ahhaa, well i guess that is better then a wet cat toy being dropped on your face.Originally Posted by white cat lover
I can just see them "kitty drag racing" at 3AM!
Not a problem. I thought that was really neat.Originally Posted by taterbug
Oh wow!! COOL!!!Thanks for posting that link!
That's exactly why I bought it!Originally Posted by AddieBee
It's like a big hamster wheel for kitties and hopefully will be a great way to burn off some of that bengal energy, right?
Penny told me she would rather have the wheel that YOU bought - she thinks I'm a little cheap.Originally Posted by Pami
Penny needs to come over to our house to teach mine how to use the wheel
Were Penny and Max the only ones who tried it?
Ferris set ONE PAW on it the day after I got it, and when it moved, he ran away.Originally Posted by sarahp
I guess it's a bit much for Ferris still?
She really has, it's all too obvious. I told Kai Bengals that he ruined her for me, and that I would just HAVE to get a wheel at some point. Penny's personality has really perked up again in the last few days - she's tickled PINK to have this in our home!Originally Posted by Natalie_ca
Happy Birthday Max!!! What a great gift for him.... and Penny! I'm sure Penny has been really missing a wheel to run in.
Now you can look forward to being awakened at all hours of the night by the sound of a cat wheel
The sound the wheel makes is much like that in the video - as they are both wood constructed. The wheel is set up on the wall in the kitchen outside my roomie's bedroom, a couple rooms away from my bedroom. I can hardly hear it at all, and my roomie told me that the sound isn't enough to bother him at all at night, which is great.Originally Posted by Worriedmommy

It depends. Sometimes like in that video, but as this wheel is a smaller diameter than Penny is used to (it is 44 inches across,) if she gets going too fast, it will literally TOSS her out of the wheel from the top center. It happened last night, and the surprised look on her face was PRICELESS.Originally Posted by taterbug
That wheel is awesome!!But tell me....how do they stop once they get in a good run? Do they jump out or does it throw them out?? I've always wondered.

To be completely honest, I am NOT thrilled with the construction of this wheel, and will have to do some modifications to it to ensure that my investment in it lasts.Originally Posted by Kaylacat
Oh, out of curiousity (don't have to answer if you don't want to), how much did it cost and where did you get it?
I bet you do.Originally Posted by GingersMom
And to tell you the truth, every time I hear that wheel start up, I just get a big smile on my face.
LOL...if you read back through the whole thread, you'll find the answer to that question, along with the cost.Originally Posted by Duchess15
Nice wheel Betsy!I may have to get one myself once I acquire a few bengals....at least to keep them occupied while I am at work.Where did you get the wheel, btw?
