What Happened to OnlyCat After Dragons’ Den?
OnlyCat appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2026, Series 23 Episode 3. The business was a microchip cat flap. They secured investment from Steven Bartlett on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Martin and Tomas Rosinski walked into the Den in 2026 with a microchip cat flap. They were asking for £200,000 in exchange for 10% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Steven Bartlett offered £200,000 for 10%, and Martin and Tomas Rosinski accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
OnlyCat is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2026, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is OnlyCat Still Available?
Yes. Virtualv Trading Ltd appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
