Manufacturer’s product description
The Miwooyy cat wheel is a running wheel for pets.
Cat-friendly safety first – this cat safety concept ensures that cat exercise wheels remain a safe and durable addition to any home . It is a high-quality, smooth solid wood board with a flat , polished surface, eliminating the risk of splinters. The wide base with a lower centre of gravity ensures stability and a load capacity of up to 20 kilograms, making it ideal for smaller dogs too. Low-noise rotation: Eight modern silent pulleys with steel ball bearings enable quiet, smooth running – even at night or during breaks. The distance between the base and the roller is reduced to less than six millimetres to prevent paws from getting caught. This avoids potential accidents and makes the product a reassuring corner in the home. The cat wheel comes with detailed instructions and all the necessary accessories. An electric screwdriver is all you need, and two people can quickly assemble it. The overall dimensions of the product are 100 x 36.5 x 107 centimetres, and the wheel diameter is 100 centimetres. The product has been designed to allow adult cats to run safely and protect their spine.
In summary, this cat wheel offers safety, stability and comfort in an aesthetically pleasing piece of solid wood furniture – ideal for active cats and a quiet household.
