What Are Zhu Zhu Pet Hamsters?
These are essentially toy hamsters. They are small furry little things that are battery operated so that when they are switched on they scuttle about on the floor in the way that a real hamster would. These toys also have sound boxes so that they can
speak and squeak. The range consists of 4 different pets which have their own names and personalities.
The names of the toy hamsters are Chunk, Pipsqueak, Mr Squiggles and Num Nums. This group of toys recently had a name change. They were originally known as Go Go Pets but the company changed it to Zhu Zhu Pet Hamsters. A lot of the packaging still has the old name and logo and these will be used until the stock runs out. Then the new name will be rolled out completely and will forever been known as Zhu Zhu pets .Once you have started off and bought your first toy pet hamster for your child, you will see that there is an extensive range of zhu zhu pets accessories to go with it.
Reasons To Get A Zhu Zhu Pet Hamster
If you are looking for a toy that children can play with and learn a little bit about responsibility, you may find great success when you buy a Zhu Zhu pet hamster. Some children will want to have a real life hamster or gerbil as a pet but they do not understand the work that is involved in keeping an animal well fed and clean. It may sound very exciting at first but when they have to clean out the cage everyday, lay down clean newspaper, replenish the hay and top up the water bowl a lot of kids will lose interest after a few days. They just want a cute little furry animal to cuddle and pet and watch as it runs around its little wheel. The parents usually end up with all the feeding and cleaning duties.
The real benefit of buying a toy hamster is that a child can be content all day long and there is no mess or extra duties that have to be performed. They will get exactly what they want, which is their own pet to look after and play with to their hearts content. This is an excellent compromise for both parent and child.

Zhu Zhu Pets: Review & Giveaway

So the other day I was trying to take a Darvocet-induced nap when I kept hearing this insane giggling coming from the kitchen. My first thought was that Jamie was having a tickle-fest with Simon because I have never heard him laugh that hard and for that long unless something was seriously hilarious. I decided to forgo the nap and see what on earth could be the cause of all the insanity. Turns out, the Fedex truck had arrived with a shipment full of Zhu Zhu Pets from MomSelect!!!
I love hamsters. They are adorable and funny, but right now we absolutely cannot bother with having another animal in our house. So I signed up to get a Zhu Zhu pet to try out because I thought they were cute, goofy, and might be hysterical to have because they are so weird. You know what? I was right!
Zhu Zhu Pets are the most ridiculously fun hamsters money can buy and the best part is that they won’t poop on the floor, pee on your hand, bite you, or die. Well, you need to change the batteries every once in a while (save the planet and get rechargeable ones!), but at least that’s pretty much the only maintenance they need. While I’d love to eventually let my children take responsibility for a small animal, having an infant and a three-year-old would make it kind of hard for me to supervise and make sure it gets fed, watered, and cleaned. I know I would be the one to have to do it sometimes, too, so I definitely don’t want that extra chore.
Ok, so what exactly is a Zhu Zhu Pet? It’s a robotic hamster. It makes cute noises and travels around its little habitat all by itself. You can get all kinds of add-ons like a skateboard, slide, and exercise wheel. Our favorite extra is the little car it can drive around. I’m pretty sure that’s what Simon was cracking up about when we first got ours. It makes car noises when it’s in the car zooming all over the place. And when it bumps into something, it’ll back up and go the other way.
The only thing about the Zhu Zhu Pet habitats that we didn’t like was that they were kind of hard to put together for kids. The plastic is rather flimsy and the sections of tunnels come apart really easily, so you have to be careful not to step on them or push down on the pieces too hard. Take a look at the pictures below to see what all you can get for your Zhu Zhu Pets:
