Cat Wheels

There are many manufacturers of cat wheels, but very few are Canadian and with the shipping costs being very high due to their weight, buying from the US often works out very expensive.

Bundas Cat Wheels are made in Mount Forest, Ontario and cost under $300 plus shipping.

They are small enough to use indoors while being large enough for a regular sized cat to really play in it (my cat is 10lbs as an young adult and has lots of space still).  They have a carpeted track that allows good traction when running and are coated twice to minimise any damage to the wood.

Rick Yaegar, who makes them can be contacted directly through his website, linked above where you can also view their Bengals and Savannahs available for adoption and order their walking jackets, which are like a harness but without the buckles.

Outdoor Enclosures

Canadian weather is not the best for year round access to the outdoors, but for those that do take their pets out in the garden, the Cat’s Den and Doggie’s Digs by Habitat Haven provide you with the peace of mind that they can not be injured by wildlife.

The best of both worlds: the safety of the indoors, the freedom of the great outdoors. Our safe healthy habitats let you give your cats a happy wholesome active lifestyle.

Both regular and window enclosures for those with smaller spaces or in apartments are available with many different designs available and modular pieces for those who would like to design their own.

There are many add-ons including cedar posts and perches for your cat to scratch on or sit on, hammocks and awnings as well as a variety of doors.  The enclosures, which are meant for visiting the outdoors and not outdoor living are closed on all sides, are designed to be rust proof and have doors that can be locked when you do not want your cat outside.

Small dogs love to be outside as much as larger dogs, but face more dangers than larger dogs as they are more likely to fall prey to wildlife.   The Little Doggie Digs can hold dogs upto 20lbs and allow them to get the exercise they need to not fall into the small dog trap of obesity caused by less play time outdoors and more cuddles than larger dogs.

Like the cat enclosures, the dog enclosures are designed for play time outside and not outdoor living and can be designed to fit any space using their modular systems – either custom designed or using one of the pre-designed systems.
