\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A Chinese Youtuber with money to burn and more spare time than most has constructed a working miniature subway system for his cat.<\/p>\n

Xing Zhilei, who has a background in engineering, said the subway took four months to complete. He explained the idea came after viewers asked him to take on a new challenge following the popularity of a video uploaded two years ago when he built a house for his furry friend, Mr Nice. <\/p>\n

Xing faced two main technical hurdles: synchronising the opening of train and platform doors, and creating a functioning miniature escalator. After months of unsuccessfully tackling these problems, he decided to begin the project regardless, aiming to iron out the details as he progressed. <\/p>\n

Hardly a textbook example of successful project planning, once he decided to push ahead, the project came together successfully and with strikingly realistic results.<\/p>\n

A video of the project posted online in China passed 100 million views within the first two days and has already attracted close to one million views on X. <\/p>\n

Xing’s previous accomplishments included building a supermarket, cinema, and island getaway for his pets.<\/p>\n
