The plan that goes with it
The 5am Zoomies Play Plan
The illustrated guide for this problem, £7.99. Included free with our kits and boxes.
The 5am sprint has somewhere to go that is not your bedroom door.
A large wooden running wheel for indoor cats who have more energy than the flat has floor. The listing gives an outer diameter of 110 cm and an inner diameter of 100 cm, so it takes cats of different sizes, up to 25 lb (about 11 kg).
The wheel is built from solid wood board, 12 mm thick, with a very narrow gap to keep paws clear, a wide base for stability and a silent wheel with noise reduction underneath. Mounting screws, a screwdriver and gloves are listed in the box. It ships from a UK warehouse, usually in 3 to 5 days, and it is a big parcel: about 107 × 43 × 19.5 cm and 20 kg.
How it works
- 1Make space first
Pick a flat spot with room to walk round it and away from the door. It needs a hard, level floor.
- 2Introduce it slowly
Leave it still at first. Put treats on the track and a wand at the front so your cat steps on, then steps forward.
- 3Never force it
Let your cat decide. Short sessions with a reward at the end work better than pushing the wheel.
- 4Keep play going
Add a play session before dinner so the wheel is one part of the routine, not the whole thing.
Works best if
- Your cat zooms around at night and you have the floor space
- You have a confident, active adult cat
- You want something your cat can use while you are busy
Skip it if
- You have a small flat with no free floor
- Your cat is very shy or very senior
- You need to return it easily: it is a 20 kg parcel
Questions about this one
Is it noisy?
The listing says it has a silent wheel and bottom noise reduction. We cannot promise it is silent in your home, so try it on a hard floor first.
Will my cat use it?
Many cats need a few days. Treats and a wand help, but some cats never take to it. Read our returns policy before you order because it is a large item.
How is it delivered?
It ships from a UK warehouse, usually within 3 to 5 days once dispatched, and arrives as one large parcel.
Is it safe?
The listing says the track gap is very narrow to protect paws. Supervise the first sessions and stop if your cat seems unsure.
