Meowclops
The Meowclops is a cat-like Spooky Petpet with one eye. With its one eye it can see everything including that which is hidden (even the Hidden Tower). However it can't tell how far away it is and probably doesn't know what to do with it.
The Meowclops was introduced and retired on October 11, 2002 when it changed from a Cyclopian into its present day form. This and the fact owning a Meowclops can get you an avatar, have caused prices to raise as low as 700K Neopoints in the Trading Post as of August 2006.
Featured in Sophie's Stew as power-up giver and item catcher, and in Neopets: The Darkest Faerie and as a playable character in Petpet Adventures: The Wand of Wishing.
Cyclopian
Before the Meowclops became the Meowclops, it was known as a Spooky Petpet named Cyclopian. It resembles a cyclops in both name and appearance. It was one of the lesser popular Petpets in Neopets' early years, which is why it was among the Petpets getting an "update" on October 11, 2002. Like the others, it was immediately retired after the change.
It is not impossible to still own a Cyclopian. Any Petpet who was attached to a Neopet at the time of the change will stay the same untill it is removed. This means only a very few people still have a Cyclopian.
