One Fast Cat - Cat Exercise Wheel - Gen. 7 - Safe 48" Diameter - Made in The USA - Black Wheel with Black Felt Traction Pads and Solid Inline Wheels

I did a lot of research before buying this cat wheel, and I ended up getting this one and I am SO happy I did. The first reason why I purchased this one is because One Fast Cat does a 30 day money back guarantee, so if your kitty doesn’t take to it you can return it. That is worth it right there. I didn’t know if my cat would like it or use it so that was a huge plus. Also the reviews are great for this product, and the same price on their website! Plus different padding options and prints! It took about 10 minutes to put together (probably would have taken less if my cat wasn’t so curious about it. She was on it before I even had the padding on it), it is very easy to assemble. It is very good quality and very quiet (it makes noise, but not enough to hear in a different room) I have had it for about 5 months now and my cat is still obsessed with it. It is a large wheel but if you have the room, treat your baby. She also lost her little tummy within two weeks of having it. It keeps her busy, healthy, and she cracks me up! 5 months in and still in great shape, very durable and worth every penny!

So glad I bought this, only wish I got it sooner! I have three cats ( one 13 lb large 5 y/o, one 11 lb medium 5 y/o, and one 10 lb small 2 y/o). Initially, I bought this wheel for my 2 y/o because her energy is never ending and she likes to harass her siblings. However, my larger cat, whom I didn’t think would ever use the wheel, has officially fallen in love with it! She is on it throughout the day, while she hasn’t figured out she can run on it, she keeps up a brisk pace for a bit and it has actually helped her shed a little bit of weight in the 2 months she’s used it. My 2 y/o used it at first but stopped after she got a bit too excited and almost went flying off, however she has recently started using it again. The quality seems good, solid and easy to assemble. The instructions were extremely easy to follow along and I had it assembled alone in about 15 minutes. The paddings are soft and very sticky, my cats like to kneed it and nothing has budged nor torn so that’s a good sign. There is some noise, however, in comparison to a friend’s wheel, this one is definitely on the quieter side, I’ve never been woke up by the wheel or them running on the wheel. So far I have no issues with it, no sliding even when my cats launch themselves onto it. There was a squeaking noise from the wheels in the beginning, however after a week or so it disappeared. Definitely recommend and will update if anything changes.

Read update at bottom, I’ve had this about a month now, so far 3 of my 5 cats are now using it. Walking and running. Take your time training your cats. Go slow. I have been using a feather on a stick and a laser pointer. Train very slow. Any small improvement is great. Don’t force the training. I would definitely not recommend putting this on carpet! It will tip and the wheel will come off the track. I wish they would have designed it with a wider, stronger base!! My cats were totally afraid of it at first, then they got used to stepping on it, then walking, now it’s the start of running. For the very first time one of my cats got on it without any enticement at 2:30 am. It woke me up and was so happy to hear it. I still have a long way to go with training but I know now it’s going to be fun for my cats UPDATE, I put the wheel on a thick rubber mat from Home Depot, it fixed the tipping problem on carpet. It’s been almost 2 months now, 3 of my 5 cats get on it now and walk with some coaxing, 1 of them has decided “this is fun” My bravest kitty gets on it, starts walking then takes off like a tiny fur missile.. Training is slow but it’s worth every second,

Is this cat wheel more expense than the other cat wheels on Amazon? In my experience, yes. But, if you are seeking a well-made product that doesn't require a post-doctorate in engineering and passable knowledge of an Asian language, this is for you. There are no tools and literally no tools required (assuming you have hands). I assembled it about thirty minutes. You will need to be careful when placing tread pads as they won't likely come up after placing them. My cats haven't utilized the treadmill yet, as they seem to believe it is some type of Stargate that leads to a world where dogs rule the earth. If they decide to hop on it, I'll update this review

I bought this because my cat is overweight. This item is made in the USA and that matters to me. Excellent resources on acclaimating my cat. Easy assembly. And GREAT customer service! Highly recommend!
