The ZhuZhus is about a young girl named Frankie Pamplemousse, her mom and dad, and her four talking hamsters: Pipsqueak, Mr. Squiggles, Num Nums, and Chunk. The group of five go on adventures in their town, Anytown.

Characters

Main characters

  • Frankie Pamplemousse (originally named Polly Pamplemousse; voiced by Jenna Warren) is the 8-year-old[10] owner of the Zhu Zhu pets.
  • Pipsqueak (voiced by Tajja Isen) is the first Zhu Zhu pet with yellow fur, and is the unofficial leader of the Zhu Zhus. She loves adventuring. Her birthmark is a shooting star because she always fires ideas in every way.[11]
  • Mr. Squiggles (voiced by Richard Binsley) is the second Zhu Zhu pet with orange fur. He is smart and loves science. His birthmark is a spiral because his mind is always spinning with new ideas.
  • Num Nums (voiced by Stephany Seki) is the third Zhu Zhu pet with purple fur. She thinks about things before she does them, due to being a sensitive thinker. Her birthmark is a heart because she always wears it on her sleeve.
  • Chunk (voiced by Robert Tinkler) is the fourth and final Zhu Zhu pet with sky blue fur. He is strong, stylish, and loves to eat food. His birthmark is a sun because when he smiles, he lights up the whole room.
  • Jilly and Bean are two naughty twins, the one with pink fur, and the other with blue fur.[12] They have appeared in the series.

Recurring

  • Ellen[13] Pamplemousse[14] or "Mom" (voiced by Stacey DePass) is Frankie's mother and a professional plumber for Pamplemousse Plumbing. She used to be part of the Power Badge Girls.
  • Stanley[15] Pamplemousse[14] or "Dad" (voiced by Zachary Bennett) is Frankie's father and also a professional plumber for Pamplemousse Plumbing. He loves music and was previously a Wilderness Teen Ranger. Thus, he knows a lot about nature.
  • Wilfred P. Kerdle[16] or Mr. Kerdle (voiced by Patrick McKenna) is the cranky janitor of Frankie's school. He tries to stop the Zhus from coming into the school and insults them.
  • Cindy and Mindy Gelato (voiced by Rebecca Brenner and Samantha Weinstein) are twins and Frankie's friends.
  • Madge (voiced by Brianna D'Aguanno) is Frankie's neighbor and worst enemy. She always tries to beat Frankie at everything. She has blue hair and brown eyes and a cat named Princess Tickyboo.
  • Whendy Sails (voiced by Nicole Stamp) is a celebrity and news reporter for Channel 5.[17]
