Operation: Petpet Park is a plot that began on September 4, 2008. It was used as a way to introduced Petpet Park to Neopets users.

During beta testing, most of the Operation: Petpet Park characters were removed from Petpet Park and were replaced by Petpet characters. As such, most of the events of Operation: Petpet Park are no longer part of Neopets' canon.

Plot summary

A mini-plot based on the Park was released on September 4, 2008 and it was named Operation: Petpet Park. Each of the six missions will involve users accomplishing tasks to safely retrieve a petpet from portals connecting Petaria and Neopia. The plot is available only in English.

Mission 1

Mission 1 was released on September 4, 2008. Players had to go through a maze in the caves of Terror Mountain. If they take a wrong turn, they will encounter Snowbeasts. At the end, they will reach the portal, and retrieve a Drym.

Mission 2

Mission 2 was released on September 9, 2008. To complete this mission, players had to rotate a special stone, called the Moonlight Opal, so that it refracted the moonlight from a nearby window onto three special markings. After all three markings were bathed in moonlight, a portal opened revealing a Hifflo.

Mission 3

Mission 3 was released on September 16, 2008. Yurius has opened numerous portals. The player had to equalize the magnetic field and shut down all the incorrect portals. thats it At the end, the player would find a Pinixy

Mission 4

On Mystery Island, the agents discovered that they had arrived too late. Yurius had already arrived and claimed the Kassegats. He hid them within a temple on the island, behind several traps. However, the agents were able to use quick thinking to overcome them by a moderator named Phil, and rescued the Petpets.

Mission 5

Next, on the hunt for Oukins, the agents were dispatched to the Haunted Woods. Once again, Yurius had managed to get there first, and left yet another cryptic note for the agents. They soon discovered the Oukins, locked within one of the graveyard's tombs.

Mission 6

Finally, the agents were dispatched to Maraqua on the hunt for Dipnis. However, Yurius sprang a trap on the agents, trapping them within a gradually flooding device. Yurius trapped himself within a similar device, and claimed that whoever escaped first was the better PPL agent. As the agents figured out the solution to the keypad lock on the trap, Yurius discovered that his own solution had become damp with the water, and the ink had run. The agents escaped, and agreed to free Yurius rather than let him drown. Yurius meanwhile, had a startling flashback to his entrance exam with the PPL. Then, just as in the trap, he had used a pen instead of a pencil, causing him to be fired. It was this that had caused him to seek revenge. The agents returned both Yurius and the Petpets to Weltrude, and she prepared to open the Petpet Park to the rest of Neopia.
