There’s not much doubt that Zhu Zhu Pets – the family of five robotic hamsters which feature artificial intelligence which allows them to interact with children and their environment – are the must have toy for Christmas 2009.  They are in such high demand that Toys R Us have not listed them in their Christmas 2009 catalog in order to avoid disappointing prospective buyers.

The Zhu Zhu hamsters are Mr. Squiggles, Pipsqueak, Num Nums, Patches and Chunk. As well as the hamsters themselves there is a broad range of accessories and toys on offer which can be used in a variety of different ways and which encourage the kids to use their imagination to the full.

The Zhu Zhu pets are aimed at children in the age range of 4 to 10 years old and appeal to both boys and girls. They are not suitable for very small children due to the fact that they contain both moving parts and batteries.

Cepia, the manufacturers, were founded in 2004 and are based in St. Louis. Since their launch in August of 2009, six million Zhu Zhu Pets have shipped. An additional six million unit sales are forecast between now and Christmas 2009. The hamsters are currently spending an average of less than three minutes on the shelves before being snapped up. It’s fair to say that demand is high. 

Prices are rising, both for the hamsters and the accompanying accessories, and you can already find them on eBay at prices higher than retail. Prices will probably increase even more as we get closer to Christmas.

Cepia are predicting sales of between $ 300 and $ 400 million over the next twelve months. This will be from not only the Zhu Zhu hamsters – they intend to expand their range to include hedgehogs, squirrels, chipmunks and rabbits. No doubt any small, cute and furry woodland animal which would appeal to children might find its way onto their list in the future.
