Petpetpets

Petpetpet attachment is working again! When the mobile-friendly layout was first introduced in October 2021, Petpetpets could not be attached. This was fixed in January 2023.

If a Petpet is a pet for your Neopet to look after, then a Petpetpet is a pet for your Neopet's Petpet to look after; a little bug-like critter that you can attach to a Petpet to keep it company. All of the Petpetpets are shown below:

Getting Petpetpets

Petpetpets, commonly abbreviated as "P3's", can be obtained in a variety of ways.

Prizes

P3's are available as prizes from the following site events and features:

Purchasing

P3's can also be purchased from several locations across the site.

One-Time Releases

Occasionally, a P3 will even be given out as a one-time prize for an event or activity.

Advent Calendar

Occasionally, a P3 will even be given out as an Advent Calendar prize! Some P3's have been given out exclusively as Advent Calendar prizes. They are not obtainable through any of the above methods—they are unique to the Advent Calendar.

Previous Methods

Petpetpets were once awarded from an old random event. However, when random events were revamped in April 2014, this particular event was removed.

Attaching a Petpetpet

Attaching a Petpetpet is permanent! Once you attach a Petpetpet to a Petpet you cannot take it off. This means that you cannot resell it or give it to another Petpet.

Once you have the P3 in your inventory, make sure that you have the correct Neopet set as active. Again, attaching is permanent—if you accidentally have the wrong pet set as active, you cannot "un-attach" the P3. As such, it's best to avoid your inventory altogether until you're ready to attach. Once you're ready, head to your inventory.

Previously, attaching a Petpetpet could be quite a pain! With the new mobile-friendly site layout, however, there is a quick refresh trick that appears to make it much easier. Instead of utilizing your browser's refresh button, or the Ctrl+R shortcut on your keyboard, click the star icon (labeled "Full Inventory" on desktop browsers) in rapid succession. You do not need to wait for the page to fully reload before clicking it again. We recommend clicking the button a few dozen times before allowing the page to fully reload. With any luck, your P3 should be attached in under a minute!



The desktop (top) and mobile (bottom) versions of the inventory both have the "star" button available

Once the P3 has disappeared from your inventory, you can verify on the home page, Quick Ref, or your pet's lookup to confirm it attached successfully.

As with any page on the site, refreshing can cause you to encounter random events. Some of these, like the Pant Devil, can nab your precious Petpetpet! To lower the chances it gets taken from an event like this, fill up your inventory with useless junk alongside your Petpetpet.

Avoiding Attachment

If you're looking to sell or deposit your P3 without attaching it, it's best to navigate directly to the Trading Post or Quick Stock. If you need to change your active pet prior to attaching, you should navigate directly to the homepage or to Quick Ref.

Auctioning your P3 is a little tricky as auctions are started from your inventory, and entering your inventory risks attaching the P3. If this is your plan, consider changing your active pet to one that already has a P3 attached, or does not have a Petpet at all, before entering your inventory.

Losing a Petpetpet

In general, Petpetpets are permanently attached. They can only be lost if your Petpet is also lost, such as:

Petpetpet Avatars
