Zhu Zhu Pets Hamster Blog

After making a huge splash in the United States, Zhu Zhu Pets have moved into Canada in a big way! In only three days, more than 7,000 Zhu Zhu hamsters were sold in Toronto, at Toys R Us and online.

What makes these robotic hamster toys so popular? There are a number of reasons this is the must-have toy of the season. Of course, one big reason everyone wants them is because they are becoming so hard to get. Not being able to get something always seems to make it much more desirable, and the Zhu Zhu Pets hamster craze is no exception.

Over the past few years, interactive toys have become all the rage. There have been other interactive pets on the market, each one more popular than the last. These toys are popular because they mimic the behaviour of real pets, and kids just love playing with them.

Another reason for their demand is because of their relatively low price. Compared to other interactive toys, which sell for upwards of $50 and more, Zhu Zhu hamsters retail at $10 in stores (if you can find them) and around $25 online, making them an inexpensive gift. You’ll be pressed to get a real hamster for that price! Plus, with a real hamster, you also have to regularly buy food, cedar chips, a cage, and other accessories. None of this is necessary with interactive toys like the Zhu Zhu Pets. You get the “hamster experience”, without the actual hamster!

So, whether you live in the US or Canada, if you want to buy a Zhu Zhu Pets hamster for your child this Christmas, you’d better start looking now. Better yet, why not order online? It’s convenient, quick, and you will probably have much better luck finding one.

That’s right, the new Zhu Zhu Pets are here in time for Christmas!

Just like the original “Fab Four” Zhu Zhu hamsters, these newly released hamster pets make their own unique sounds and have the trademark birthmarks. In addition, each of the new characters includes their own biography so you can get to know their distinct personalities.

Fully compatible with existing play sets, pay attention for new noises as these new kids on the block zhu-oom around. It doesn’t take them long to become acquainted with their new surroundings!

So who are the new Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters?

	Winkie, who is black and white, loves a good workout. Make sure you there’s lots of space to boogie across the floor!

Financially, this has been a tough year for many. Retailers have not seen the sales they have in previous years, because people are being much more careful with their money. So, imagine the surprise of many retailers when they began seeing Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters almost literally flying off store shelves. It seems that everyone wants to get their hands on one of these cute little interactive toys.

Parents are buying these robotic hamsters for a variety of reasons. Of course, many people are buying them because they are the “in” thing this year, and their kids just have to have them.

Another reason parents are flocking to stores to get Zhu Zhu Pets is that it gives them a chance to teach their children about pet care without actually having to bring a pet into the home. Children, while not meaning to, can often be rough, and parents can teach them to be gentle by showing them how to look after their Zhu Zhu Hamsters.

Whatever the reasons, people want Zhu Zhu Pets and stores are having a difficult time keeping them in stock. If you find one, you’d better get it then and there, because it may be a long time before you find another!

There are six new Zhu Zhu hamster babies available for your children to love and care for. Just like real hamster babies, Zhu Zhu Babies need lots of love and attention, and are quite frisky and playful.

Here are the newest members of the Zhu Zhu family, in no particular order:

	The oldest of the Zhu Zhu Hamster Babies is Snickle Fritz. He comes with his own feeding bowl and spoon.
	Butter Cheeks has his own baby bottle, and his own rubber duckie for bath time!
	Muffin likes to go for walks, and your child will love taking him out in his little stroller. Make sure his bottle is tucked in with him, just in case he gets hungry.
	Pumpkin, who unlike his name is actually blue, likes to cuddle with his favorite blue teddy bear.
	Peanut makes quite a fashion statement in her pink nappy. Her accessories also include a baby bottle and rattle.
	Baby Cakes is the diva of the group. She likes to make sure she always looks her best, and her mirror and comb are always nearby. She also comes with a baby bottle.

Zhu Zhu Pets have taken toy stores and Internet shopping sites by storm. Children all over North America are asking for hamster pets this Christmas, and they are sure to want to add these six new Zhu Zhu Babies to their collections!

Expected release date is January, 2010.

So… you know all about Zhu Zhu Pet hamsters. Did you know that the Zhu Zhu Pet family has expanded to include Zhu Zhu Hamster Babies? These newest additions to the Zhu Zhu family should prove to be just as popular as their toy hamster “parents”, and your children can come up with brand new, imaginative games to play with their new hamster family.

Each Zhu Zhu Baby comes with its own accessories, and are just as much fun to play with as their predecessors. Besides being smaller, there is one other big difference between Zhu Zhu Babies and Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters: the babies do not have fur. Their bodies are made from plastic. For children who suffer from environmental allergies, this is a huge bonus. Many people (children included) are allergic to faux fur, and real fur for that matter, so for these children, these hamster babies are the ideal pets!

Unlike real baby hamsters, these hamster babies won’t leave behind any poop for Mom to clean up. This makes Zhu Zhu Babies the most environmentally friendly “pet” in the world! Now if only your children could remember to put them to bed at night so Mom or Dad doesn’t wind up tripping over them in the middle of the night!

Stay tuned for next when I post some better pictures and details about each of these new family members. If one thing is certain, it’s that the Zhu Zhu Pets family is growing and their future is looking pretty bright!

Every Christmas it’s the same thing. Your child asks Santa for a particular toy. What do you do? You go running all over town, usually in a snow storm, looking for the special toy. Guess what? It’s sold out everywhere, and all you can do is have your name added to a list in case a new shipment comes in. You’ve done all that running around for nothing! Now what?

Well, have you ever thought about shopping online? More often than not, you will find that elusive item you’ve been looking for that the stores just don’t seem to have. And you don’t have to go out in a snow storm!

The toy that is creating a fuss this year is the Zhu Zhu Pet hamster. These darling little interactive hamster pets are all the rage with younger children. This Christmas you’re sure to hear “Mommy… do you think Santa would bring me a Zhu Zhu Pet”, and if you shop online, you’ll have much better luck finding one, and at a lower price than in department stores.

When you shop online, you not only have better chances of finding a Zhu Zhu Pet, but you don’t have all the hassles that usually go hand-in-hand with Christmas shopping. All you have to do is place your order, and your toys will be shipped directly to you. If you have out-of-town family, you can usually have the order billed to you, and then shipped to anyone you want.

So, if you are sick and tired of pushing and shoving your way through the Christmas shopping crowds, only to learn that the popular Zhu Zhu Pets are all sold out, buy online. It’s a convenient and easy way to have a Merry Christmas!

Every year, we hear about pets that have been given as Christmas gifts, and who are often ignored during the holiday madness. Christmas is a terrible time to bring a new living animal into your home, but your kids can still have the “pet experience” when you (or Santa Claus) leaves an interactive Zhu Zhu Pet Hamster under the tree this year.

Zhu Zhu Pets, designed for children ages three and up, have exploded into the toy scene. These battery-operated, interactive toys are incredibly popular with young children. Don’t be surprised if you go shopping for one and they are all sold out!

Your child will love playing with their Zhu Zhu Pet and their many accessories. They will have hours of fun creating their pet’s habitat, which is very much like the real hamster habitats you find in pet stores. Your child can tuck their pet into its little carrying case with a blanket and bring their hamster pet with them everywhere they go.

Along with being a fun toy, Zhu Zhu Pets also help teach your child responsibility. They will have the fun of learning how to care for a pet and you don’t have the inconvenience of cleaning up after it!
