Adoption is the process in which a preexisting Neopet (as opposed to one made through Create a Neopet) is added to a user's account. There are two types of adoption. As a built-in site feature, Neopets who have been abandoned at the Neopian Pound can be adopted for a fee. Alternatively, users can choose to adopt Neopets from other users, foster parents, who advertise their Neopets as up for adoption. The latter method is an unofficial form of adoption which has been tentatively allowed by The Neopets Team.
Adoption through the Pound
The Neopian Pound can be found in the menu bar under Pet Central or on the Neopian Plaza map. The pink, leftmost door labeled "Adopt" leads to the adoption page. Three pets will appear at a time. Users must select the pet they wish to adopt, and a fee will be deducted from their on-hand neopoints. The exact price is determined by its characteristics (color, statistics, etc.).
Pets that are above level 2, are limited-edition species, or that have been painted with certain rare or expensive paintbrushes, cannot be adopted by any account younger than four months.
Adoption through adoption agencies
Types of Applications
Most foster parents request an application to help them know more about the applicant and how qualified he or she is.
