I think if I had indoor kitties I'd try one,  it would make a nice bookcase if they didn't like it.  LOL!

I would love one for Lupin but no space for anything that big.

I think they're popular with owners of v active cats such as bengals. Eye watering price!

We have had ours approx a year. We ordered one from America. It took us about a week to fully train them and they use it every day.

I was thinking it would be great for the hoolies, all that energy to burn off ;D

How to make one yourself, although in a later video he does say it's a bit noisey so needs to improve the wheel mount:

Here's some other DIYs:

I would have made the back solid for this one:

Here's one that comes in sections that you put together:

This one is on Pet Planet in Ebay for £199.

On the Pet Planet website, with one good review and one not so good:

It's a shame they don't do dog sized ones.  Cat's have such neat things like cat trees etc, my dog is very jealous (he grew up with cats).
