Delightful, Innovative Zhu Zhu Hamster Pets
Cepia LLC is the manufacturer behind the much hyped Zhu Zhu Pets range of children’ toys. From their beginnings in 2002, the company has really focused their efforts on producing affordable, fun toys that push the boundaries of technological advancement. The company has a history of successful toys, including Glo-e, Hydro Max and Sky Raptors. However, it is without doubt that the latest range of Zhu Zhu Pets toys (often misspelled Zoo Zoo Pets toys and even Zu Zhu Pets toys) is currently catapulting the company to a whole new level of success. The lineup at the moment only includes hamster pet toys, but if the surge in demand is any indication, it shouldn’t be long before we see Cepia releasing other pet toys.
With five hamsters now available, each with distinctively different colors and contrasting unique personalities, each of them appeals to different children in different ways and either ends up being a well used and great fun little furry pet toy or just another animal toy that quickly becomes boring. If you’re looking to pick the best choice for your child so that they really can get the most out of these hamsters, then by understanding how each reacts and the ‘type’ of hamster they are, will allow you to make a great choice for your kid.
Mr Squiggles is the bestselling hamster of the lot and has pretty much remained in that position since the launch of Zhu Zhu toys. If your child wants a fast and furious little critter, then Mr Squiggles may be the perfect choice. Light brown in color, he perhaps resemble a real hamster the most out of all five. Mr Squiggles loves to scurry and scoot at full speed and has some hysterical sounds when he bumps into anything in his way. Pipsqueak is more or less the second most popular choice among kids but frequently topples Mr Squiggles for pole position periodically. Pipsqueak is a great soft yellow color that girls especially love.
Pipsqueaks, like Mr Squiggles also loves to go fast in explore mode, but settle her down and put her into affection mode and your kids will spend hours heaping care and attention on her.
Num Nums is the true lady of the lot and perhaps the most fussy of all the hamster pack. She loves to explore around and fuss over everything, making all of the sounds and noises that she makes so well. Don’t let this fool you though, in explore mode she is certainly able to scoot around as good as the next hamster toy. Num Nums has a passion for food and loves to spend time in the Funhouse hamster kitchen, kids love to watch and listen to all of the sounds she makes in there.
Chunk the surfer dude is what everyone knows this furry Zhu Zhu toy as. Available in snow white, this color is loved by girls and those boys that don’t intend to roll him in the dirt. Chunk is super laid back and not disturbed at all by the fast paced antics of the other crazy hamsters around him. Give Chunk an activity, especially the surfboard and this little furry pet toy really shines. On his board, he makes all sorts of great surfing noises and moves and both girls and boys love it. Girls also love the way they can slow Chunk down with affection mode and give him some attention after the surf has died down.
Patches is the new hamster on the block, but is not currently available to purchase separately. The only way that you can buy Zhu Zhu Patches, is by buying an included bundle. Bundles are changing all of the time, but a Patches Funhouse bundle and a Patches House Starter set bundle are popular. So, if you are looking for a less common hamster for your kid and want to buy some of the popular hamster accessories at the same time, then the Patches flower loving hamster package may be the way to go.
