Zhu Zhu Hamster Toy Is Unsafe, Labeled "Toxic"

One of the hottest toys this Christmas Shopping Season, the Zhu Zhu Hamster, has been labeled as toxic by watchdog group Good Guide.

According to GoodGuide.com, there is an unsafe chemical called antimony that makes the toy unsafe.

The St Louis based company Cepia llc stands to find many consumers returning this product this year due to it's unsafe parts per million rating of 93 million in the fur, and 103 in the nose.

Although you don't have to return the product, since the danger seems to be in children touching the toy, and then touching their own mouth, or putting the toy in their own mouth, it is advised to reconsider this item as a gift.
