Kyrii

	Featured Article (list of featured articles)

The Kyrii is a Ferret-like Neopet released on February 9, 2001, although it could technically be adopted since the creation of Neopets via an older Neopet the Fuzio.

Overview

Right at the appearance of the Kyrii, they began to make friends due to their friendly and easy going nature. Always on the lookout for new places to explore, Kyrii like to travel together in packs, but get along with other Neopets as well. They take pride in the condition of their hair, and if it gets dirty a Kyrii will get very upset. Kyrii also have an allergy to any food with the word "apple" in it, and come down with Itchy Scratchies if they eat any.

In the official description of the Kyrii, it's said the "Kyrii apeared in Neopia one day without any notice." This is not the case however, as it was noticed by the many owners of Fuzio. This has been left in the description as either a joke from The Neopets Team or to simplify the Neopet description for users new to Neopets.

Fuzio

The Kyrii was originally known as the Fuzio, one of the first Neopets created. Named "Fuzio" probably due to it being a ball of fluff similar to the JubJub, but with floating, detached sneakers and gloves. The design of the current Kyrii was voted upon by users and was finalized on February 9, 2001 (design #4 of 5 different designs, which received over 30,000 votes). All Fuzio in Neopets were then replaced with the new design, all Fuzio colours being replaced with Kyrii versions. It's unknown why the redesign took place, if it was due to copyright issues or an outdated design. The only famous Fuzio in Neopia before the redesign was David Fuzio, founder of Yippee! on the Stock Market along with Jubjub Yang.
