Valentine Bouquets
Main Article: Valentine Bouquet 2011 A new Valentine feature was added to Webkinz World in 2011. From February 7th to February 14th, players searched for Cinnamon the Hamster in Kinzville Park.

Players collecting all the roses at the Kinzville Park and also collecting a red rose from the Webkinz Newz site received the grand prize bouquet.
Pictures of these items can be found in the (Picture Gallery) Kinzville Park.
Valentine Bouquets did not reappear in 2012.

History of the Love Kitten
Image:Lovekittencalendar.png The rumors of a Love Kitten date back to February 2008 when a picture of a cat covered in hearts (shown above) appeared in Quizzy's Calendar.[1] There was lots of speculation by Webkinz players on what this picture might mean, but none of it was confirmed by Ganz.
Then, due to a glitch with the Ganz eStore, for a few hours on June 4th, 2008, several items were made visible that were not supposed to be offered for sale. One of those items was a Love Kitten that was marked "Out of Stock" and could not be purchased. Ganz quickly fixed the glitch, but not before word had spread through the online Webkinz community.[2][3]
Shortly after correcting the glitch, Ganz contacted Webkinz Insider to request that the front page story showing pictures of the items be removed. Ganz also asked WI to "make it clear that those items are not available, will not be available soon, and may never be available."[4]
In 2010, two years after the Love Kitten first appeared in Quizzy's Calendar, Ganz finally offered it for sale in the Ganz eStore.
Accessories
[[File:Lovefrogkinzklipset.png For 2010, Ganz released a Love Frog KinzKlip. The KinzKlip came as a package deal attached to a Webkinz Love Frog. Like all other KinzKlips, this item's feature code gives players access to Zumwhere.
In 2011, Ganz released a Mazin' Hamster named "Cinnamon" and a Love Puppy KinzKlip.
My Page Badge
love-to-give-badge.png On Valentine's Day 2009 a new MyPage badge was introduced to Webkinz World. To receive this badge, players had to send a KinzPost note on February 14th with a heart-shaped sticker on the message.[5]
