The Meepit is a pink Spooky Petpet released on August 30, 2001 with large unblinking black eyes, short front limbs, stout bodies, and large hind feet. While seemingly innocent, many Neopians find something scary about their eyes. Because of this fear, they are accused of being associated with Dr. Sloth and trying to take over Neopia but unknown if this is fact or an inside joke of The Neopets Team. However, The Meepit was originally introduced on October 15, 2001 in NeoQuest I, called a Pygmy, which collectively were a tribe of ferocious creatures which took over a research centre. This is the only time their evil nature has been revealed, and may be the source of Neopians' fear.
The Meepit has a rarity of 98, making it a very rare and expensive Petpet, costing as low as 1.5 million Neopoints at the Trading Post as of October 2006. It can also be combined with 2 different items at at the Cooking Pot: with the Fishing Kiko Gnome a Fishing Meepit Statue is created, and with Roburg 3T3 a Romeep 3t3.

The hero has to fight with 8 types of pygmies: vulgar pygmy, shaman, greater shaman,pygmy chief, pygmy warrior, pygmy sage,pygmy elder and a skeletal shaman.
