Aisha

The Aisha is a cat-like Neopet that was one of the original pets. Aishas are highly intelligent creatures; they are very clever and use their knowledge wisely. This knowledge also provides them with curiosity and a natural gift for magical things.

Not all Aishas are native to Neopia though, and there are a strange other species. There are some six-eared cousins to the Neopian Aishas called Alien Aishas, who love to meddle with new and exciting recipes, often with less than delicious results.

Overview

Most Aishas are very brainy and/or are skilled in magic. They have very good hearing because of their four (and sometimes six) ears. Some Aishas are also very creative, proved by the Alien Aishas' concoctions of Gross Food. Like many other species of pets, they take pride in being Aishas, and the default Aisha petpage reads at the bottom (with a picture of an Aisha shaking its head), "Are Lennies clever? Noooooo!!!! Aishas are much smarter!!! Byyyyyyeeeeeee!" Apparently, they are not only very smart, but very self-conscious and extremely agile, as the default petpage states that Aishas are good at Gormball. All in all, Aishas SURELY some pretty cool Neopets!
