Anatomy

FUR COAT: Xweetoks originate from all over Neopia, so the thickness of a Xweetok's fur depends on where it was from. Xweetoks from Terror Mountain, for example, have the thickest fur to protect them from the harsh weather. Every Xweetok's fur, however, is adapted to cold temperatures underground, where they live.

FUR COLOUR: Unlike other neopets, the Xweetok's fur is mostly brown instead of mostly the basic color. This brown colour was not the result of eating too much chocolate because the Xweetok's skin is light yellow. When Xweetoks are born, their fur is light yellow. As the Xweetok grows, the fur slowly changes to brown.
