Meepit

A meepit is a fictional creature as seen on Neopets. It is pink in its unpainted state (as you can paint neopets and petpets on Neopets) and is rather chubby, with short, stumpy arms and small feet. It has eyes too large for it's head and teeth that protrude from it's upper lip. It also has small, round ears. The Meepit is a petpet, which means that it can be attached to a neopet. The Meepit 'meeps' a lot, as that is it's only form of communication. The Meepit is widely referred to throughout the site as being evil and influencing. It is belived by some fanatics that the Meepit is behind all the evil in 'Neopia'. The Neopets Team (TNT) often references in the editorials of the Neopian Times, Neopet's e-newspaper, that they are 'controlled' by the evil Meepits. Meepits are sworn enemies of Feepits, as shown in the game Meepit vs. Feepit. This may suggest Feepits are fighters of 'justice'.

It has also spawned the term, 'Meep', a popular word throughout chatrooms and such. If you were losing on an online game with a chat function, 'Meep' would be an appropriate word to say. 'Meep' often signals despair, but 'Meeping' is also accepted as a random word to say when you are bored.
