What is a Zhu Zhu Pet?
Zhu Zhu Pets are electronic toy hamsters and they are so hot this year that they caused a scuffle among Black Friday shoppers in Indianapolis. It is said that the online versions of Walmart and Toysrus have sold out of them. Some retailers are still selling them, but at four, five, even eight times their suggested retail price.
These electronic hamsters has been the runaway hit of the recession-hobbled holiday season so far. The furry little, wheeled critters scoot around a Habitrail-like track, spin in a hamster wheel, and drive little hamster sports cars. The battery-powered pets coo and squeak and have a little artificial intelligence—knowing to make teeth-brushing sounds when they enter their little bathrooms, for example. "They're so real—without the mess," chirps a television commercial.
