Get a Lutari

Lutari are the mysterious habitants of Lutari Island, a now-defunct Neopian land connected to the also defunct Neopets Mobile service. The island seems to be doomed to remain shrouded in mist. Lutari mostly act like any other limited edition species these days, although they have their little quirks.

Create a Lutari

On Lutari Day (April 19th), and the day after (April 20th), you can obtain a Lutari through Create-A-Pet. This is the simplest and cheapest way to adopt one.

Morphing and Transmogrifying

You can create a Lutari any time using a magical potion on an existing pet. Kauvara has concocted several different morphing potions for you, and some strange entity has developed a transmogrification potion if you fancy a Mutant Lutari instead. Because Lutari are so rare, though, these potions tend to be fairly pricey.

Lutari Transmogrification Potion

Lutari Transmogrification Potion

A third type of potion, the Mysterious Swirly Potion, is supposed to transform your pet into any Limited Edition species. However, since the potion was released before Lutari were created, there are no confirmed reports of it working for Lutari.

Zapping a Lutari

The most difficult way to obtain a Lutari is via the lab ray. While obtaining the pieces of the secret laboratory map is likely to be cheaper than buying a Lutari Morphing Potion or Transmogrification Potion, it may take you a very long time to receive a Lutari zap, if you ever do.

Adopting or Transferring a Lutari

It is not possible to adopt a Lutari from the Pound.

If you attempt to send a Lutari to the Pound, it will instead run away. If this happens, the Lutari will be gone forever. This means it will be permanently unavailable to you or any other user, and its name will be unable for reuse when creating a new pet. So be careful when visiting the Pound with a Lutari on your account!

Prior to December 20, 2021, Lutari could not be transferred between accounts. Although they would not run away like they do when abandoned, they would refuse to leave the account. However, Lutari are now available to transferred and traded between accounts like any other species.

Premium Perk - Free Species Change

Premium members can also utilize their once yearly free species change to create a Lutari. Please note this perk works only once every 365 days—not once per calendar year.

Dream Neopet Giveaways

The Dream Neopet Giveaway is a site-wide event that allows users to enter for a chance to transform one of their pets into a pet of their choice, free of charge. A very small number of extremely lucky players are selected to have one Neopet changed into their dream pet, of any species and colour, including Lutari. This event is usually held every year in December.
