Backpacks have come back!

Hey buddies. Katniss605 again! Family problems went down yesterday and wasn't able to get on the computer. But here I am!

Anyway today's new item is, well, actually a returning item. It's the backpack. It is nonmember and it sells at Jam Mart Clothing for 400 gems.

Well thats it. Make sure to comment and share :)

Vines and Weird Glitch on Homepage!

Hi buddies, this is Stang. This past week my time schedule was filled up, so I posted late, which I apologize for.

Today's new item is the Vine Anklet! It's pretty cool and like an animal item.

Here's a weird glitch I found when I was trying to log in. 

Here's a close up. Notice the weird words?

That's it for today, bye!

Cool High Tops and Katniss Posted! :D

Hi buddies! I went somewhere today. By the way, this is Stang. Anyway, I was busy and stuff so I couldn't post at a better time. My life is extremely busy but I apologize for my late posts.

Today's new item are the High Top Sneakers! They look really cool and if they look cool on animals too, I predict they will become popular among jammers.

Don't forget to check out Katniss's recent post (click here), which tells you an amazing trick on how to type after a period, exclamation or question mark on Animal Jam!

That's it for today! Bye!

Amazing Bonsai and Pets

Hi buddies! This is Stang.

Quick note: This must be one of the shortest post tiles ever 0-0 (besides Fast Post, Welcome, etc.)
I wrote that before I added 'Amazing' to the title. Bonsai deserved that.

Today's new item is the Bonsai Tree located in the garden shop in the Serapei Forest.

This tree looks amazing, and I am so glad AJHQ chose to make it an item. 

Here's what it looks like in real life:

And here is a pink one! :)

You are able to change the color of the Animal Jam Bonsai Tree. 

Here's Jammer Snaps on the DE. Pets! :)

Where do they post about the contests so you can enter them? Please let me know in the comments, as well as your feedback.

That's it for today, so bye! Share to support and don't forget to chat!

Sorry!

Hey guys! Katniss605 finally. Sorry about not posting. I've recently moved and i didn't know how to take screen shots on a laptop but I have figured it out. The wonders of the internet. ANYWAY! Since there's no new item I might as well tell about a cool free chat glitch.

So if you have free chat you know you cant say anything after you've done a question mark, a period, or a exclamation point right? Not anymore! Take "O." for instance. You cant do another "o" so you do Ctrl, Alt, and Backspace at the same time. And you can type after the period and stuff.

So that's it for today. There will be more posts to come (hopefully). Remember to keep jamming!

Quick Post I Am Really Busy

Hi this is Stang. My internet is horrible and I am very busy so here's a quick post.

Turns out, Katniss's family is still trying to settle down so she will be unable to post. I have something to discuss with you readers concerning our newest author but I will add more detail in my next post. It links Katniss's posting behavior with the Rate Katniss poll and the future of our blog.

Here's the new item, the Peck Portrait.

And I believe the jam-a-gram icon has changed. The little spiky balloon thing is now more centered than before.

Well, that's it for today! Bye!

Happy National Dog Day, Dogs on the Internet and Sir Alpha

Happy National Dog Day, buddies! This is Stang posting today.

I might have some trouble posting on time soon so I'm trying to get Katniss605 to post. I guess she's finished with the hardest part of moving and all that stuff.

Today's new item is another portrait, this time the Sir Glbert Portrait. Why don't other alphas have titles, for example Lady Liza or Baron Cosmos?

Today is National Dog Day, although for which nation I am not sure (probably the one AJHQ is in). 

Watch this informational video about dogs. It answers mystifying questions like "Why do dogs pant?"

You can even watch it with you dog. 

Dogs on the Internet! :P

Here's some replies from jammers. Didn't the name thing used to say their username? I don't think you can anonymously comment...

That's not it for today! More stuff on Fun and Extras! :)

Share to support, comment your feedback and suggestions and jam on!

Raccon Hyena Tail, Hula Eagle and AJ Warrior Ad

Why hello there! It's me, Stang.

Today's new item is the Rare Raccoon Tail, found in the Summer Carnival. That's a change!
It's really expensive. That's not a change XD

Here's the Daily Explorer post about it. This is one of the few times the animal is a hyena/ May it even be the first?

Here's how yesterday's item look on an eagle. It looks kind of weird because an eagle's lower half is a lot smaller than the top half, which is greatly extended by wings. (Or at least portrays the illusion of being immensely larger.)

I can't tell if this is a new Animal Jam advertisement, but it surely is and advertisement! :)

Warrior jammers, arise! :0

I will update some pages after I post this. (Sometimes people read the post and then look for the updates on the pages but can't find them because I'm still writing them.)

Well, bye jammers! Please share this on Google+, Facebook, or Twitter to show your support of this blog and also please comment. (Don't make this a one-sided 'conversation!')

Hi buddies! This is Stang.

Read the latest special post here!

We recently reached 100,000 views! Read all about!

Honestly, I don't know what to say about it. My brain is like, well, frankly I expected you guys to comment on the 100,000 Views post and be excited.

Here's a Daily Explorer post about Tavie the dolphin alpha. 

The new trading system has been going crazy!

Characters overlapping over characters overlapping over characters overlapping over characters overlapping over characters! (Try to say that 5 times fast!)

Everyone seems to like my Rare Glove...

Hey buddies, don't forget ot put on your sunglasses and ride the Crystal Sands watersides for a splashing good time!

I can't tell if this is a new advertisement, they just keep popping up everywhere! Actually today I saw another one!

That's not it for today, BAT OTTERS on Fun! :P

Hey jammers! I drew a pixel turtle!

Hi buddies! ^-^

Did you know you can play Sky High offline Animal Jam? You can just go onto the National Geographic Kids website and find the Sky High game in the games section!

I don't know if they removed it, though because this picture is kind of old 0-0

(Pages example ends here.)

And the page will include fun stuff for Fun, art in Art, Videos and videos, and so on. Most of the blog's workings is pretty much self-explanatory.

Another Huge Post: New Trading, Ladybug, and More Otters and Portraits

Hi buddies! This is Stang with another HUGE post today! More items, otters, new trading and some ladybugs!

Today's new item, as predicted, is another portrait, this time the Cosmo Portrait.

Thank you Lorelei Reiman for sending in this picture of the new trading request system. Now it shows to jammer so you can identify them easier in a crowd. 

I forgot to insert in the picture of the Otter in the Diamond Shop yesterday, so here it is. 

Here's how it looks like when you're buying it. 

Frozen! :D

Unfortunately I couldn't buy it XD

Do you notice the ladybug? It's crawling around the "Join the Club" button. I don't know why but I just wanted to show you guys it.

This post is long so click Read more to Read More. 

Otters are Here! Plus Alpha Portrait and Jamaa Journal

Hi buddies! This is Stang.

Do you know what day it is today? Update day! :)
This update the much anticipated otters have arrived! But first, here is the new item.

The Liza Portrait is most likely the beginning of a new alpha portrait series.

Here is the 125th edition of the Jamaa Journal! 

"The wait is over: OTTERS have come to Jamaa!These cool NEW ANIMALS can explore all of Jamaa's LANDS and OCEANS, and they can be found in the Diamond Shop."

Here is what the basic otter looks like. The name tag is on top and below is the regular animal player otter. 

Here is an otter with clothes and changed color, etc. Are there new otter pattern designs?

Here is an otter underwater!

Otter Actions!

Land:

1. Sit: straight back, kind of like how a seal poses underwater. 
2. Dance: Step side to side, and put your head under then bob upwards when changing sides. 
3. Play: Juggle fish
4. Hop: Just jumping, but front legs go up first and land first

Underwater:

1. Pose: Kind of just sitting on water, moving legs back and forth (the otters' legs are really short!)
2. Dance: move head back and forth while one front leg whips to the front as the other whips to the back, all in a rhythmic movement
3. Play: lay on back, throw fish up in the water, chase the fish as it swirls around in the water currents
4. Swirl: swirling around while bobbing head up and down
5. Dive: Dive backwards going downward, then shoot straight up to center of name tag

Antlers like Legendary and PVZ Leaf Fan

Hi buddies, this is Stang! :)

Today's new item is the Branch Antlers! It is found in the Epic Wonders.
Do the leaves change color with the seasons? That would be cool having multi-colored antlers!

The antlers kind of remind me of the Pokemon X Legendary, considering the theory that the leaves would change color. 

Notice the antlers.

There's two new items today, and the second addition is the Leaf Fan! This looks really great and, well, cute? I hope AJHQ turns this into a whole series of items. 

And this item reminds me of the Plants vs Zombies clover plant.
(If you were wondering about the title, PVZ stands for Plants Versus Zombies.)

Well, that's it for now! Today's post was quite different than earlier ones. Do you like this new type? Please comment your feedback! :)

Share to support and play wild, bye!
