it looks like they will be running over little holes....what it the chance that their little nails will be caught?

My rats never did. They move so fast I dont think they really had a chance. Although my rats chewed the net apart unfortunately. Even though we had things for them to chew on. Could have just been my rats though.

What kind of pet do you have? I have this wheel for my ratties. They love it. The only issue I have with the wheel is how flimsy the PVC pipe is that supports it. It gets pretty bouncy and can move a lot if the wheel isn't anchored or wedged in by something. Other than that, it's a great wheel. The manufacturer also sells nail trimming strips for it too, which would cover up holes if you're concerned. I think you have to buy that kit directly from their website though.

Hey Angela, which type of pet are you asking about? Our wheel was both for 2 sugargliders. One weighs 2 1/2 oz and the other close to 3. They love love love the wheel. They have never had any problems in it. They like to run fast and hold on tight while they ride the wheel round and round. So funny to watch. Hope this answers your question

The holes are square and big enough that their nails don't get caught and small enough that their feet don't fall through.my gliders love this wheel and several use it at the same time.its very entertaining

Yes they will but sometimes they don't want to stayed snapped but all you have to do is slide a paperclip down over it so it really is no big deal. The kids love it when you play this game with them. They think it is so funny to see an adult with this on their head. Game is a lot of fun.

There is a circular opening on every side of the cube. So the girls legs may be anchored to the side walls for leverage or they may have them dangling through the hole n the bottom. Tons of fun !

They should be fine. There is a thick plastic bag (which holds the water) on the inside of the pillow and then "pillow " surrounds the bag. So they would have to have very long nails to get through...I would think. Its very sturdy to keep from leaking everywhere so I really cant see a cat's nails puncturing it.

I don't take them near that far. But if they don't want to cross a lot of open ground to get back (they don't like open ground) then they won't be back. And chances are a predator will nail them. I don't have a scientific test, but mice aren't dogs, and I seriously doubt that they will beat you home from a mile away. If you find out different, please let us all know.

Since they nail into the bottom of the legs, it should work. One hint -- drill a pilot hole smaller in diameter than the nail. Then it will nail in easier.

She won't escape, but it is possible she's get her nails stuck. This may well be the only flaw with this carrier that I can thin of.

They might. I'm not sure if they're that small though. A lot would depend on the depth of the hole.

I'm pretty sure you dont need extra holes. There are times that I've left them in there for a couple of days, accidently, and they are fine. But the trap is full of poop. I'm glad you're concerned about their welfare. They are so cute!

Probably not as they are quite aggressive and need plenty of support such as an arbor for proper support and growth.

Yes they do. There are some small pieces that may be small enough to be hazardous.

Oh I'm sure:) but cats are a bit more stealth! They might figure out quickly how to work around it. As long as they don't step heavily on it they'd be fine. It would be hilarious to watch.

Yes, but he/she might not want them on. They can be a bit tight for such a little head and they might fight it...

I doubt a digger's nails would get caught on the furry fabric. It is very soft and fur-like; however, it may not be tough enough to withstand a lot of enthusiastic digging.

I would think that it could mess up their wings. I would try some kind of net instead.

I'd assume her nails would puncture the tube. It's not flimsy or cheap but I know that my rescue dog has pretty sharp nails. I wouldn't trust it.

I think it is to trap the pest - because it is smooth they cannot climb up the side (they slide down) and are trapped.Please consider my preface "I think"!
