This Exercise Wheel for Felines Makes Use of Their Natural Hunter Instinct

— July 18, 2014 — Lifestyle
Making sure your pet cat gets enough exercise is an important part of being a pet owner, but now you can do it by treating your furry feline friend like a hamster with this cat hamster wheel. The One Fast Cat running wheel is an exercise wheel for cats designed by Chris Farley.

This allows house cats to explore their hunter instinct while getting exercise at the same time and maintaining their domesticity. This product is also eco-friendly as it is made out of recycled plastics and a 'closed cell EVA foam' that prevents catching claws. Currently seeking funding via crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, the cat hamster wheel is assembled at home and is easy to clean.
