Today we have started a MASSIVE removal of inactive accounts to free up millions of usernames and pet names! Over the 13 Years of Marapets, 7,514,851 pets and 6,041,964 accounts have been created and obviously many of these accounts are dead. This will MOVE (not delete) several million accounts that didn't play for long and have not visited in the past 5 years. They will not be removed for good, we will keep a copy incase they ever return but they will have to change username or pet names!

Over the next few days, new usernames and pet names will slowly become avaliable at about 500 an hour. If there is a pet name or username you are wanting, make sure you keep checking the Town Hall regularly. If it says a name is avaliable, do not trust it, press the button and try anyway and it will double check. The cache will be updated once the purge is complete.

The Chibs can now wear the Splatter Costume.

Every player has their own unique Referral URL to give out to other people. If they visit Marapets using this link you will be rewarded if they then play Marapets. The more people you refer and the longer that they play, the more Referral Points you will earn! You can spend these in the Referral Shop.

The way you earn Referral Points is listed below. We will reward you for players who actually play Marapets - the more they play, the more you win! For example, if you refer just one active player, who plays for 60 days reaching Level 36 shield of the Marapets Progress, you will receive 85 Referral Points! If they purchased Account Upgrade Credit you will receive an extra 25 Referral Points and £1 Account Upgrade Credit!

It is time for you to spread the word! Use your Referral URL to tell your friends and family all about Marapets. Play other sites? Add it to your signature! Post it on Facebook or Twitter. Send it in emails. You can even print our Referral Cards and hand them out with candy on Halloween!

A new Ugly Contest has just started. Congratulations to the winners...

You may have noticed our creator, Mara, appear yesterday. Turning 10 Years Old in 2014 was a huge milestone and it made us all think about the next 10 Years of Marapets. Virtual pet sites are confusing to players who have not played or heard of them before. Whenever a new player joins and we try to answer the question "So what do you actually do on Marapets?" there is never a simple answer. Since then we have been removing pointless features, improving important features and simplifying Marapets for everyone.

This new Marapets Progress feature is a kind of 'ulimate goals' for Marapets. Every player starts at zero and you complete 3 challenges at each level. Every 10 levels will have an item prize and the MP reward at each level increases by 2,500MP. As you progress, you will be taught more about how to play Marapets and learn more about the different worlds, characters and features. The idea is that it will get harder as you progress and new levels will be added all of the time. We hope that one day there will be hundreds of levels!

Your progress level will be shown on a Shield that you can click on every page of the site, just above the Site Search. You can also show off your progress to other players on your profile!

Did you notice the change? Marapets has a new Logo design to celebrate our teenage years. We hope you like it!

A new Maraween Pumpkin Hunt has just started for 2017. It will last until November 21st. As you browse and play the site as normal, check out every page for a Pumpkin in a box. When you find it, click it and you may get a prize! These prizes are listed below. You may also win a Pastel Costume! The 250 different players who collect the most pumpkins will receive 1,500,000MP and a limited edition Carvey Trading Card. The next 250 will just get a Carvey Trading Card.

This year, 10 random players who will collect 100 pumpkins or more will win £10, 15 will receive £5 and 20 players will receive £2 Account Upgrade Credits!

WARNING : Anyone caught adding fake pumpkins to their profile, signatures, clubs or anywhere else on the site will have their account frozen for the rest of Halloween and be fined for doing so.
