THE Webkinz home page addressed the garden problem by telling us that "Nafaria" (the evil fairy from the Fairy Forest) had hexed our plants. Uh-huh. Yeah, sure. Last night the message changed and every single garden item was ready for harvest. Boy, did I make a bundle selling to the W Shop.

Some new pets are confirmed for May; here they are in virtual form. The Samoyed is Too Cute! The Gecko looks too much like a frog and the rhino like a hippo with a horn. And, why, oh, why, a pink dragon? Purple would have been okay, but pink? Ugh.

Here's the plush "Sammie."

One of the April animals is an American cocker spaniel; very tempting to buy and give it the name of one of Gladys Taber's cockers, like Honey or Teddy.

Following the pink poodle for April and the panda for May, the Pet of the Month for June is confirmed as an elephant. I have a panda virtual pet card, and an elephant in my stash.
