Width Connectors:

Your wheelchair will come with two width connectors (7″ and 4″). One is already installed in the back of your cart. If you need more width, the wheelchair comes equipped with a longer connector in the box.

The Front Harness

The cat’s head goes between the blue and black straps. The red strap goes under the cat’s front legs and clips on the side of the harness. The shoulder pads are made of neoprene and keep the straps and buckles from causing discomfort for the cat. Neoprene comfort sleeves wrap around the straps for the cat’s comfort. Comfort sleeves can be cut in half if they are too long.

Length Extenders:

Your wheelchair will come with two extenders (side rails) installed, which determine the length of your cat. The length of the extender should end in the middle of the cat’s front leg. It should not pass the front leg.

Wheels & Struts:

The wheels are attached to a metal piece called a “strut.” Each wheelchairs comes with either 4″ or 8″ foam wheels, which are great for all terrains. They feature a dense foam interior with an outer rubber layer. These wheels will not puncture, wear extremely well, and are easy to clean. Your cat’s wheel size depends on your pet’s measurements.

Belly Belt:

The Belly Belt will help support your cat’s back. It is not always necessary to use the belly belt, but is highly recommended for cats with a long back, overweight or elderly cats, cats with curvature of the spine, and cats with disc problems.

Stirrups:

Stirrups are used to hold the cat’s legs off the ground so they don’t drag due to paralysis, knuckling under, or foot injuries. The adjustable stirrups are positioned to hold the foot up at the hock. If your cat doesn’t need them, the stirrups may be removed from the wheelchair.

Tool Kit:

Yes! In fact, your cat’s wheelchair is designed so that your cat can go to the bathroom and get the exercise they need. Not only can pets pee and poop while using their cat wheelchair, but their wheelchair also actually encourages them to go. A “down” cat tends to be less active, which can impact the internal functions of their body. Once a cat is in their wheelchair, they are standing upright and moving more which encourages their body to function correctly and allow them to relieve themselves naturally.

How does it work?

Both male and female cats can pee and poop freely while using their wheelchair. The feline’s hind end is fully supported from underneath by their rear leg rings. The leg rings keep your cat in a comfortable and natural standing position. Although your cat will not be able to squat while in their wheelchair, they will relieve themselves while standing.

It’s easy to determine the right size Walkin’ Wheels wheelchair for your cat. We only need two simple measurements to choose the right size wheelchair for your pet.

No. Our wheelchair is designed NEVER to collapse on the cat’s leg or spine. We’ve gone to great lengths to be sure of it. The wheelchairs are designed with the help of veterinarians and rehabilitation specialists to hold the cat up, keeping the spine and legs in the optimal position for safety and healing.

What’s more, the purpose of the wheelchair is to give the cat exercise and the freedom to go outside and do his business. When the cat is tired, you should never leave him/her in the chair.

The reviews we have seen of the experimental sit-down spring-loaded style have not been positive. Although we have done a great deal of research, we have not found a safe way for a wheelchair to collapse on a cat.

Yes. The Walkin’ Wheels is designed to be used both indoors and outside.

If you have a small cat or kitten with shorter legs, it is OK for them to take a rest up against a pillow or bed. Otherwise, it is not recommended, due to back or disc issues that could worsen by laying down in the wheelchair. A cat wheelchair is designed to help your cat get the exercise they need, your cat should be removed from their wheelchair when they are ready to rest.

Yes, a cat does not need to be fully paralyzed to benefit from using a feline wheelchair. The wheelchair supports your cat to relieve pressure and reduce the weight placed on their legs making it easier for them to walk. We encourage your cat to use their rear legs as much as possible to maintain muscle mass and to get exercise. If the rear legs are paralyzed, then the stirrups will keep their legs from dragging.

Every cat and disability are unique, so is their recovery process. We have seen varying degrees of rehabilitation with cats using the wheelchair. Some felines have been able to improve so much that they no longer needed the wheelchair. While your cat is in the wheelchair, they are getting physical therapy improving their physical and mental health.
