Here are some Zhu Zhu pets review taken from Amazon.com
"I had never heard of this toy till recently and lucked out by stumbling upon them at TRU. It's really a cute toy, but the sounds the hamster makes are a little strange: rooster crowing, cow mooing, etc. Strange noises for a hamster, lol. My daughter really loves it, and it is adorable as it runs around on the floor. As the toy's warning states on the bottom, do not get this near your hair because it will wind it up on the back wheels. Also, it picks up fuzz and animal hair on the floor so you will periodically need to get some tweezers out to get all the crud out so it can resume normal speeds. Haven't gotten any of the accessories for this rodent because they can't be found.
That said, the stores do need to put a limit on how many you can buy then more families will be able to buy for their children rather than eBay sellers out to make a profit. When I got this one, I bought two - one for my daughter's bday and one to hold for her Christmas present. However, the store had a limit of 4. I think that's excessive in light of them being in such hot demand and short supply.
I hope I'm not in the minority who refuses to pay more than $[...] for these things (which is what I paid). Parents are nuts if they pay $[...] for this. It's not worth that much money, and your child will be just as happy with something else. Seriously.

"Me and the missus have been having so much fun with our new friend. We chase it all around the living room until we're so tired, all we can do is sit with one leg up, absent-mindedly lapping at the openings at the lower end of our alimentary canals. From where does Zhu Zhu get so much energy? Sometimes in nightmares, Zhu Zhu chases after me and there's no escape, cornered by deep, gaping black pools for eyes; the death spiral on his back rising up like the gnarled scythe of Charon himself! And me all out of coins and not having taken lessons in how to swim in a lake of fire ...
Excuse me. Sorry about that. I was talking to you about my new friend, Mr. Squiggles. He's a hamster, but I hope he wasn't ever anywhere near Richard Gere. Sadly, it doesn't say anything about that on the box.
Did you know you can buy wheels and funhouses for Mr. Squiggles? I can't wait till next Christmas when they come out with the sports cars. Everybody knows how much hamsters like to drive them with the tops down and smoke Barbie on the highway/upstairs hallway. It's even better if you get Mr. Squiggles, Pipsqueek, Num Nums and Chunk all together in a funhouse (only 1 left in stock on Amazon as of press time, folks) with a real funhouse-less hamster nearby, watching with eyes moist from rubbing them while constantly crying. It reminds me of that scene in "The Five Obstructions" when the director is drinking his wine and eating his 5-star restaurant pasta in front of poverty-infested kids in Bombay's red light district who, now that I think about it, probably don't even know what he is doing, having never seen wine or pasta before. So never mind that.
But I keep getting away from my point for writing this.
I meant to tell you that I'm very excited about the fact that, now that Squiggles and pals have been such a success (and what a deal at $80 or so a pop!), they're going to soon be coming out with the "Maybe You Get Some Cheese, Maybe You Get a Shock Fun Maze" and "Dangle a Feather on a Stick in Front of My Face Till I Go Crazy Fun Game." I can hardly contain my joy!"
