Re: Cat running wheel


It's like a hamster excercise wheel - but cat sized. The videos show the cat jumping on and off apparently quite willingly. Shame you cannot see it.

Re: Cat running wheel


What fascinating clips! They certainly seem to be enjoying the exercise . . . and jumping on/off! It's probably excellent exercise for indoor-only cats, especially active ones like these. I can't see my Persians going a bundle on a wheel like this though

Aren't they lovely, lithe creatures those Bengals?

Re: Cat running wheel


I dont need one for Troy when he wants exercise when its cold or rainning he walks infront of the patio jumps up, hits the keys and then washes the window with his paws then he does it again and again and again. This is the same cat that stood up outside again next too the patio and peed. I do have strange cats
