The Acara is a cat-like Neopet and has two horns on its head which drape backwards like ponytails.

Overview

Acaras are amphibious and can breathe underwater, and it is sometimes hinted that the "tentacles" somehow give the Acara the ability to echolocate when submerged in water. The tentacles may imply that the Acara was based on Capricorn. In general, they tend to be very playful and enjoy exploring, racing, and looking for hidden treasure under the sea.

As their huge eyes might suggest, Acaras are known for being highly inquisitive and curious creatures. They take a great joy in coming upon secrets and hidden things, and quite a few have distinguished themselves as very talented treasure-seekers. Some condemn Acaras for being nosey, and it is true that they tend to ask a few too many questions -- but there is no ill will behind those questions, just a genuine desire to learn.

Since they are equally at home on land or underwater, Acaras prefer to live along the coast.

Originally, they were Limited Edition but have now become common.

Colours

As of August 2007, the Acara can come in 42 different colors. One of the more interesting of these is the Maraquan variant, which appears to be a return to the Acara's watery roots.

Tigren

When first introduced on the Neopets website on April 28, 2000, the pet now known as the Acara was an otter-like Neopet called the Tigren. They were chosen from a player's design as part of a Create-A-Pet contest. The name was changed on July 19 for reasons unknown, along with the Polypup's change to the Gelert. The news page of the time touted the change as "evolution", in keeping with the Pokémon-like feel that the pets originally had.

Trivia

  • As of August 2007, Acaras rank 9th out of 53 Neopets, with about 5 million in existence.
  • Acara Day is on June 28th.
  • In the Neopets TCG, Acaras are associated with the element of water.
