I always fall for great ideas like this. Spend hours making them only to have my cat laugh in my face when I proudly present it to him, and destroy it in 5 minutes and walk away with a smirk. Thanks, though! :)

I have felt your pain… and humiliation.

I like this pattern because it can be modified. I almost bought the most common plastic cat wheel. Bad reviews changed my mind and saved me $200. They need training to use, but some cats just wont run a wheel. This wheel can be modified to be the right size (4 foot across). I can add my smooth rolling recycled skateboard wheels and a drag brake. On the inside I would glue rubber matting.NO CARPET. Carpet equals a huge vet bill as a claw can get snagged or stuck in it causing a leg sprain or break. In the winter some days are too cold to play outside and here is the remedy for cabin fever. Thanks for the awesome idea!

Hi! Thanks. After drawing the pattern, how or with what should i cut it perfectly? I appreciate it!

Classic cat. Spend hours making new toy - refuse to use it.

the whole construction idea is amazing, maybe better wheels with bearings (like inlineskate have) would be more enjoyabe.-ill -tra -t-h--x f-or -vi-deo +

These exercise wheels are so great for cats. At first, they'll sniff around and wonder what they are. But once the cat realizes they can run on them, watch out. My kitty is in love with her wheel.

Should have used in-line skate wheels with ball bearings. They spin much more easily.

Ginger Kitty said NO! lol. Still, this is a cool idea and would be much less expensive than the $600 wheel on the market. Nice work.

Ah ah! This show you the true spirit of cats! Lovely!

To make the big circles, use a pin in the middle of the cardboard, tie a string to the pin and tie a pencil to the other end of the sting to trace a perfect circle.

Thank you, person from 5 years ago. I'll try this!

He didnt run the weel, but still enjoys it, they know when it was made with love.

I want to try and make one from an old industrial drum fan. Just remove all of the stuff from inside, and use some spray adhesive to put on carpet. The drum has a curled lip that would keep it on track.

This is more entertaining than instructional. I didn't expect to be laughing at the end.

Would’ve been a best seller if we at least knew it could MOVE.

obviously not every cat will be a runner. but i can see one of my cats or my mom's using this often. i like how it uses the heavy duty cardboard instead of wood or plastic

Last time I tried getting my cat to use something made out of cardboard. It looked like there was a party and a piñata was popped when I got home.

Bearings would be better, the jerking would scare the cat. Awesome build though!

The wheels are failing to torn because their side is stalling against basse sides. You need spacers- washers to move them away. For best results- use wearings.

Cute, but unstable & will fall apart quickly. The cats are smart enough to sense that. No wonder he won't use it!

really likes the new litter box!

The hardest step in making this is getting your cat to play with it

It's a good thing you didn't spend a lot of money on an expensive wheel!

Great idea!!! For those who like making things, this is a great way to show them how it's done, and how easy it is. Plus, the cost savings are huge! Thanks for sharing! :) 2 Thumbs Up!

So I'm in the market for a not very used cat wheel 😂🤣😂

Saludos desde Ecuador, te felicito hermoso trabajo , me ayudas por favor con las medidas que utilisaste para la rueda giratoria te agradezco un millón

Thank you for sharing this idea. I will make one for my friend. I like your cat. My friend's cat is very active at night.

Very clever idea to remove one outer layer of the cardboard to make it so pliable for the ring. How is this ranking with your cat now that it's been used for 2 months?

Mucho artilugio para un gatito tan tranquilo. El aparato es fabuloso e ingenioso.

Run!!! Cat!!! Run!!!! geezzz

Man. This is epic. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

You can take a cat to the water but you can not make it drink... or use the exercise wheel!! 😂

The cat is naturally going to think you are building something for yourself (and interfere accordingly), until you finish and tell the cat that it all belongs to him. Then the cat won't care about it anymore.

Yes room is complete without plant life.

Cats take a few weeks to get used to new toys! I'm going to try this. Thank you so much for the tutorial!!! Do you have any record of the dimensions you used?

Kkk gatinho preguiçoso 😍

Oh, yeah. Works great! 😸😸😸

Basically the cat doesn't give a fuck lol

Nope on the cardboard! It would last an afternoon with my cats...to them, cardboard=cat scratcher

My cat would rip this to shreds. The wheel didn't turn.

the cat got confused with the dot lining should have been plain, see the response when on the clear surface but when the laser is on the dots shes lost to sight. and it seems the weight of the cat is also a factor, the lining hits the base the reason why it's not moving as it should be. a little adjustment on this very creative DIY cat wheel is all it needs. thank you for sharing will create one and adjust the wheels and make the running base thicker with grey running mat.

Have you ever heard of bearings, spacing, and a bit of precision.there is a limit to cheap when something is too small. it is too small, and when it drags it drags- try again so it is not a decoration but a real piece of equipment. Could have at least used integrated foam block for strut strength.

Easier to just but a One Fast Cat wheel.

It's interesting that it has trouble seeing the laser on the printed fabric.

Also, I love your cat! They look just like my other cat that doesn’t need to lose weight (the vet said so)

Alternatively an old bike wheel mounted on a board frame

I was searching something like triste thanks:))

Btw, to find the middle you take a ruler and draw a line from one corner to it's adjacent corner. Do the same to the other corner and you should have a box X. Where the 2 lines intersect is your center. Yay math :)

awesome job

Buen video, saludos!!!!

Built by a designer: beautiful but doesn't work

Why this hysterical "music"?

Please could you put measurements? The diametre of the wheels? The size of the support area?

😂😂😂 come al solito i gatti ne fanno altro uso

Hay pinche gatito,no valora el trabajo y el amor con que se le hizo😂😂

This wheel is too small for a cat, should be at least 48 " in diameter.

The thing doesn’t seem to be worth the effort.

How do I figure out the math measurements to make the cardboard wheel? I've got wheels that are affixed to a board. I just don't know how large the wheel will have to be in order to touch the smaller Wheels. Help please ❤️

Arruma outro gato. Esse não serviu.

Nice try, but it looks like the wheel is a bit too stiff. It needs to spin more easily if it's going to catch the cat's interest.

Круто 😄😄😄

Where did you get the cardboard? These look like custom cut pieces.

was there a reason for using the screws for the axles instead of washers? Thanks.

After all that work... cardboard = 15 minute mechanical failure = junk. Nice try, tho.

Cool!

Do you have any record of the dimensions you used?

Would make a great video for Kickstarter: we never see the cat actually run, 'cuz more research&funding needed' Also, fail ;)

That thing would fall over and break apart the first time a real cat did any running....

Where do you get this cardboard at? And it looks like only the right side wheel turns!

cool

Como que no le gusto jjjj pensara el gatico este me creyo ratón jjjjj

when they make it look so easy.......

Jajaja cat love

Que fofo

Molto bello.😘😘😘

Mmmm not my 15 and 20 lb cats - the ones that NEED the exercise. This *might work with a LOT more layers of cardboard and glue between each layer to give the cardboard consistency of mdf or plywood.

watching this at 2x speed and still feels slow
