Are laser pointers safe for cats
Since lasers often shine brightly, this raises questions about the cat's safety.
As a general rule, laser pointers are safe to play as long as the beam does not hit the animal's eyes.
A very bright laser beam can cause eye burns or temporary blindness in a cat.
Therefore, veterinarians recommend using low power laser pointers to entertain cats.
Such laser pointers are usually sold in children's stores.
In addition, you can find laser pointers in pet stores.
Specialty pet stores usually sell lasers that are safe for pets.
Therefore, refrain from using conventional presentation lasers to protect the health of your cat's eyes.
Features of using a laser for playing with a cat
A laser pointer is an effective tool for stimulating a cat's brain activity.
However, the animal may experience a sense of dissatisfaction due to the fact that it cannot physically grasp the object.
So if you use a laser on a cat, aim it at objects that cats can grab.
In addition, you can complement the game with your favorite treats of the animal.
If a cat gets a lot of annoyance when she can't catch an object, she may take it out on pieces of furniture or other pets.
Therefore, choose tactile toys for playing with cats.
Give your pet a tactile toy or food source when you are done with the laser.
