(Warning: I use mild hatred towards Zhu Zhu Pets in this post. If you’re one of those sheeple who think they walk on water, you might want to skip this post.).

About a month ago, we were one of the lucky families to find one of the ever-coveted Zhu Zhu Pets. We ended up with the little white faux hamster, named “Chunk”.
