[[Sophie]] the Swamp Witch's Meowclops was used as a [[Wiktionary:guinea pig|guinea pig]] while developing the potion to reverse the effects [[Mr. Krawley]]'s potion - [[Hissi]] Oil - had on [[Neovia]]. During the course of these experiments, the Meowclops lost almost all its hair, developed an additional, [[Bearog]] head, transformed into a part-Meowclops imitation of [[Dr. Sloth]], and was turned into a piece of [[wikipedia:cubism|cubist]] art. The final potion - which did not alter the Meowclops - was used, but was not complete until combined with a flower found by [[Gilly]] in [[The Meepit Oaks Sanitorium for the Psychologically Fragile]].

Before the Meowclops was known as a "Meowclops", it was known as the Spooky Petpet '''Cyclopian'''. Released on ''(need date)'', it resembled a cyclops in both name and appearance. It was one of the less popular Petpets in [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]]' early years, which is why it was among [[List of Petpet redesigns|the Petpets redesigned]] on October 11, 2002. Like the others, it was immediately retired after the change.
Before the Meowclops became the Meowclops, it was known as a Spooky Petpet named '''Cyclopian'''. It resembles a [[Wikipedia:Cyclops|cyclops]] in both name and appearance. It was one of the less popular Petpets in [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]]' early years, which is why it was among [[List of Petpet redesigns|the Petpets getting an "update"]] on October 11, 2002. Like the others, it was immediately retired after the change.


It is not impossible to still own a Cyclopian. Any Petpet who was attached to a [[Neopet (species)|Neopet]] at the time of the change will stay the same. It will revert to the new version if it is removed, which means only a few users still have a Cyclopian.
