I would get a Tiagra cassette for a turbo trainer. No point in paying extra for Ultegra when the main difference is weight.
They don't make a 12-25, but they do make an 11-25 and a 12-28. So decide if you're better off with more top end or bottom end (which will likely depend on your turbo and it's max gradient) and pick accordingly.
It should just be a straight swap, but you might need some more links on your chain for the 12-28, and you might need to adjust the B screw on the rear mech. If you're changing cassette you'll likely be changing chain too so cut size to suit.
Word of warning - component shortage makes it hard to come by anything at the moment. I find eBay seems to be the best chance of getting less common stuff at the moment if you can't find it in Wiggle, Merlin et al1 -
See your other thread where you posted the exact same question for further options..
The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.
