Featured Toy - Zhu Zhu Pets - Mr. Squiggles - Chunk - Num Nums - and PipSqueak

2009-11-25T15:21:00.001-08:00

Mr. Squiggles, Chunk, Num Nums, and Pipsqueak. These are the four Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters currently all the rage with children young and old across the nation. But why? Simple, these little motorized pet hamsters are the perfect substitute for a real pet hamster. The Zhu Zhu name comes from what these little guys do: zoom zoom around your floors and hamster city, squeaking, chirping, and chattering as they go. And when they hit a wall in hamster city (or your house) they chit chatter a little more and zoom off in a different direction. For even more fun, set your Zhu Zhu pet in their optional Zhu Zhu Play Sets (like the Zhu Zhu Pets Hamster Ball or Zhu Zhu Pets Garage) and watch them play in their "natural habitat." Afterward your child can pick them up to cuddle a bit before setting them to sleep (with the "off" switch) for the night. Buy a Zhu Zhu hamster or two (or all four) today and watch the fun ensue!
