Slorg
The Slorg is a slug-like Spooky Petpet released on August 30, 2001. They almost always have a huge, inane grin and large, round eyes. Slorgs are featured in the game Attack of the Slorgs and appear in some other games like Feed Florg and Petpet Cannonball.
The Slorg is often used to comic effect by The Neopets Team: for example, they released a personality quiz - Which Petpet are You? - that always resulted, no matter what options were chosen, in the conclusion that the user was a Slorg. This was later claimed to be a "technical problem" and "fixed" on September 19, 2002, since which time the user is always categorised as a Pink Slorg.
It was suggested the website's now closed polls that the Slorg may become a Neopet, in the same way as the Krawk in that a young Slorg would still be a Petpet and its adult version would become a Neopet. While votes for the idea were high, the idea has not been developed any further, and may just have been a comic conjecture.
The Slorg forms a Slorgclops when combined in the Cooking Pot with a Meowclops.
Colours
As of October 2008, Slorgs come in 39 different colours, of which 5 can only be obtained from the Petpet Lab Ray and 34 can be painted using a Petpet Paint Brush...
