Zhu Zhu Pet Hamster

Zhu Zhu (pronounced zoo zoo ) Pet Hamster is the must have toy for the holiday season?

The Associated Press reports that Zhu Zhu, a toy hamster that retails for $8 to $10 could be the hottest toy for the Christmas Holiday Season.

Zhu Zhu Pet Hamster is already hard to find in stores and retailers say they’ve been impossible to keep on shelves. Laura Phillips, Wal-Mart vice president of toys, says the hamsters are hot:

As soon as we’re getting them in, they’re literally selling from boxes. It’s hard to get them on shelves.

Wow! The good news is - is that it's a $10 dollar toy and not a $50 toy!

Ready, Set, Go—better get your hamster before it runs away!

Zhu Zhu Pets - Excellent Xmas Pressie For Your Child

They are a brand new line of VIRTUAL PETS to be released this fall just in time for the holiday season. The Zhu Zhu Pets are basically little pet hamsters that impersonates a real hamster - they run around, they make noise but they don't require any feeding and more importantly they don't require any cleaning after them!

So parents, if you want to give your child a pet this fall, why not try a Zhu Zhu Pet! They make great Christmas presents.

The Zhu Zhu Pets ( i love the name!) run around randomly, they squeak and spin and get this - when they bump into something, a little button on their tiny nose activates a sound response, like "Uh-oh" or "Ouch!"

I can't see any reason why the children will not simply fall in love with this furry "pet".

Zhu Zhu Pets currently come in four different colors, and batteries are included, so your child is ready to play with it straight away. Buy the Hamster Village (which is sold separately in parts, you can buy it all or just the parts depending on what you want) and you have a virtual pet that will simply entertain your child endlessly as it runs around its hamster home or drives its hamster car :)

Here's is where you can buy them: Walmart, Toys R Us, and Amazon.com.
