Should I get a human sized wheel? www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-32415313

That's amazing, I know he went straight on it but I am wondering how you'd train a cat to use it? I'm also wondering why he just didn't let it out so it could exercise naturally? I know that when I use my airwalker or swim it helps my arthritis I suppose it's because it builds the muscles up to support it but if it's too painful it makes it worse, it's a catch 22 situation sit-up-1

People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right, the only difference is they're wrong

I think he may have been very lucky with his cat using it, it would need glass panels or something to confine Millie lol!

Millie's poorly this morning, has injured her paw, doesn't want her breakfast and is sleeping on my bed. I can't see any blood, I think she may have lost some claws but she won't let me look properly. She insisted on being out last night so I expect she had a spat with someone. I'm keeping an eye on her.

There's no way that Alf would do anything other than sleep in it. No way.

Being a chubby boy ... ahem a large breed ... Alf is likely to get arthuritis and my vet has already advised me to minimise and damage to his paws and legs. He often used to struggle to get back over the garden fence. He's very short of leg for such a big fella so it wasn't unusual for him to hurt his paws and limp. So I cut a pop hole in the fence.

He thinks its a grand idea. Mr and Baby Tink think I've gone soft in the head lol

She looks better now and wants her tea, still got a bit of a limp - could be for sympathy lol!
