Zhu Zhu Pets

Zhu Zhu Pets are the hottest toys to hit the shelves in more than a decade. Kids are wild about these toys, and this is why Zhu Zhu Pets are a must have item for Christmas this year. Zhu Zhu Pets are recommended for children ages 4 to 10 years old and are suitable for both boys and girls. Also known as Go Go Pets, these furry and adorable toy pet hamsters are a phenomenon. They are toy hamsters that look and feel just likes real pet hamsters. The enormous popularity of Zhu Zhu Pets is a testament to how much the kids enjoy these toys. Kids love little snuggly pets as well as moving objects. Zhu Zhu Pets combine these two elements to make for the most popular toy this Christmas.

Zhu Zhu Pets

Zhu Zhu Pets are not just toy hamsters, however. They are sophisticated toys that are programmed to behave, in many ways, like the real thing. They can make over 40 different sounds, navigate like a smart vacuum cleaner and be accessorized with everything from a tiny skateboard and hamster wheel to a fun house and a hamster car. Zhu Zhu Pets also seem like real hamsters because they are designed to be unpredictable. They don't always respond in the same way to the same stimulus. This makes them even more fun and exciting to the little ones. Even your family pets will get in on the act. Watching your dog and cat react to Zhu Zhu Pets can be just as much fun as playing with them.

Zhu Zhu Pets are also a plus for parents. What small child doesn't beg for a pet hamster? What parent doesn't know about the pitfalls of owning a pet hamster, namely: cleaning messy cages, expensive set-ups and supplies, accidental litters of unwanted baby hamsters, hamster escapes, hamster maulings by pet cat, and the always looming traumatic hamster death and backyard hamster funeral (hamsters live, on average, less than three years). Well, problem solved! Zhu Zhu Pets allow children to have the fun of owning a hamster without the mess, work, and trauma. With these little guys, when your children are done playing, you just switch them off and tuck them up into their cute hamster beds and blankets. No mess, no unwanted pets, no feeding or cleaning.

Zhu Zhu pets come with two built in modes: loving mode, which allows kids to pet them, love them, and then hear them squeak and chatter back. In explore mode, the furry hamsters scoot, scamper, bump and boogie across the floor or through their Hamster Habitat.

Zhu Zhu Hamster

Right out-of-the-box you can hear your Zhu Zhu hamster "chatter" and each will make its own silly noises when you press its nose. If a Zhu Zhu Pet is already "exploring" and running around, it will make a startled noise if it bumps its nose. It will even back-up out of the way, and then run off to explore some more! To let your hamster know it's OK to run around and explore its environment, press it on its back and watch it go! Zhu Zhu Pet hamsters love to run around and explore. If you want to calm them down and cuddle, you can pat it on the head or just press it on its back and you will hear your Zhu Zhu toy Hamster yawn and then go to sleep.

Zhu Zhu Pets are not just for cuddling. Children can also have fun watching them scuttle around all over the place. This is because each toy has an inbuilt battery operated system. Once you switch it on it will run around to its hearts content. The system is so intelligent that each hamster can detect when it is approaching something that is obstructing its path. It can then decide to turn left or right or to do a complete 180 and head of in the direction that it came from.

Another added bonus to these toys is the wide array of sounds that are tailored to their environment and by how they are handled. So if a child picks one up for a cuddle, they will hear the sounds of a contented pet. Or if the toy is faced with a barrier in its path, it will also make a noise. If your Zhu Zhu Pet is in its Hamster Funhouse and wanders into the bathroom, he will make flushing or teeth brushing noises.

Hamster Funhouse

Zhu Zhu Pets don't really show their stuff without some accessories. They are programmed to interact with their habitat accessories, so are much more fun with some gear! A good way to begin the adventure is with the Deluxe Playset Hamster and Hamster Funhouse Set. The Funhouse set comes with one hamster, the very exclusive Patches! This will get you started with a highly coveted Zhu Zhu pet and a funhouse environment. The package includes a large kitchen and living room, a hallway, and bathroom areas. This is the beginning of your Hamster Habitat.

Alternatively you can get the Zhu Zhu Pets Giant Hamster Funhouse! If your kids enjoy this initial set, then you will want to purchase the other hamsters, as well more accessories for the funhouse. This allows you to see the full "intelligence" of the hamsters as they play in their habitat and make interesting sounds and funny movements.

The Zhu Zhu Pet hamsters include: Pipsqueak, Num Nums, Chunk, Mr. Squiggles and the elusive Patches. Chunk is the cute white laid-back surfer hamster who is famous for his laid back manner. Mr. Squiggles is the fussy and finicky hamster who's been there, done that, and lived to tell about it. Num Nums is a super fuzzy friend that your child can depend on for laughs and love. Her highly trained nose can detect a carrot from a mile away, so stand back and watch her scoot to find some munchies! Pipsqueak hamster is super sweet and smart and is especially loved for her bright and shiny yellow coat. Pipsqueak hamster may be sweet and small, but this little furry friend has no fear! Patches is always on the go. She loves flowers and jumps at any chance to get a sniff of one.
