Small cat tunnel

Anyone know where I can get a small, cat tunnel that isn't crinkly noisy?
It needs to be lightweight so she can move it around. Similar material to the yellow used on the Cats Meow mouse chase toy preferred, like shower curtain material.
The toy is defunct now but she loves crawling around under the circle of yellow material but it's too small to properly hide under it.
She's afraid of the crinkly noises some tunnels make.
Now the nights are drawing in I'd like her to have something new to enjoy indoors. I'm sure she'd love this.
Any thoughts welcome:D

@Willow_Warren , I think it will take up too much room with 3 legs. I've just given away a similar one as it took up too much space, and if course, it crinkled.
I'm really looking for a single tube.
I saw one in the Range but it was noisy. She just really dislikes the noise. I have to be careful with black bin liners as she runs if I shake one.

You only get one tunnel, the photo is miss leading (it has two Velcroed together), it is quite long though. Hope you find something suitable.

Lola is the same with any kind of bag!
Oops, didn't notice that. I'll check it out next time I'm in the Range. I usually pay a visit every week or so. Daren't go more often, I spend too much!!

Thanks @lorilu , I did have a look on Amazon but couldn't find anything. I'll refine my search to 'pop up' tomorrow. There's loads on the US link you gave, so should find something here too.

Happy hunting! Incidentally Queen Eva has a crinkle Tunnel as well as the Cube. The Cube is a rotating fort, only brought out periodically, in rotation with others. The Tunnel is a permanent fixture. She also has a pop up tent (part of the rotation forts) that she has managed to turn portable, usually by getting under it rather than in it.. The Tent does not crinkle either. She is just such a Burrower!

I like those but don't have one, no room for it really. I was looking at something similar in my search.

However I would cut the dangling toy off. I wish pet product manufacturers would get a clue how dangerous things like that are.

I think these would be too dense for my purpose, I'm looking for one I can shine a laser through. If her laser disappears under something but she can still see it, it gets vigorously pounced on over and over. Hopefully that will provide some entertainment for her when it's too dark/cold to go out.

I'm wondering if a small bivouac type might be a better option. The ones I've looked at seem to have nice thin, crinkle free material. I can just picture Misty chasing her laser inside it and rolling it along the hall, but it has to be a small one as I'm running out of cat free space!!
Do you think one designed for a crab it would be too small. She's only a little girl at 3.6kg.
How on earth did rabbit become crab???
