Well first let me begin by helping understand the classification of a pony. A pony is a horse that is under 14.2 hands. A hand is a unit of measurement used to measure equestrian species and is exactly 4 inches. Many ponies (like one I had during the summer) are used for pulling carriages either individually or in small teams. Ponies may also be used for riding and jumping but require a rider less than a third of their weight. Most ponies weigh anywhere from 600-800 pounds. Lastly, ponies have also been used for therapy. Ponies and miniature horses are less threatening to many people with disabilities causing them to feel comfortable in their presence. I hope provided the answer you were looking for.

How long should you lunge a shetland pony for if it is their only exercise for that day and what should the session consist of?
Lunging is a great way for a horse to get exercise and to also help with balance and flexibility. If it is the only exercise that a Shetland pony will get for a day, up to 15 minutes is the maximum per side. The next session should not occur until 24 hours has passed.
How much exercise does a Shetland pony need?
It would depend on the age of the pony and where he is kept. All horses (or ponies) that are kept in a stall need to get out daily if at all possible. If he is kept in a large pasture he will exercise himself to a certain degree. An older pony will need and want less exercise than a young pony. If he has pasture-mates, they will run and play together. But for riding 3 to 4 times a week is ideal.
Why does my pony cat leap?
The reasons your pony-cat may be leaping are as following: Lack of exercise There may be a disturbance in the air that your pony-cat can sense. Pony-cats can detect earthquakes, no matter how slight, and jump to avoid them. You may be upsetting your pony-cat. Pony-cats when having trouble breathing leap through the air to provide better inhalation. There could be small insects that your poor, malnourished pony-cat could be trying to consume for better protein intake. I hope your maltreated pony-cat gets some help soon, this is the first case of pony-cat leaping i have ever laid my eyes on. Get some help for it soon, or the consequences will ever be the same.

Do you have to ride shetland ponies or is it enough just to lunge them and give them the run of a field daily?
A Shetland pony can be ridden, driven, lunged, or long lined. What you do to keep the pony in shape and healthy depends on your individual situation. If you are too big to ride the pony you can offer to let a light weight young rider school the pony a couple of times a week. You can also lunge the pony for a maximum of 30 minutes per session and do this every other day to two times a week. Too much lunging puts undue stress on the legs and joints. Long lining or ground driving can be a good alternative and can be done any length of time. Driving in a little pony cart is another good form of exercise and can again be done everyday. If you wish to ride, but are too big you could also 'pony' the Shetland from a larger horse. This involves leading the pony by a halter and lead rope as you ride or hack out. There are also in hand obstacle courses for horses and other forms of exercise that can be done from the ground. A Shetland pony is typically a hardy animal and will do well on sparse grazing or hay with minimal exercise, but it does need to be worked at least every other day to two times a week, even when it does have access to a field.
