  2. My daughter saw these on TV. she has been saving for them, but we can’t find them in the stores yet.

  3. Hi my daughter has been saving her money for these, but we can’t find them in the store. Se would love it. Thanks

  16. I want to win this prize for my daughter. Every time she see’s the commercial she reminds me how much she wants this toy. If I win, she’ll be over the moon!

  17. A few weeks ago we found a real guinea pig in our garden. He was sooo cute. We took him in and got him a cage, little house and everything the little guy needed. In the meantime, I posted memos around the neighbourhood looking for the pets owners – I figured that he must have gotten loose and that someone was missing him. My four year old son loves animals and this little guinea pig was adorable. We explained to my son that we were trying to find the little guys family and help him get home. After 2 1/2 weeks someone came forward – they lived in a nearby neighbourhood and the pet had travelled quite a ways. I think a Zhu Zhu pet would be a great replacement for my son as we travel quite often. Thanks!

  18. I have 6 nieces and nephews (plus one due to arrive on Monday.) I work very hard to try to find them great gifts. I try to find gifts that the kids things will enjoy as well as gifts that won’t irritate their parents. I try to find gifts that are both educational and fun. Generally, their parents love the gifts I choose but not so much the kids. (Keep in mind I do ask the children who are old enough what they want.) For once, I would really like to get a gift that I think my nieces in particular would love. I think this is that opportunity. Due to severe allergies, the only pet the nieces (or the girls as we like to call them) have been able to get is a fish. It is a very nice fish but it is still only a fish. This could allow them to interact with a pet-like toy and not irritate their allergies. Plus, it would make them happy.

    Thanks.

  20. I would love to win this giveaway b/c my daughter has begged for a zhu zhu pet since seeing the commercial and at the time I told her I would get her one for her birthday, not knowing how hard they are to find! Thanks for the chance! Jen Muir

  21. I would love to win this for my daughter brenna cause we live way out there and even though i look for them everytime i’ve been to town latley i cant find them. ~Elisha

  22. I’ve searched every toy store in town and these things are never on the shelves. My daughter has been begging for one for months now. She got one of the accessories for her birthday, but still no pets to be found. To have one would make her the happiest kid in the world.

  23. This seems like a toy that would be easy enough for my two girls to SHARE! There’s something for each of them, they can trade off, and have fun TOGETHER too. This would be so cool!

  24. My sweet little Texas grand daughter wants this awesome pet. As a long distance Nana I love to send her little goodies via Mail. This pet would be wonderful to send to her. Her Mom would appreciate the fact it does eat real food or leave real poop.

  32. My daughter has been going crazy about these things since she saw the first commercial. I’d love to get these for her. Maybe she’d lay off asking for a real hampster! LOL

  33. My sweet, precious, and usually well-behaved daughter is over the moon for these darn hamsters. She actually cried yesterday because Christmas was “so far away!!” I’d love to have my name thrown in the hat!! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  34. I want one for my little sister. She would absolutely love one of these. Hope to win it for her.

  39. I would want a Zhu Zhu Pet because they’re cute (and I don’t have to clean up after them)! :)

  40. Gosh, who wouldn’t want to win a Zhu-Zhu pet?! Hmm, maybe if your kids live on Mars, and can’t watch the hours of marketing being hammered into their delicate little, toy craving minds! This is the ultimate pet! To sum up my story; It doesn’t poop, pee, or run on it’s wheel in the middle of the night. No waking up kids, or terrors or frights! It won’t get loose in my house, which is good…because hamsters are still pretty much…..a mouse! Kiss them and cuddle and play on the floor, no running away, no trips to the pet store! No chewing up the house, or nibbling on walls, no smell, yet, they still have the cute little clear balls, (the type that roll on the floor, people!,) to run and scamper like a real pet, but a lot of neat perks with no trips to the vet! We’ve hunted through Walmart, and raided Amazon.com, it seems Zhu Zhu pets are here, then they are gone! We cannot find one on a shelf, so will you please be our Birthday Zhu Zhu pet elf? My daughter shall turn nine on September fifteen, and a Zhu Zhu pet set would really be the rocking thing! Thank you for reading our little Zhu Zhu pet rhyme, and remember this website when you want to save a dime!

  42. My son is begging for a hamster, rabbit, or other pet. I can’t bring myself to embrace the extra work they would be. This seems to be the perfect solution. The video makes it clear these are cute little “pets!”

  43. My daughter would love these! Our Walmart stays sold out and these things are going so high on ebay we can’t afford them. I just think it’s so sad people are buying the store out and selling them for at least 5 times the original cost. Thank you for offering this giveaway.

  44. I would love one of these for my daughter. Her birthday is coming up and this is all which she has asked for. I know it would make her day if I could get her one ( I keep trying but there are just non eto be found in the stores around me)
    Thank you for offering up the chance to win one!!!!

  49. This would be great for my daughter for Christmas. It would be a great way for her to have a pet without all the mess that I always end up with. These are also too cute! Thank you!

  50. My daughter really wants one of these,ever since she saw these on the commercials,we can not find these any where,because we live in such a small town.She would be so happy if she got any of them.

  51. My 6 YO daughter Amelia has always wanted a hamster BUT has allergies…she went crazy when she saw these she said “Now I can have a pet of my very own to cuddle” Melts your heart…Thnkas for the giveaway chance.

  52. My daughters have birthdays right before Christmas and I can never get the HOT toy of the year because everything is always sold out.
    Please help!

  53. LOVE LOVE these! What a super giveaway! I have two sweet little girls that would LOVE to have these! Thanks!

  55. I am the mother of a 6 year old boy with ADHD. My son saw Zhu Zhu Pets on a commerical and fell in love with them. I would like to win these for him because he is starting to show responsibility and taking care of play pet can lead to him having more responsibilities and patience. He can start taking care of a real pet.

  57. My son would absolutely love a Zhu Zhu pet. He is such an animal lover, this would be such a wonderful surprise for him.

  58. I think these are so cool. My children saw the commercial and we went looking to no avail we are Hamsterless. Everywhere is sold out! Sad!

  59. Made a comment on the video. My sons want these very badly and already Toys R Us has put the set and box of 3 hampsters on backorder that I ordered. In fact, they’ve taken both off their website completely! If they can’t fill our order, then winning this would be really nice.

  63. My daughter screams of her dad every time this ad comes on! For some reason she thinks he has the power to get them! (mommy has the power:)! Thanks for the give away!

  69. I would love to win the Zhu Zhu Pet because my daughter’s birthday is in two weeks and she wants one of these really bad.

  70. My daughter was bit by her grandmothers dog last week, sending us to the emergency room for stictches and plastic surgery on her face..while waiting on the doctor, my daughter Cherish yelled for the hamsters she saw on tv. I promised that when we left I would stop and get them. Little did I know , Zhu Zhu pets would be sold out!! I would love to win her some, because she was such a big girl for the doctors, and that was her reward, and unfortunately mommy cant find them!!

  71. I would love to win this for my 3 year old son. The only thing he asked for was the zhu zhu pets for his birthday. I do not have alot of money and have been looking everywhere for them. I have found some online but the cost is alot more than I can afford. I would love to make my sons birthday extra special. If you do not choose me I’m sure whoever gets them deserves it and I hope their child loves them. Thank you.

  74. I would love to have a pet that I didn’t have to feed every day

    lkish77123 at gmail dot com

  75. i had never even heard of these till my daughter dragged me in the living room the other day and demanded i buy her one, then i come across this sweepstakes. i think they are really cute so i hope i win for Gians

  76. My daughters birthday is in September and all she wants is the Zhu Zhu Pet hamster. I’ve have everywhere trying to find one for her. It would be awesome to win this for her!!

  79. My daughter told my wife and I that she wants on of those “little mice things” that she saw on television. We wanted to get her something for her first successful week of preschool, so we went searching for the “little mice things” and found the zhu zhu pets. To our surprise they are out of stock everywhere we look. The sales person said they didn’t know when there would be more in stock. We told this to our daughter and she stated that she would wait for the zhu zhu pet rather than get something else. This is why I would like to win the zhu zhu pet.

  81. My daughter wants a hamster like the one she has at school. Ever since I saw the comercial for these I figured it would be perfect.

  82. My daughter is going crazy over these hamster pets! I would love to win one for her as she is doing so well in school and this would be the sweetest reward!

  84. I’m not having any luck housetraining my two-year-old dog. If I had one of these maybe I wouldn’t feel like a total failure. (They are housebroken, right?)

  85. I want to win becuase this is actually a life like pet, that my kids could have without making my allergies go crazy!

  86. My daughters would love this and these are impossible to find. Out of stock everywhere.

  87. My niece and nephew are begging for live hamsters. If they “adopt” these adorable lifelike-yet-synthetic hamsters, perhaps they will be happy and not have to opt for the live, smelly version! :o)

  90. My daughter has been asking for these…I’d love to surprise her on her upcoming birthday with these prizes!

  91. My son loves stuffed animals and rodents! Since he is not allowed to have a REAL hamster as a pet, he would absolutely love these. He hopes to be a zoologist when he grows up.

  92. My niece just turned five and all she asked for were Zhu Zhu pets. I have driven to Target, Wal-Mart, and two Toys R Us stores and none had it in stock. “Puhhlllllllease Aunt Crissy” is all she keeps telling me!

  93. I would love to win this because they look really cute and it would be nice to have for a Christmas present for my boys!

  94. I want to win this Zhu-Zhu pet contest because I’ve ALWAYS wanted
    a hampster,but my mom said no because it would be too messy.Now
    they came out with these,so now I can get them insted of real hampsters.

  95. My daughter watches the videos of them that are online a million times! She would go crazy on her October 8th Birthday if she had one to open!

  97. I added you blog button to my blog. Not sure why I didn’t have this already! Your blog is one of the first that I found…now I am hooked on blogs!! Thanks so much!

  100. I think that this would be a great way to give my kids the pet that they want without having to clean up any mess!!

    mellisarock at yahoo dot com

  101. My son absolutely loves animals. He carries his baby animals around with him all day, and sleeps with a pile of them at night. He saw these on tv and right away wanted them, and I knew right there I was getting him them for Christmas. Very saddened to find out they’re so hard to get :(.

  103. My little boy has allergies and is always wanting a pet! This would be the perfect solution!!! These are soooo cute and he (and the family) would have so much fun with them! Thanks for entering me! Good luck everyone!

  104. Ever since they appeared on tv, my kids have been begging for one. When it’s dinner, they come up to us, screaming “WE WANT A ZHU ZHU PET! WE WAAAANT ONE!” I tried to buy some for them, but they’re all stocked out and Amazon’s prices are overlooked. So I went researching for a raffle or something that and I ended up on this site. I can’t promise that I’ll tweet about it because I’m not that used to the computer and its wonders, but I’ll pray that we win and the Zhu Zhu Scream Headaches will go away with the playset!

  108. so i would like to get this for my two beautiful girls because our family has been going through so much here lately that we do not know how well we are going to be able to do for their christmas presents and this is one thing i know they would both enjoy.

  141. I posted a comment on your Zhu Zhu review. These pets are adorable. I can see they are going to be a big hit for Christmas and birthdays!

  142. My grandaughter saw the Zhu Zhu Pets commercial on TV and asked for them for her birthday.

  143. My four kids LOVE animals (real ones and toys) –it’s all they play with, so they would be all over these! We’d love to win!

  185. OMG these were the reason we started a Santa List-you aren’t kidding they will be hot htis x-mas. My 6 yr old is beside herself wanting them, her bday was in June so we already started our xmas wish list!

  189. I told my oldest son that we could not get any more pets until his little brother turned 5. (His little brother is 3 weeks old. That’s a long time to wait.)

  190. I ould love to have Zhu Zhu pets. We could play with them for hours and wouldn’t have to worry about getting “peed” on!

  192. Forget the kids! I want one for MYSELF!!!! Plus, my DH wants a dog (not gonna happen), and this little cutie looks like a non-shedder. Probably doesn’t eat much either, I’m thinking. Sounds like a perfect pet to me!! Oh, ok, I’ll let the kids play with it. Humph.

  200. My daughter saw this commercial and wants one for her birthday!! I hope I win! jenmizener at gmail dot com

  202. Wow! Looks like your kids were having fun with the Zhu Zhu pets and accessories. Thanks for sharing the video– it made me more interested in purchasing this item for my girls.

  204. I think my younger child would love this! We’ve seen the commercials and they are just too cute!

  209. I think this would make my daughter laugh and laugh and laugh. and say “you do it” over and over, then say “do it self” over and over. hours of entertainment! thanks

  210. Awesome giveaway! I would love to win these for my girls because every time they see them on tv they beg for them.

  214. both my grandaughters want to replace there Littlest Pet Shop annimals with the NEW Zhu Zhu Pets …..they are sooo trendy…..!!!

  218. My daughter goes crazy over the commercial. Would Love to win one for her.
    Love your site!

  224. I would love to win one for my niece b/c she wants a hamster soo bad but single mommy thinks it is too much for now. She would love those little pets.

  230. I want this because they are so cute and my son saw them on TV the other day and said he wanted one and he usually don’t want much.

  236. I’d love to win this to give as a gift to my friend’s little boy. He’d love it.
    wandanamgreb (at) gmail (dot) com

  238. B, I’m dying to win because my 6 y.o. asks me EVERY day when we’re getting these mysterious Zhu Zhu pets! I must stop the madness!

    Erin :)

  239. I would love one of these for my son because he recently became enamored with gerbils when we gerbil-sat. A pretend hamster to love? Close enough for now.

  240. I would want one for my 4 year-old daughter. The first time she saw the commercial she came running to me to come see it. She wanted it. I dawdled because I know we have DVR and rewind. She actually cried when the commercial was over and I hadn’t seen it. I’ve never seen her react like that to anything on TV before. I showed her I could rewind the TV and we watched the commercial together. I told her she should add it to her birthday list. Her birthday is in October so I’m on the case. She’s already asked for a real hamster before and we turned her down because we have big dogs and it could lead to disaster. Now I’m anxious about whether we’ll be able to find Zhu zhu pets in the stores.

  244. I would love to win this because my daughter is turning 6 next month, has always wanted and hamster and went gaga when she saw this commercial!! Bonus for me – no stinky cage to clean:)

  245. My daughter loves this commercial and I haven’t seen them anywhere in the stores, would love to win!

    Also, I subscribe to your blog via Bloglines!

    Keep up the great work!
    Susie

  248. I would love to win this for my daughter! I would enjoy them as much as she would since they come without the pet hassle=0)

  249. I would love to have a hamster without having another mouth to feed and clean up after, my kids would love it too!

  250. My daughter would love to have this she has been wanted to get a real hampster and this would be great NO MESS!!! Thanks for the chance to win.

  253. I would love to win one of these for my daughter! She has seen them advertised and has already asked for one :)

  257. It would be great to win this because my daughter Zoe would LOVE these toys for her birthday 9/18 or for Christmas. Also Zoe’s nickname has always been Zoo-Zoo since she was a baby…so a Zhu Zhu Pet seems really fitting. Thanks for considering us!

  262. I would love to win the Zhu Zhu set because my 4 yr old isn’t allowed to have any real pets just yet so maybe this would hold him over until we can let him get a live pet. he saw the commercial on tv for them yesterday and said he liked it.

  264. I would love, or should I say, my darling daughter would love these little balls of fur that wont be squeezed too hard for many reasons!

    Lack of mess, cage cleaning, feeding.
    No being bit, which real hamsters do often!
    The fact that its okay to ignore the Zhu Zhu hamster for a few days, no horrible consequences for that..

    And she is just a total animal lover at heart!

    Thank you!

  267. I would love to win this contest because my 5 year old would love this as a Christmas present. He loves animals, and this would be the best way for him to get the hamster he wants without me having to clean a cage! :)

  272. I would love to win this giveaway because this is the one toy that BOTH my kids are super excited about. They yell at each other to come and see the commercial if the other one is in another room and they just giggle when they see it. The reason I’ve been given for getting it is since we won’t let them have a pet of their own (we already have a cat and dog) ” this would be the perfect toy for us so we can have a ‘pet’ of our own”. They are easier to care for, no food, no poop, no smell, hahaha. Anyway, I would love to be able to surprise them with this cute toy. THANKS!!

  273. My sons have been begging us for a real hamster for quite a while. We are not ready to take on the responsibility of a live one so the Zhu Zhu pets seem to be an ideal compromise!

  281. I used the “tell a friend” widget and shared with all my facebook friends and family!

  282. I would love to win this because my daughter wants one so bad. Her Birthday is at the end of September and money has been tight since I am now a stay at home mom and my husband has been pulling all the weight. My Daughter has asked for every kind of animal for her 5th birthday and I have racked my brain on when to get her… this would be perfect!

  284. I’d love to win one for my daughter! She would FLIP out , I’d be the ‘good guy’, and you can’t beat free!! :D

  287. My daughter gets so excited every time she sees the commercial. This would be a perfect pet for her!

  288. My two little are so in love with these little guys since they saw them on TV – they would love to win this!! Thanks!

  291. We really wanted to get a hamster for a class pet this year but due to children with allergies in the building we could not get one. This would be super-fun for my preschoolers!

    :)

    I hope I win!

    ndisilvio @ gmail . com

  292. We have buried five — no six — hamsters. We have a small yard, and since each of the hamsters has to have a brick gravestone, it’s getting a little dangerous to play back there. Much to my daughter’s displeasure, we’re taking a break from being pet owners. This toy might lessen the daily whining for a new hamster.

  302. Because my daughter saw the TV commercial last week and are begging for it!

  306. I would love to win a Zhu Zhu Pet because ever since my daughter saw them on TV she has been asking for them.
