The '''Slorg''' is a [[Wikipedia:Slug|slug]]-like [[Spooky Petpet|Spooky]] [[Petpet]] released on August 30, 2001. They almost always have a huge, inane grin and large, round eyes. Slorgs are featured in the game [[Attack of the Slorgs]] and appear in some other games like [[Feed Florg]] and [[Petpet Cannonball]].  
The '''Slorg''' is a [[Wikipedia:Slug|slug]]-like species of [[Petpet]]. They almost always have a huge, inane grin and large, round eyes. Slorgs are featured in the game [[Attack of the Slorgs]] and appear in some other games like [[Feed Florg]] and [[Petpet Cannonball]].  


The Slorg is often used to comic effect by [[The Neopets Team]]: for example, they released a personality quiz - [[http://www.neopets.com/games/whichpetpet.phtml Which Petpet are You?] - that always resulted, no matter what options were chosen, in the conclusion that the user was a Slorg. This was later claimed to be a "technical problem" and "fixed" on September 19, 2002, since which time the user is always categorised as a Pink Slorg.

It was suggested [[Neopets (website)|the website]]'s [http://www.neopets.com/add_poll.phtml now closed polls] that the Slorg may become a [[Neopet]], in the same way as the [[Krawk (Petpet)|Krawk]] in that a young Slorg would still be a Petpet and its adult version would become a Neopet. While votes for the idea were high, the idea has not been developed any further, and may just have been a comic conjecture.
