Well, do we have a treat for you today! Several lovely new items are releasing today, like this summery Traptur Soap funded by @mochihugs. The Traptur Soap can be found restocking at the Grooming Parlour.



Another of the new items is this yummy-looking Bag of Marshmallows funded by @sarsaprilly. This sweet treat can be found restocking at Sugar Rush, and you may be given it as a reward for completing Snowman quests. The Candy Quest will request them in one week, though.



Finally, we have two new food items to munch, as well as three new ice cubes, all funded by @Cibola. The Broccoli Cheese Soup and Tomato Soup restock at the Food Mall. They're given out by the Candy Quest and will requested by the Space Quest in one week. The matching Ice Cubes - Frozen Broccoli Cheese Soup and Frozen Tomato Soup - can be obtained by freezing them at the Ice Box. Last but not least, the lovely Mythical Jakrit Ice Cube can be found restocking at the Frozen Collectives Emporium and will be a potential reward from the Space Quest and requested by the Snowman in one week.



If you love seeing these user funded items, why not create your own here.

Enjoy collecting all these gorgeous new goodies and stay safe at home. IcePets is here for you.

It looks like the Jakits have accepted all the entries for the Create a Novitegg Contest! This means no further entries will be accepted. It also means Terrafrostians can now view all the Noviteggs created and vote on your favourite! The voting will end on April 29th, so make sure to pick the best before then!





Member of the Month voting for this month is ending soon! Wherever you are in Terrafrost, don't forget to head to the nearest voting booth and cast your vote for Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! Terrafrostians can vote for up to three Users to win 100,000 IcePoints and the Member of the Month Avatar.



Two winners will be chosen each month. One lucky new winner will be honoured with Yet to Win MOTM, for those who have yet to be recognised for their community contribution. Then there is the Free for All MOTM, which includes all members except Staff, for those long-time members who deserve another tip of the hat. For those who have already won MOTM, you will receive the Honoured Member Trophy.



Remember!
- You cannot nominate yourself or members of Staff.
- Do not ask other Users to vote for yourself or other members.
- You may vote for up to three Users per month.
- Send your nominations here!

You can submit your vote any time during the month, and have until the end of the month to do so. Winners will be announced on the first of next month!

With the world tucked away indoors, these adorable little Microbe Plushies have come to the land of Terrafrost. The very generous @Mongolou funded them, so everyone on IcePets can enjoy these lovely new plushies.



There are 12 to collect: Blue, Green, Yellow, Red, Orange, Pink, Purple, Turquoise, Tech, Pirate, Rainbow and the special Angry Storm Microbe Plushie. All the Microbe Plushies restock at Plushie Mania and will be given out as rewards by the Book Quest. Keep your eye on Samuel, though, as he'll be after them for his Plushie Quest in a week's time.



If you'd like to have a go at requesting your own IcePets items, you can do that here. Stay safe, and enjoy all that extra time to play IcePets.

Novitaria was a huge success this year! Our Jakrits had a wonderful time decorating and the Makoats really enjoyed hiding eggs for everyone to find. They'd like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who participated in the Jakrit Hunt! They will have their hands full with clean up very soon, but they will be handing out trophies once user scores are finalized.




Trophies aren't the only thing our wonderful host are giving out! They've worked with their tight schedules to create some new goodies for the Novitaria Store. You will find the Dust Jakrit Plush, Foil Wrapped Chocolate Noviteggs, Couture Novitegg Stamp, Novitegg Hunt Profile Skin and a new friend, Leggit.



As a quick reminder, you can still find both the 5 Random Noviteggs and the Randomly Picked Jakrit Morphing Potion in the ICE Shop. The Randomly Picked Jakrit Potion can also be found in the Snow Jar Igloo and the Novitaria Store. These will only be avalible until the end of the month, so grab them while you can!

As spring rolls merrily along, Terrafrost is still in the throes of celebrating Novitaria. Jakrits are everywhere, and even the Dovus are looking more and more like chicks. I guess they ate too many chocolate Noviteggs! Noviteggs are restocking with even lower rarity. Lower rarity means they appear in shops more often. More Noviteggs for you! However, the Novitaria event ends tomorrow, so it's your last chance to grab those Noviteggs and all the lovely goodies inside.

Be sure to collect all the points you can for the Novitaria 2020 Trophies. You'll have to do this today, as Novitaria is ending on April 18th. That's tomorrow!



With all the festivities winding down, don't forget the colouring contest is ending soon! If you want a chance to win some great prizes be sure to submit your picture to Nexinhah by April 21st, 23:59:59 (IcePets time).

In this time of celebration and new hopes, our Jakrit and Makoat hosts have something special to show us! Much like their older counterparts, Baby Audrils are cunning beyond their years. They like to make new toys for themselves with whatever is around them. They will even share their toys and materials with other friends.



If you are looking into getting one of these cuties, now you can! The Baby Audril Morphing Potion can be found in the I.C.E.Shop for 500 IC (450 for Gold Accounts) until the end of the month. You can also find the Baby Audril Morphing Potion in the Snow Jar Igloo.

From eggs to flowers to sweet treats, IcePets has it all! Noviteggs are popping up everywhere, and Terrafrost is full of Jakrits. It looks like Novitaria is in full swing! The Springtime Surprise Basket has returned to all the NPC shops today, except for the Golden Touch and the Snow Jar Igloo, of course. You can also get it from any of the quests. I wonder what spring-themed items you'll find inside... Hurry with your restocking and your quests, though! The Springtime Surprise Basket will only be available until April 27th. Be sure to grab as many as you can before time runs out!

As Terrafrostians search for Noviteggs, it seems our festive hosts found a surprise of their own! The Baby Jakrit and Baby Makoat have some noticeable changes. Many native Terrafrostians can tell you that Baby Jakrits are very rambunctious. They like to play, talk, and are extremely active. Baby Makoats, on the other hand, like to take things slow. They spend a lot of time napping and eating. Despite their differences, it doesn't take long for them to build long-lasting friendships!



If these babies stole your heart and you just have to take one home, you can! The Makoat Morphing Potion and the Baby Jakrit Morphing Potion can be found in the Snow Jar Igloo. After two weeks the Baby Jakrit Morphing Potion will be harder to find, as they will return to only being found in Randomly Picked Jakrit Morphing Potions.

In case these new babies aren't showing up for you, try a hard refresh with Ctrl-F5 or Fn-F5.

As we get further into the chocolatey delights of Novitaria, the I.C.E Shop is bringing out Five Random Noviteggs. They cost 250 IC (225 IC for Gold Account users).

It looks like the I.C.E Shop is spoiling us all because they've added the Randomly Picked Jakrit Morphing Potion as well! It's only 500 IC (450 for Gold Account users). It can also be found in the Novitaria store for 300 Novitaria Credits or restocking at the Snow Jar Igloo (until the end of the month).



Since its Novitaria in Terrafrost, the shopkeepers have decided to be extra generous! All the Noviteggs are now restocking with lower rarity, in all the NPC shops. This means you'll be seeing Noviteggs restocking more often in your favourite shops! We hope you find everything you want this year. Happy Novitaria!

Today, Ralph began stocking the Seasons of Cleaning poetry book in his bookstore! This book contains all the entries from our latest contest, Seasonal Cleaning. Thank you to everyone who entered and we hope everyone is able to pick up their very own copy!



Over the years, the Novitegg workload has increased and Jakrits like to recruit help when they can. They've even made a fun game of it for Baby Jakrits, who get to design fun new eggs every year! This year, our lovely Jakrits would like to invite you to create your own Novitegg! They have provided a template for everyone to use and encourage any Terrfrostian to try out their decorating skills. And of course, winners will be chosen and prizes awarded at the end! Entires must be turned in by April 21st, so hop to it!





1) All work submitted must be your own. You cannot ask another User, a friend, or a family member to colour the image for you.
2) One entry per User.
3) You may use any means to colour your entry. Traditional, digital, etc!
4) All entries submitted must be considered appropriate under the Terms and Conditions of IcePets.
5) Keep your entries private and please do not share with other Users!
6) Your image must be uploaded and sent to Nexinhah by April 21st, 23:59:59 (IcePets time). It does not matter what website you upload it too or in what format. Your submission will count as long as it is sent to @Nexinhah within the time frame. You only need to submit the image URL.



For those wondering, there will be prizes involved! You may win:



1st Place
- Gold Contestant Trophy
- Golden Competitor Stamp
- 1 Random Jakrit Morphing Potion
- 150,000 IcePoints

2nd Place

Come one, come all, Novitaria is here! Noviteggs are now restocking in all the NPC shops, except Golden Touch and the Snow Jar Igloo. You can also get them as prizes from all the quests. You can find a list of all the quests on the Games page. Time to get collecting Noviteggs!



If that wasn't enough Novitaria goodness for you, take a look at these revamped Novitaria items! The Chocolate Cream Deviled Egg, Hungry Jakrit Plush, Century Egg, Jakrit Ears and Jakrit Horns have all received a fresh new look!

A few of these items have also received a slight change in names. The Bunny Ears has been changed to Jakrit Ears, the Special Cottoncandy Jakrit Plush has been changed to Hungry Jakrit Plush and the Thousand Year Egg has been changed to Century Egg, but the other item names remain the same. Maybe you will find one of these revamped goodies while you're opening your Noviteggs!



If you can't see the revamped versions of these sweet Novitaria items, hit Ctrl-F5 or Fn-F5. Happy Novitaria!

Colourful banners and sightings of Jakrits painting each other can only mean one thing; Novitaria is starting! Novitaria is a celebration of new life, spanning from adorable Baby Pets to cute Companions. It is a great time of year to focus on colour, happiness, and finding wonder in the world. It also means that the well-know tradition, the Jakrit Hunt, will be in full swing this year! Jakrits have worked tirelessly to paint hundreds of plastic Noviteggs while Makoats have hauled them all over Terrafrost, looking for perfect hiding spots. As always, they would like to invite all Terrafrostians to join the hunt and find some neat prizes stashed away in colourful Noviteggs!



The Jakrits created two new beautiful eggs to add to the festivities, the Khalic Desert Novitegg and the Meteora Novitegg. Each egg contains some fun location themed prizes, so keep an eye out for them! They will also be compatible with Ice Box so you can make their Ice Cube counterparts.



As always, Terrafrostians can search for Novitegg Stockpiles which will be fiercely guarded by Makoats. Upon being found, they will grant you with one random Novitegg. Each Stockpile will remain in the same location for ten minutes before being moved. Terrafrostians are encouraged to share these locations with fellow citizens! Additionally, each Terrafrostian will be able to find their own Noviteggs while browsing Terrafrost. These ones will be unique to each user, so the location cannot be shared. It also seems that our Jakrits have cooked up something special this year! Novitaria Trophies will be given based the amount of eggs you find. This will only include eggs found from stockpiles and your own random Noviteggs. The Makoats have let us know cleanup is scheduled for April 18th, so get hunting!

It must be Prankster Day! No? It seems like this Prankster Sharshel is here to stay. Adopt one of your own by tracking down the infamous Prankster Pie! It can be found in the Suspicious Present which will be temporarily restocking in all NPC shops except Golden Touch and the Snow Jar Igloo. You can also get the pie itself from Sugar Rush, as usual, though you may find that it's rarity has been lowered for a short time.



You can get the Suspicious Present as a reward from any quests except the Collector and the Beauty King. Remember, due to these mischevious pets, you can't get a Morphing Potion or Snow Jar to get a Prankster pet. So keep an eye out for suspicious-looking presents and low-flying pies! Don't forget presents are only available until April 10th and the Prankster Pie's rarity will return to normal.



Looks like the Prankster Sharshel wasn't the only surprise as had in store, as the adorable new Prankster Dabu Plushie has decided to join the fun! This little fellow, requested by @JohnDoe, can be found restocking at Plushie Mania and will be rewarded by Penelope at the Book Quest as well. The Plushie Quest will begin requesting this item in one week's time.



Have an item that you'd love to see on the site? Visit our Support Page to create an item of your own!

It seems like something is amiss today. We haven't quite figured it out, but maybe all Terrafrostians should do a hard refresh for a better look. Just hit Ctrl-F5 or Fn-F5 to take a look for yourself!




The votes have been tallied, and it's time to announce the winners of Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! For this month's Yet to Win MOTM, everyone congratulate...
