laser pointer
I tried out the laser pointer that I got at the dollar store and I have
never seen anything so funny in my entire life. My boy cat who is usually the hunter just sat there watching the red dot, while my girl cat who is usually really fat and lazy chased that thing so fast. I laughed so hard. The girl was running so much that she started panting like a dog and breathing hard so I stopped playing with it I was afraid she would have a heart attack. She was still rearing to go and looked all over the house trying to find the dot. |

LOL Thanks for sharing. We love our laser printer and so do our boys In
fact the little one digs in the basket I keep it in to get it out and say PLEASE! Another toy our little guy absolutely LOVES is the disc shooter. He stands in the hallway, RUNS there the second he hears it gearing up. Then he catches the flying discs as I shoot them above his head. Cats, most of em, are so smart. This kid will bring me some discs when I announce we're done. He trots a few over and deposits them at my feet if I don't get up quick enough and clean them all up. It's a huge enjoyment for anyone watching. Occasionally I miss a disc, yanno, it gets beneath something and I don't see it or whatever. When I wake the next morning Tucker has placed any and all missing discs (once it was three) on my chair LOL They are a little bitten up, from his carrying them over, but they shoot just fine. It's even cuter when I see him doing it He's never shown any signs of actually chewing them up, which I see as the only kind of danger. Anyway, there's another idea for a fun kitty toy And thanks for sharing your story Hailey I tried out the laser pointer that I got at the dollar store and I have never seen anything so funny in my entire life.

Be careful not to shine it in their eyes.

In message (Foxsrus1) did ramble: Been looking for those...what dollar store? eBay I bought one of the slightly nicer ones that looks like a fountain pen and uses AAA batteries rather than the watch batteries (which I understand don't last too long with the laser pointers) on Ebay for about $8 including shipping. Some of the vendors that sell the laser pointers on Ebay practically give them away-the shipping cost ends up being more than what you pay for the pointer itself. As per all the other comments, my cats seem to enjoy chasing the dot immensely. |

As per all the other comments, my cats seem to enjoy chasing the dot immensely. Awhile ago I got a couple of laser pointers from eBay. I got a small one with a keychain hook that takes the button watch batteries, plus one that you described. I also got some replacement button batteries, dirt cheap. Someone had a card of 10 batteries for $2, and the shipping was pretty cheap as well. I got 2 cards, one for work and one for home. I still have about half the batteries left, and I got them at least two years ago. The smaller keychain pointers make a little jingly noise when I take them out, from the little chain hitting the side of the pointer. Otto can hear that noise no matter where he is, and he comes running. At work, Harriet also hears the noise. Harriet isn't a very playful cat, but she LOVES the laser pointer. When I feed my friend David's cats, I bring along a pointer. One of the cats, Phineus, is psychotic and has attacked my legs on several occasions. He also likes to plant himself by the door, preventing me from leaving. The laser is great. I shine it by the door so he can see it, then off into the living room. He chases it, I quickly open the door and make my escape. Liz |
