Nothing Happens

There are a lot of random events that are quite pointless and for entertainment purposes only. If you get one of the events shown below, nothing will happen to you, your account, or your pets.



Rumbling Stomach:
A very common event is one where your Neopet's stomach will rumble and they will want a certain food. Feeding this food they want does nothing special to your pet. In fact, you will even get this event when your pet is bloated and cannot eat any more food. The event below shows a Fizzy Quiggle Drink, this can be replaced with any other item categorized by Neopets as 'Food'. This excludes other categories such as Baked, Healthy Food, Pizza etc.

An interesting fact is that this random event can also ask for the Smiley Snacks that are for sale at the NC Mall.

Something has happened!
Your Neopets stomach is rumbling.... I think they would like a Fizzy Quiggle Drink! You better buy one for them :)



Nigel the Stockbroker Chia:
To promote people investing in the Stock Market there is a random event in which Nigel appears and tells you to invest in a certain company. This can be any of the listed companies, which one he picks is totally random and it does not mean that this stock will go up!

Something has happened!
Nigel the Stockbroker Chia says 'Have you considered investing in TPEG (Theme Park Entertainers Guild)??'



Ghosts:
Ghosts appearing doesn't necessarily mean they will steal neopoints from you. Sometimes they just like to stare are you, or try to frighten you.

Your pet:
Sometimes, your pet may appear to interact with you. Don't worry about what the random event says; some might say your pet wants food, while he/she is actually bloated. Others might appear saying that you don't play with your pet enough, while you just played with him/her. What the event says is totally random and not based on anything. The events will show one of your own pets.
