Cats Running Wheel from cardboard Cat Exercise Wheel Game trainer for cats

[@same5952]

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! :)

[@MrsShanonBrown]

I have felt your pain… and humiliation.

[@TomaMakoto]

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 +

[@MsMonas1]

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!

[@iotorito]

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

[@glenn212now]

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.

[@PHANPHOTO1]

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

[@jchacon9362]

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.

[@himeika]

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

[@jerrywhidby5259]

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.

[@grapecoco]

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

[@malikl3643]

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.

[@OccasionalInc23]

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

[@alohamilkyway3]

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

[@cristian.adragna]

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

[@GingerKittyASMRtist]

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.

[@tyrarathje1032]

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

[@digimaks]

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.

[@heatherskrzypiec2682]

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

[@rockets4kids]

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

[@Grey_V]

It's a bad thing it isn`t roll..

[@markfoster1520]

an expensive wheel has ball bearings....and works!

[@ornarvaezjr]

I'm going to attempt this model; however, going to use skateboard wheels

[@jawadad802]

title should be "cat trolling owners' cardboardcrafts" ...

[@stopthegop4894]

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

[@kriskipmartin]

WTF, no treadmill walk. i want my 6mins back.

[@adamh3795]

Fun fact: Cats love to chew cardboard... :-D

[@ratataran]

So true. My cat tears all cardboard boxes up for no reason

[@GeraldBlack1]

really likes the new litter box!

[@coddyclements2834]

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

[@shanel9939]

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

[@anonymoushacker6539]

4:30 to 6:00 Epic fail!

Anonymous Hacker lol.

[@lauraleon71]

Jajajajaja coincido los mininos no cooperan

[@sheithalhabsyi6165]

🤣🤣🤣 The cat too fat to run😂😂😂

[@militajryjoy]

The whole design is an epic fail :D the wheels are not fixed and do not rotate.

[@junbh2]

+sheith Alhabsyi Actually it looks like the cat's weight isn't enough to make the wheel turn when it walks forward. It's a bad design and doesn't work.

[@shar2533]

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.

[@SewLambitious]

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?

[@Yapu9269]

Jajaja como que el gato no quiere colaborar 😅

Just give the cat the cardboard box. He'll play for hours! 😻💜🌹😻💜🌹😻💜🌹😻💜🌹😻💜🌹😻

[@parisinthe30sx]

I've been wanting to purchase a wheel for my cats and fosters, but they are so expensive. this is a great alternative, thanks so much for the video

[@FBPrepping]

My cat would look at me in anger being like "Dude, U stupid?"

[@HagathaBroomstick]

Sorry. Theres no way thats gonna support a cat's weight over time. It'll fall apart in a week.

[@richardnelson539]

With my big (not fat) cats. I'd give the device 5 minutes before it was all over the room.

[@HagathaBroomstick]

@@richardnelson539 the cats don't even need to be big. It's cardboard. Cats SCRATCH and SHRED cardboard. ( then roll around in it)

[@jeroenvdbart4809]

Nice excersice wheel i had some ideas to make one for my cats out of wood

[@mikewelch3903]

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

[@MizukiUkitake]

Same cats love wheels, some cats don't. This cat does not.

[@asparrow9876]

More like some wheels spin and some wheels don't. This wheel does not.

[@Regular-Sized]

Should've used skateboard wheels and some nice bearings. Thing would spin way better.

[@m0nster_033]

Rudy Sanders thinking the same thing

[@Julie_b33]

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?

[@ThaBeatfreak1]

What kind of cat do u have???? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤣

[@neilburns6118]

So, where did you get the parts, how much were they and what dimensions?

[@paperwork1125]

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

[@gloriamonlas9567]

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

[@christianpatriot7439]

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.

[@davidturner4987]

My cats would quite literally destroy anything made of cardboard in less than 1 hour. It would be cardboard confetti when I wake up the next morning.

[@sillycrow3834]

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

[@yeahnah1951]

Basically the cat doesn't give a fuck lol

[@feynstein9593]

Built by a designer: beautiful but doesn't work

[@ivonneravelogarcia738]

Es presioso loare pare mi gatito que es un love

[@sweetgurl3548]

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

[@dulcecaramel3308]

Man. This is epic. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Nice place to sleep........

[@artemkras]

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

[@ritawashere5787]

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 ❤️

[@josephbohme7917]

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.

[@ThaBeatfreak1]

Sooooooo.... does it work????? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@HarPlayer]

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

[@SyafieraYamin]

The cat haha

[@thadmangulabnan4327]

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.

[@tomypower4898]

Yes room is complete without plant life.

[@ebbakopy5436]

awesome job

[@anokanok]

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

[@smjames4808]

I played this at 1.75 speed and it was still too slow.

[@shara-la8629]

Why this hysterical "music"?

[@kimdo650]

Can you post a list of things we need and directions?!? I want to make one

[@scottweiss9618]

Oh, try to find wheels with steel axels and ball bearings, or you will have the same problem this Wheel had -- so much rolling friction that they poor cat, as chubby as it was, wasn't able to get it to turn.

[@Quarkalamode]

And make it out of wood so it will last more than a day

[@twocoolcats2770]

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

[@ReptileRaptureRR]

Nailed it lmao!😂🤣🤣🤣

[@zauwee]

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

[@dragonmanmark]

any place that sells refrigerators have cardboard boxes that can be used to make this

[@estefanymurillo22]

Mark Taylor tnks

[@maybebe2246]

Really tx

[@jchacon9362]

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 :)

[@chill10142005]

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

[@RaeRaDeN]

Good

[@osllq9355]

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

[@timirisis]

Do you have any record of the dimensions you used?

Alternatively an old bike wheel mounted on a board frame

Oh, yeah. Works great! 😸😸😸

[@dGanja]

Great job! But it looks very unstable ..? Has your cat tested it in the meantime? Is your cat and the wheel still good?

[@YosenBMamma]

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.

[@smjames4808]

The wheels aren't going to move. Needs a redesign.

[@faresfaysal1391]

Thank You And me I Love cats

[@whitebuffalodesigns1963]

[@michaelhorn8962]

What are the nuts on the axels supposed to accomplish?

[@Huidos001]

These nutzzz michae horn

[@kendallevans4079]

That's my question also? They don't seem to serve a purpose. Also something needs to change to make it spin easier, bearings? different wheels?

[@nydiavera3955]

Me encanta, gracias por compartir

[@rhi-rt1sb]

You should ask to the cat before 😉😁😁😁

[@SatisfyHacks]

Nice!

[@faresfaysal1391]

Thanks

[@jackblack704]

watching this at 2x speed and still feels slow

[@artemisiapersephone]

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

[@soniaverso1424]

The wheel seems hard to turn?

[@adrianwalthall4870]

Get bearings from a surplus store and put them where the rod goes through the cardboard.

[@aaa-tm6sf]

they dont 3amt to run on some tired mill they want to hunt live things they want to be able to tun fast and hunt well

[@aaa-tm6sf]

they dont some feather toy but it does activate their hunt senses but it doesn't make them like hunt hunt sometimes when you see them catching birds or some amll animal you can see it

[@69BellaValentina69]

There is another video with rolling skate wheels, that is very fast and smooth

[@kendallevans4079]

Needs a 1/2 HP electric motor....get it spinning!

[@06yangji]

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

[@stevenmoomey2115]

My Cat would've knocked the wheel on it's side, terrorized the Dog and made it sit in the wheel for the rest of the day.

[@ShowMaker]

cool

[@elizamay6402]

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.

[@Midwest_Juli]

You gonna sell this design and save us lots of money and help our cats exercise? :)

[@michelleaceves1993]

I was searching something like triste thanks:))

Nice work. Kitty needs some persuation though. Maybe you should find a way to make it turn more smoothly?

[@vivianebisppo5167]

[@Blackwolf-tb4vs]

What are the measurements? I need this for my cats.

[@suchnothing]

You should measure it to fit your cat. Running wheels for any animal should be large enough that the animal can run without having to arch their back. That wheel was a bit too small for that cat, but it doesn't look like it'll be using the wheel for running anyways :P My cat would probably just sleep on it lol.

[@privateprivate8366]

From what I’ve seen, minimum diameter should be 48” to protect the cat’s back.

[@laxmidixit5733]

[@justtani]

That's fantastic, your cat however, does not agree.
