 The '''Gnorbu''' is a [[Wikipedia:Llama|llama]]-like [[Neopet]] released on January 6, 2006. Gnorbu are known for their spirited sense of humour, and enjoy making others laugh even if it's at their own expense. Despite its natural lack of agility, the Gnorbu has a kind heart and a good-natured outlook that can win it many friends. They also enjoy social activities such as browsing through [[shops]] in [[Neopia Central]] or eating with their closest friends.

+Gnorbu have their [[wikipedia:sheep shearing|fleece sheared]] once a year on their pet day. Before the introduction of [[Neopets Customisation]], for the duration of that day, every user's Gnorbu in Neopia, no matter colour they are [[colour|painted]], appeared as sheared. They returned to normal by the following day. Since customisation was introduced, the images do not update, but they are still referred to as "ShearedGnorbu" on their pet lookup instead of their normal colour.
-The Gnorbu was originally made public under the name '''Llamameeah''', as part of the [[April Fool's]] joke in 2005. It was so liked that it won the contest for which of the joke pets should become real, however despite this, is the least popular of the Neopets not [[Limited Edition|limited edition]] or restricted.
