Adopt a Grundo!



One of the most commonly abandoned (and rarely adopted) species is the Grundo, Neopia's huggably puppy-eyed friend from outer space. Why these little fellows are so often left in the lurch is not certain. Part of it might be that new players create them at the Virtupets Space Station thinking they have found a rare pet and discover later what a very common and (sadly) unpopular species they are. Other players might find the ability to create them in purple, brown, and white, colors not normally available at a pet's creation, to be a novelty whose charm later wears off. Whatever the case, I wish to discuss the other side of the coin: adopting a Grundo from the pound...
