Last but certainly not least for the line-up in April 2010 is another featured pet that’s as dependable as it is adorable. Joining the cast of new featured pets alongside the Rainbow Armadillo, Warthog, and Dazzle Daschund is none other than the Donkey.

The dependable Donkey is a bit clumsy but forever loyal. The Donkey may dip into a daydream from time to time, but this cuddly pet is always ready for a hug. And with its frazzled tuft of grey hair on its head and its bushy-ended tail, this Donkey is simply adorable.

Our new Signature Endangered line of pets kicks of in March with the beautiful Bengal Tiger. The Bengal Tiger is a hard pet to top, but our second entry into the Signature Endangered line in April 2010 is just as impressive. Say hello to the Signature Endangered Asian Elephant!

Standing tall, proud, and strong, the stoic Signature Endangered Asian Elephant is one of the largest and most impressive animals in all of Webkinz World. The wise and quiet Asian Elephant has a great memory, so playing with it and caring for it will earn you a friend for life!

In addition to the fun featured pets and the brand new Signature Small Fox, there’s another great pet coming in April 2010. One of our most beautiful dogs to date, the Signature Short Haired Yorkie is nearly ready to make its debut!

You won’t find a more playful puppy than the youthful Short Haired Yorkie. This beautiful, bright-eyed pet loves a good tummy rub almost as much as it loves going for a run in the Kinzville Park! You’ll never be bored when you’re playing with the Short Haired Yorkie!

Visit Webkinz Jr. and you’ll see a brand new yellow school bus parked near the Little Acorn Academy. Hop aboard to take a field trip with Miss Lily and explore a totally NEW map!

On the new map, you’ll see the first of many field trip locations – the fire station. You can go there to explore, play some activities, and learn about what our friends the firefighters do.

Following in the footsteps of the Small Signature Beagle comes the second pet in our new Small Signature line. Small Signature pets bring the quality and exclusive items of full Signature pets in a smaller size at a smaller price point. Meet the Small Signature Fox!

With its pretty pointed ears, soft red coat, fluffy paws, and loving eyes, the Small Signature Fox is just begging to be cuddled. This friendly Fox loves to frolic, and you’ll often find it chasing its own fluffy tail or flopping about. You won’t find a finer Fox anywhere!
