Get Ready For The Happy's™! Amazingly Adorable, Remarkably Real Pets That Really Play With You!
From the makers of ZhuZhu Pets®
NEW YORK, Feb. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Meet The Happy's™, the amazingly adorable and remarkably real new line of interactive motorized plush pets introduced this week at the 111th annual American International Toy Fair®. The Happy's are the only line of interactive puppy and kitty special feature plush pets that play, can be trained to perform tricks and make 25+ silly sounds. Play "keep away" or roll The Happy's ball and watch them chase after it. Hold the Happy's treat and they'll come running. Each treat prompts your pet to perform a different trick like beg, pounce, follow, chase tail or spin. All Happy's treats work with any Happy's pet - so the more treats, the more tricks the Happy's will do! From the imagination of ZhuZhu Pets® toymaker Cepia, LLC, The Happy's are scampering onto shelves this spring, just in time for Easter.
"With The Happy's, we wanted pets that would really play with you and these little guys do that and more," said James Russell Hornsby, CEO of Cepia LLC. "We captured the playful unpredictability of a puppy, a ball and a treat and multiplied it! The Happy's play with you and with one another – get them in a group and witness a pet-palooza of pure magic."
"Heeere Happy's™"
Featuring the playful charm of a real puppy or kitty, The Happy's give children the pet they've always wanted with a magical twist. Just like a real pet, they can be trained to perform tricks and their play is unpredictable. Their world is magical, a little silly and, most of all, lots of fun.
- Magically Interactive: they can chase a ball, do a trick – even follow you!
- Terrifically Talented: these pets dance to their favorite Samba tune, drive a car and ride a skateboard
- Naturally Nurturing: they like to be tucked in at night in their own bed and blanket
