The Pet Hippo is a members-only land and underwater pet.

Appearance[]

The Pet Hippo has a wide, triangular head with a large mouth and a short body that has stubby legs. This pet can appear in a variety of bright colors.

The eyes available include happy, cartoon-like, crossed out, sleepy, round with eyelashes, and plain round. The ear options include up-turned, long and droopy, rounded, and sharp. The face options consist of a regular smile, an overbite, a smile with the tongue hanging out, and a smile with two large teeth sticking out.

The body pattern offers four options with some slight differences. The half-and-half pattern consists of a dark secondary color across the entire front-half of the body with a bright primary color on the back-half of the body. The widow's-peak pattern consists of a dark secondary color on the face with a V-shape on the forehead and a light primary color for the rest of the body. The plain pattern has a dark primary color on most of the body with a dark secondary color around the mouth. The spotted pattern uses a light primary color for most of the body with a dark secondary color for spots on the back and it also includes pink around the mouth.
