This is an old puzzle from when I had my own guild on Neopets, way back when they would let you link to other sites on pet pages.
I didn't really make it, I took an old puzzle and substituted Neopian equivalents. If you prefer, you can submit answers in a PM, IM, or just fill in the blanks on the form, please remember if you fill out the form, to fill in the "username" spot too, or else I will have no idea who sent the answer in.
I will also cut and paste the puzzle below.
I will supply a prize of 1000 gold, maybe a little something extra after I check my inventory(s) out.

Food, friends n cuddly petpets
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Five friends in Neopia went out to dinner one evening.
They all live in a row on the same side of the same street.
They all own petpets, and they are all painted different colors.
At dinner that evening, they all had something different to eat and drink.
The five pets are: An Eyrie, a Gelert, a Grundo, Poogle, and a Scorchio.
The five colors are: baby, cloud, fire, plushie, and rainbow.
The things they had to eat: chocolate fish, polka dot hot dog, seafood pasta salad, four dirt pizza block, and bangers and mash.
Their drinks: coffee, onion cola, vanilla shake, kau kau milk, and neocola.
And the petpets owned by the five: an airax, a whinny, an alkenore, a doglefox and a floud.
What you need to figure out is:
Which pet is which color, ate what food, drank which beverage, owns what petpet,and which house they live in.
(1st , 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th, - 1st on the left, and 5th on the right).
When submitting your answer, please make certain it is what you want to send BEFORE you send it. And make sure your username is filled into the spot...the form DOES NOT include any other information about you, so if you fail to fill in your name, I will have no idea who the answer came from.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanx!!! And have fun!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The gelert is the cloud colored pet.
The eyrie has an airax petpet.
The poogle drank the Vanilla Shake.
The plushie lives on the left of the baby pet.
The plushie pet drank kau kau milk.
The person who ate the polka dot hot dog owns a whinny.
The fire painted pet had the four dirt pizza block.
The pet living in the center house drank onion cola.

The pet who had the bangers and mash lives next to the one who has the doglefox.

I will also try to find a little gift for all who give it a try.
Hope you like the puzzle.
I will not reveal the answers for at least one week. I will see what kind of reaction this gets before setting an end date.
Feel free to make suggestions.

How long do we have? Sorry if I missed the deadline somewhere.

MysticfawN I'm working on it. Looks like I'll need lots of paper! My paper's a mess! I've got some of the answers, but not all, and I'm going in circles and feel like I'm missing a key clue. And my head hurts. neutral

I'm not at home so I don't have all my notes, but can I ask for a hint if I'm stuck? Like, will you tell me if the bangers & mash house who is neighbors with the doglefox and neighbors with the neocola pet, are those two opposite-sides-of-the-house neighbors, or the same one neighbor? I know the puzzle can probably be solved *without* that, but I'm stuck. neutral

I haven't forgotten about this. I've just been so busy with RL that I haven't been here much period. I do still have it printed. Hopefully I will get to it before this closes.

I am always here...
Sometimes I just fartwheel through so quickly no one notices.
As for the puzzle, I would like to let the one person who submitted an answer know that I am having some technical difficulties, uhm.. okay not really technical.. I lost the answers and have to work the puzzle out and can't seem to get my brain to concentrate due to the fact it is almost never used. I apologize... I honestly thought I had them in a folder somewhere on my puter, but I have searched and it appears this is not so. I should be able to focus enough in the next couple of days.
Again, I am sorry that I messed up. Hope you forgive me!
