Wild Kitty, Steel roller coaster in Denver, Colorado, US
Wild Kitty was a steel roller coaster with a single lift hill and several small bunny hills arranged in an oval. Its train made three loops around the track. It operated at Frontier City in Oklahoma City from 2013 until the end of the 2018 season.
The ride was built by Allan Herschell Company as a Little Dipper model and operated from 1995 to 2012 at Elitch Gardens Theme Park. Throughout its years of operation, it carried several different names including Wild Kitten, Great Chase, Tombstone Tumbler, and Cactus Coaster.
The ride's names tracked the park's owners: Wild Kitten from its 1995 reopening at Elitch Gardens, Great Chase in 1999 after Six Flags themed it to Looney Tunes, then Tombstone Tumbler in 2007 when PARC Management dropped Warner Bros., and Cactus Coaster in 2008.
The ride was relatively small, standing about 12 feet tall, and could accommodate approximately 100 riders per hour. This made it a good option for visitors seeking a gentle experience without long wait times.
The coaster's name changed with each owner: Wild Kitten under Elitch Gardens, Great Chase after Six Flags bought the park in 1999, Tombstone Tumbler when PARC Management dropped Warner Bros. in 2007, and Cactus Coaster in 2008. It moved to Frontier City in 2013 and closed after the 2018 season.
