Buy Christmas and Hanukah items in Webkinz world for your pet this month. You can decorate your pets room for the holidays by buying Holiday items in the store.
The Webkinz Gorilla is retiring this month. If you are a Webkinz collector you will want to snap up one of these since Webkinz toys go way up in value once they are retired. Make sure to keep the pet in its original purchase condition with the tag on and unused to maintain the most value on the item!!
