Cute and cuddly spring to mind for this adorable [[Neopet]]. While it may look like a big ball of fluff with two legs, those legs can pack a nasty kick if it is provoked. Often recommended as companions for children, this Neopet loves being hugged and played with, so adopting another one to keep it company is never a bad decision!

One of the most famous JubJubs in [[Neopia]] is the Shop Wizard.
The '''JubJub''' is a small [[Neopet]] reminiscent of a [[wikipedia:hedgehog|hedgehog]]. They were one of the original species available from [[Neopets]]' launch. The JubJubs' body is a ball of fur with no arms or hands, just a large pair of feet. Their feet have [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=3&id=9 opposable toes], which means they can still manipulate tools.

The JubJub's design - a ball with feet - is similar to the [[Kiko]]'s design - a ball with arms. There are two [[colour]]s that only JubJubs and Kikos can be painted - [[Clay]] and [[Garlic]]. The JubJub is also the only Neopet that can be painted [[Coconut]], where they resemble some members of the [[Coco people]].

The JubJub is a small Neopet reminiscent of a hedgehog. They were one of the original species available from Neopets' launch. The JubJubs' body is a ball of fur with no arms or hands, just a large pair of feet. Their feet have opposable toes, which means they can still manipulate tools.

The JubJub's design - a ball with feet - is similar to the Kiko's design - a ball with arms. There are two colours that only JubJubs and Kikos can be painted - Clay and Garlic. The JubJub is also the only Neopet that can be painted Coconut, where they resemble some members of the Coco people.

They are shy, unaggressive creatures who prefer to keep to themselves, but scare very easily. They can defend themselves with a deafening screech, and can curl up into a ball and flee at high speed. There are sixteen pieces of equipment that can only be used by a JubJub.
