Nov 16, 2016 well, I wouldn't add anything original: they seem cute, but yes, some of them are really unimpressive. All the existing bday petpets are so cute, sweet and just-to-eat treats, and these are like pets covered in frosting:P I like the idea behind the Snorkle, though, this candle on his nose.

Just like our own home planet, the world of Neopia has a 365-day year composed of twelve months. However, there are some important differences, as well as a lot of special occasions that don't take place on Earth at all! There's no need to be confused, though. Read on for your guide to everything calendar-related, as well as some great events you won't want to miss!
Neopian Years and Months
Like Earth years, Neopian years are numbered. Although work on the Neopets.com concept is said to have begun in 1997, the site was first opened to the public late in 1999, which became known as Year One.
Aye, Year One, I remember it well..
Neopian years are divided up into twelve months, each known as the 'Month of [Verb]'. It's standard to use only the verb to refer to the month when giving dates, and to use the abbreviation 'Y' for 'year'.
For example, 9th May 2005, would be known in Neopia as the 9th day of Hunting, Y7. In practice, most Neopians switch between the two date formats according to what's most convenient.
Years
Neopets began its recorded history in Year 1, which corresponds to 1999. Below is a table of the years:
A Neopian Calendar
While some events in Neopia happen only once or at unpredictable times, others tend to fall on or around the same date every year.

Pet days are among the commonest events, and it's easy to see why -- every one of the fifty-five species of pet in Neopia has its own festival day. These days have a variety of names, from the Acara Aquatic Festival to the Chomby Carnival; they mostly fall on the anniversary of the species' first introduction to Neopia, although in some cases this is not possible due to clashes with other events. On a pet's festival day, TNT will typically announce at least one new colour (usually two) available for that pet, as well as several new items themed around that species. The Art Gallery and Poetry Contest winners for that day may also be related to the pet species being celebrated. Finally, Cap'n Threelegs at the Swashbuckling Academy will offer free training to all pets of that species (unless they are enrolled on other courses, or too high-level for him to train).
Celebrating with cake is optional. But tasty.
Neopets has its own calendar, but it doesn't cover a lot of the special occasions that have become regular fixtures in the Neopian year, or let players know what to expect out of the odder-sounding anniversaries and celebrations. That's why we've put together this more detailed calendar of Neopian events. If you want to know what you'll be able to celebrate in the next few weeks or months, look no further!
Month of Sleeping (January)
This is the start of the year, but with the previous year still fresh in everyone's minds, the Month of Sleeping has traditionally been the time for the Neopie Awards. These fun (and often silly) polls look back on the most memorable events of the past twelve months. Each day, you can vote for the best event, item, character or redesign in a chosen category, such as Best New Paint Brush or Best Neocash-Related Event. Who and what will take the trophy? It's up to you!
Month of Awakening (February)
With Valentine's Day falling on the 14th, the NC Mall often gets into the spirit of sweet gestures and glitzy gifts by giving away free goodie bags. Keep an eye out for them throughout the first half of this month.
Month of Running (March)
This month, the festival of Gadgadsbogen celebrates the arrival of brand new types of fruit on Mystery Island. There are no activities for this event, but lots of new fruit-related items will be released, while older fruits and berries will be retired. You can get the 'Gadgadsbogen!' secret avatar on the 4th day of this month by reading this legend about the festival.
If you're a Flash gamer, you can test your abilities in the Daily Dare challenge, often held during this month. Games master AAA and his sister Abigail challenge players to beat their scores in a different game every day. Hardcore gamers will try to beat AAA for the most valuable daily prizes and a shiny trophy; more casual players might want to try beating Abigail's scores instead.
Month of Eating (April)
During this month, the Negg Faerie, Kari, leaves her Neggery and hides plastic Neggs around Neopia for a site-wide treasure hunt known as the Festival of Neggs. By finding the Neggs she hides every day, you can win all sorts of interesting prizes!

The start of summer is kickoff time for the year's most popular sporting event, the Altador Cup! Pick your team from among the Neopian regions, then get over to the Altador Colosseum to play the great game of Yooyuball (or help out in other ways, such as serving slushies or just making some noise). Be sure to drop by Jellyneo for our annual Staff Tournament, too!
Month of Swimming (July)
Month of Hiding (August)
Month of Gathering (September)
This month's Faerie Festival spreads a little magic to Neopian users. Past Festivals have varied from a single day of Faerie-themed celebration to item giveaways lasting two weeks or more. Keep an eye on New Features to see what Neopia's magical guardians are doing this year!
Month of Collecting (October)
This month is devoted to the Haunted Woods, home of everything spooky. Special events and celebrations often take place in this creepy little town for some or all of the month, offering item giveaways and special treasure-hunt quests.
Month of Storing (November)
Neopets emoticons. AAA's Gamesmaster's Challenge often shows up around this time of year, providing a bit of excitement and challenge for the increasingly dark and damp autumn days. Like Daily Dare, this event challenges Flash gamers to demonstrate their skills in a whole variety of games, with prizes for the successful.
Month of Celebrating (December)17th Birthday Cake Ideas
With two big events -- the Day of Giving and New Year's Eve -- to look forward to, this entire month is one big celebration. The inhabitants of Happy Valley have recently started organising an annual Winter Starlight Festival that lasts all month; the main attraction, though, is the Advent Calendar, where you can watch silly animations designed by the Neopets Team and collect gifts of Neopoints and items every single day!
