Unreleased pets
What does "Unreleased/UR" mean?
On the 18th of December, 2008, 4 special pets were released during the advent calender. These were pets classed as "Unreleased" because they were pets made for Chicken Smoothie that were never released at any other time but on December 18th. New 'unreleased' pets have also been released for every December 18th since!
But my pet says 19th/24th December, is it still a rerelease?
Yes! In 2009 the website went down for a large part of the day, resulting in people not being able to adopt. The box was extended until the 19th but those who did adopt on the 19 could not adopt again!
In 2011 a miscalculation was made in how many people got online to adopt the box, resulting in almost no older pets, but only much newer and less rare pets to be released. To offset this mistake and bring more pets into circulation, another rerelease was held on 24th of december with the same statisticics!
So far these are the only 'other' sdates for the 18th! 19 december 2009 and 24 december 2011.
what about store pets?
Store pets accidentally got rereleases once but have never been in the rerelease box since that time.
What do these "Unreleased/UR" pets look like?
2008
The 4 pets below made their first appearance in 2008 on the 18th of December. They have been also been re-released during the 2009 and 2010 Advent Calendars. The banana and the UR Cat were originally custom pets owned by just a few members. When released in the advent, some users deleted the banana pets believing them to be worthless, but later the rarity was revealed to be 'OMG so rare!'

How do I get an "Unreleased/UR" pet and how rare are they?
The only time you can adopt an "Unreleased/UR" pet is on the 18th of December. There is a random chance that you might get one of these pets, out of several other hundred pets being released from the same box, and you are only allowed to adopt from this box twice. This makes the rarity of the "Unreleased/UR" pets 'Very Rare' and 'OMG So Rare'. They are highly sought after, and are very popular, making them quite difficult to trade for.
The Zebras
How do I get a Zebra?
While Equimagine's lines were still being released in 2009 and 2010, there was a small chance you could get a Zebra from all the horseshoes she released. All you had to do was adopt her pets and hope you were lucky enough to get one and this system is still used with Yulynh's Horses and Ponies. Users had a 1 in 40,000 chance of getting a Zebra, and they are, collectively, the rarest pets on Chicken Smoothie. The Zebras are released this way because Zebras are Tess' favorite animal, and she wants to keep them extra special. Since the retirement of Equimagine's lines, and the arrival of Yulynh's new lines, the Zebras are only being released intermittently. They have not been retired and are not under the "Unreleased/UR" class.
On June 1st 2010, there was a mix-up with the way Zebras were released, and there was a 7% higher chance of getting a Zebra. This was rectified after about 10 minutes, but there were about 14 extra Zebras adopted that month. This [i]slightly[/i] lowered the overall rarity of the Mountains Zebra, which is the more common of the 3 Zebras. Although this isn't the only reason, the Mountains Zebra has had several rarity changes over the 2010 Advent Calendar, going down from OMG So Rare to Very Rare, then back up again. You can see all the fluctuations in the Rarity Changes Archive linked at the bottom of the thread
There are 3 Zebras. The Mountains Zebra, being the most common (but still rarer than the rarest dog), the Grevy's Zebra, and then the Mountains Zebra. And last, but by no means least, is the Plains Zebra, the rarest of the 3. I created the chart below so you can easily distinguish between them :)
Please note, the zebra's have now changed line-arts.
