If you didn't see my post in Fun Stuff, yesterday was my birthday and Rocko decided to surprise me by running on his wheel for the first time! It made me soo happy because I was afraid he would never learn and would be a fattie. :lol:

Anyway, the Comfort Wheel was really loud, and Rocko was running on it for at least three hours. I want to get him something more quiet. Also, this morning was the first time I had to clean a poopy wheel, and it's practically impossible to get that thing clean. I just want a wheel that is better for both me and him, and now that I know he'll run on the wheel, I'm willing to spend more money on a good quality one.

Ever since I first started researching supplies, I've really liked the Cake Walk Supreme. I always figured that if Rocko liked wheeling, I would get him one. But I researched it on this forum and saw that people have been having a lot of trouble ordering them and not receiving them.

Would you still recommend that I order one? Is it worth it to wait, or should I try ordering a bucket wheel instead? Two months of loud Comfort Wheel sounds all night and desperately trying to clean the poop off it doesn't sound appealing..

Try putting a gob of Vaseline on both ends of the shaft of the Comfort wheel. It will help quiet it. Also, a hair scrunchy around the frame for it to ride on helps control any wobbling. Try the Vaseline first as it might just be enough.

I talked to Reaper yesterday, and he is planning on getting all the wheels finished by Dec. 1st. I think it wouldn't be too long of a wait, if you decided to order one.

Alright, thanks both of you! I'm going to go ahead and order one. They're just too tempting, haha. I'll do the Vaseline and possibly the scrunchie on the Comfort Wheel in the meantime, to save my sanity until I get the CWS, however long that may be. (Hopefully not long at all )
