same thing. It’s an agreement of sort, like saying “yeah, me too”.
ditto means “same thing” or “exactly” in my definition. happy to help!
Ditto= What they said
Me too! I loved the original kinz’. :D Especially the Golden Retriever! I love the letters you pick out :D ~Ocean
Okay, I’m just commenting this because I couldn’t comment on it when it first came out: Ella: “Players have reported you have been known to steal stars without awarding the prize you had promised.” (Which she HAS, but never from me :) ) Nafaria: “I would NEVER do that…” Ella: “Nafaria, I can see your fingers are crossed. Are you lying?” And at this point I’m like, “Wait……… Nafaria doesn’t evem HAVE fingers. Her hands are like MITTENS. This is from “Exclusive Interveiw: Nafaria” if you guys wanna check it out yourselves.
I meant even not evem. ;p
I didn’t see this before.
so the tigerlily is for estore points ??
Yes. The only other way to get one would be to have been the creator of one of finalist pups.
oh thank you for answering my question
How do you know what the finalist pups are?:)
haha i have all of the original pets
