If you haven’t turned on your television in a while or maybe were just out of the country, than it’s possible that you haven’t yet heard about the newest craze in children’s toys that is sweeping across the country. You may be surprised that it’s not a video game, but actually a hamster! Well it is an electronic, interactive toy hamster called a Zhu-Zhu Pet that delights kids by whirling, spinning, scooting and scampering around bedroom floors and and kitchen tables without the care needed to maintain a real pet hamster.nnZhu Zhu Pets are gearing up to be the hottest toys this year and are already becoming hard to find, months before the holiday season has even started. Through strong word of mouth and a great television campaign, Zhu Zhu Pets have already found themselves as one of the most talked about toys for the upcoming Holiday Season.nnWith cute names like Patches, Mr.Squiggles, Chunk, Numnums and Pipsqueek, the hamsters are the world’s first interactive plush hamster toys. Each hamster even comes with it’s very own personality: Chunk is mellow and likes to take it easy. Always in search of a snack, Numnums seems to be constantly foraging for food. Pipsqueek just likes to play and stay active as much as possible (great for tiring out your energetic kids) and Mr. Squiggles is always seeming to get into trouble, exploring the living rooms and kitchen floors of families across America. Watching them interact is really half of the fun as Zhu Zhu Pets are made to interact with their hamster friends and the accessories (which are purchased separately) and their hamster playset. The Zhu Zhu Pets are able to drive around in a Zhu Zhu car, and “speak” using electronic hamster chattering sounds.nnWith two different operating modes available, your child can experience a variety of exchanges with each Zhu Zhu Pet. Your hamsters will be most active when placed in the Explore Mode as they become curious and begin to move inside of their hamster tubes and dart along the floors of your kitchens and bedrooms. While in this mode, they will also enjoy interacting with your child, the pet’s environment and the other Zhu Zhu Pets themselves. When placed in the Loving Mode, your child will be able to enjoy some quiet time with their new pet as it cuddles and purrs as your child gently handles it.nnIf you have a child that you think is going to be asking for one of these adorable pets for the holidays and you would hate to see them disappointed, start shopping early as they are going to be nearly impossible to find in the coming months!
