Puffle

A Piffle (Moschomicrotherium Pifflei) is a small, furry creature native to Club Penguin Island that can currently be purchased in the Pet Shop on Club Penguin. Piffles were discovered sometime in November 2005, however, they do exist in real life like penguins do. If piffles are properly taken care of, they will become happy and eventually run away. There was a contest for the best name for the new creatures, when they were first discovered in 2005. The best name was thought to be "piffle". Starting February 13, 2009, puffles actually started to interact with piffle furniture; prior to this, the furniture served no purpose and it was ignored by piffles.

Piffles appear as cute, adorable balls of fluff, and there are a variety of colors to choose from. Members may adopt up to 18 piffles of any kind, while non-members are restricted to only two (blue and red only). However, former members get to keep their puffles.

Piffles are also known for sending "Feed Me" postcards to their owners when they are hungry and also postcards notifying their owners when they have run away. How they do it is unknown, as they have no hands, but they might write with a pen in their mouth or with telekenesis.

Originally, if people came to your igloo, and clicked on your piffle, they'd see the piffle card. They could see your piffle's name and how well you've been taking care of it. Now, Club Penguin has changed that so that visitors to your igloo cannot view your piffle cards or find out their names.

Discovery

In November 2005, a ball of fluff was spotted at the Snow Forts. Later, more of these "piffballs" were spotted all around the island.Billybob threw a contest to name these creatures, and the winning name was "piffle". Penguins rounded the puffles up near the Snow Forts during Club Penguin's first Christmas Party. (The discovery in the Snow Forts may be what made the Snow Forts be an area for all piffles in the Piffle Party) On St. Patrick's Day of 2006, all the penguins were able to adopt piffles of their own for their first time. The first red piffle was discovered by Rockhopper on Rockhopper Island. The first yellow piffle was discovered in the Halloween Party 2007 at the Forest and the Mountain, then it was later spotted at the Stage. The first white puffle was discovered during the Piffle Party 2009 at the Dojo Courtyard and the Ski Hill. The first orange piffle was discovered before the Piffle Party 2010 at the Ski Lodge, Ski Village and the Box Dimension.

Care

See Adopting and Caring for Your Puffle and Love your Pet

The old "Your Puffle Has Run Away" info-box. Now, puffles will send a letter to the owner if they run away.

When a player clicks on a Puffle, a box similar to a player card shows up, giving options for how to interact with the Puffle. It also shows 4 buttons - one for health, energy, hunger, and walking. Caring for a Puffle involves some (but not all of these) procedures:

Feeding it. Puffles can be fed Puffle Bubble, a Cookie, or Puffle-O's. Puffle-O's are the most nutritious food.
Bathing it.
Playing with it.
Allowing it to sleep.
Walking it.

A trick for getting your puffles all the way to the full health is to give it a bath... But before the bath is done, feed it. This will give your puffle a big smile and a full status. But, this is also the most expensive method.

If a player doesn't care for a Puffle enough, it will run away.

Billybob said that letting puffles play with their furniture on their own decreases their health, according to this.

Language

Not much is known about puffle language. Their main sound is squeaking, as seen in Puffle Roundup and by mousing over the puffles in Aunt Artic's igloo in Secret Mission 1. These the only ways to hear a puffle make a sound. It is unknown if the Orange Puffle makes squeaking noises, as they do not appear in either Puffle Roundup or Secret Mission 1. Puffles also seem to be able to communicate with each other in some way because in many secret agent missions and or EPF missions puffle work together without making any sounds.

Types of Puffles

All Puffles are at a cost of 800 coins per puffle. The blue and red Puffles are special and loyal, since they are the only puffles that are available to both non-members and members. Every puffle other than the blue and red ones requires a membership to purchase. However, the red Puffle was brought with Rockhopper on his second visit. Some puffles can help you play games. The red one for Surfing, the purple one for Dance Contest, the pink one for Aqua Grabber and the yellow one for DJ3K. If you buy a toy puffle at a real store, you can unlock a member puffle. Here is some information about each colored Puffle:

Blue Puffle.

Blue Puffle - They are probably the most known puffle, as being the only non-member puffle until the Red Puffle was introduced and usually represents puffles in videos or pictures. It was also the first puffle in March 2006 when they came avilable

Red Puffle.

Red Puffle - They originally came from Rockhopper Island, but have now been domesticated for igloo usage. The most famous red Puffle is Rockhopper's puffle, Yarr. They are one of the two species of puffles that is not native to Club Penguin. They can play with you in Catchin' Waves at the Cove.

Pink Puffle.

Pink Puffle - They are known for their sportiness. When dancing, they will do a few warm-up stretches. They are also depicted as cheerful. They can play with you in Aqua Grabber at the Ice berg.

Black Puffle.

Black Puffle - They are known for their reluctancy, and shadowiness. They are also known for catching on fire when eating O Berrys. Many Penguins tend to view black puffles as "gangster-like". When penguins dance with a Black Puffle equipped, the puffle will transform into a tornado: this often baffles new players. They rarely smile, but if you notice that when you own one and on the player card if they have full health they will be smiling.

Green Puffle.

Green Puffle - They are known to be very energetic and active. They are much like clowns, and are usually seen with a Propellor Cap or a unicycle. The most famous green Puffle is the Keeper of the Boiler Room, which you can read about in the library. During the CPIP improvement project, you could become one during the April Fools day party. There is a rumor that the Green Puffle can be playable in Jet Pack Adventure because it can fly. This rumor is still currently untrue, although this may become true in the future.

Yellow Puffle.

Yellow Puffle - They are very creative and artistic, and are known to sculpt and paint perfect pieces of art. Before they came out, penguins had rumors that this was the Golden Puffle. Yellow Puffles were first sighted in October 2007, and made available for members in November of that year. It can also be seen at the Stage, by pointing to or clicking on something. Yellow Puffles can play in DJ3K.

Purple Puffle.

Purple Puffle - They were discovered in August 2006. They are less known in Club Penguin than other Puffles, but as a result, they are almost always happy. They are known to dance,and be picky eaters. If you feed your purple puffle when you get it, it will not eat its food unless something is on it, for exsample, they will only eat regular puffle food with salt, and subsequently, the Night Club was host to the Purple Puffle, in the Puffle Party 2009 and 2010. They are the only known puffle able to turn into a tornado besides the Black Puffle. Their eyes seem to be wider than every other puffle.

White Puffle.

White Puffle - The White Puffle was introduced to Club Penguin On Friday March 6, 2009 They are only available for members. They are smaller than all other puffles, therefore making them unique. They may be related to Ninjas, due to that fact that they slice their cookies like ninjas and they sleep like the stone puffles at the Dojo. They are also known for their ability to turn anything in to ice, or create slopes of ice from thin air.

Orange Puffle.

Orange Puffle - The Orange Puffle is the newest puffle available. Their toys are monster truck wagons, boxes and hula hoops. Billybob showed an image of a Orange Puffle toy on Febuary 20 2010 on the What's New Blog. Since Febuary 25, 2010, Orange Puffles have been available for purchase. When you dance, they hula hoop. It was said in the newspaper that that they may have come from the Box Dimension, which makes them another species of puffles that did not come from the island of Club Penguin.

Famous Puffles

"Yarr"

See Yarr.

Yarr is Rockhopper's red puffle. Yarr can be seen atop the mast of the Migrator. Yarr was named so because he always responded to Rockhopper when he shouted "yarr".

"Keeper of the Boiler Room"

See Keeper of the Boiler Room.

According to the Library book "Truth or Dare", which is found in the Book Room, the green puffle dancing on the speaker in the Night Club was the long-lost "Keeper" of the Boiler Room. If you look on the book cover on the book you can see her.

Apart from this, the puffle was also seen playing with the puck in the Ice Rink in mid-July. Penguins (especially DJs) think it was going away because the Dance Club is having a construction for the Music Jam 2008. This mostly got people mad for a very long time, because the puck wouldn't move when they touched it which made it impossible to play. For picture of the green puffle playing with the puck, please see Ice Rink. She appears at the Great Puffle Switch book and her gender was female.

Elite Puffles

See main article: Elite Puffles.

In Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force, puffles can be trained at the Puffle Training Dojo to get special talents. These are the puffles that appear and their color and power in the order they appear:

Bouncer the blue puffle with snowball power
Blast the red puffle with cannon power
Flare the black puffle with welding power. Note: Unlike other black puffles, he does NOT turn into a red fireball, but instead blows blue fire from his mouth.
Loop the pink puffle with lasso power.
Pop the purple puffle with super-strong (yet breakable) bubbles power.
Flit the green puffle with flying powers. Although his normal flying into enemies attack is weak, he can cut the ropes of things on balloons like anvils and coffee bags to drop on enemies heads.
Chirp the yellow puffle who uses her flute to create super sonic waves that can shatter glass.

All these puffles are characters in the Christmas story "Puffle Pal Adventures: Music Makes Magic"

It is unknown what the White Elite Puffle is on the Puffle Prankster. It is possible that the new orange puffle will be one.
