I bought this laser light with the intent of using it for my cats but FORGET about it!! My yorkies LOVE to chase the light...I mean they cannot get enough of this silly red dot!! They will chase it until they are out of breath!! Great for the little ones that dont like going for walks!! Its hilarious and really worth the price!! I got mine on ebay but I know you can get it at Petsmart too!! Its made by Petstages!!

i have one...but we only play with it on special occasions... it became an obsession for beagle to the point where she now chases any kind of light she sees. she knows where its kept and will sit next to the drawer and cry...

That sounds so cute, I bet they really get exhausted?

For My Coby · 01-01-2008, 05:47 PM

I really want one, but I have one question..... do they ever get frustrated because they will NEVER actually be rewarded with getting it. Or is the chase TRULY the reward in itself? ......... guess this shows what a pushover I am during tug o' war, huh (even tho all trainers tell you not to).

TurtleDove · 01-01-2008, 08:54 PM

How fun! What is it called & how much did you get it for?

I can see how it can become an obsession...when I put the light away it takes them about 5-10 mins to stop looking for the light...lol...with my ragdoll she actually thinks she has caught the light under her paw and slowly lifts it up and low and behold she hasnt caught it at all...

They dont seem frustrated to me at all...they love just chasing it around...Reece has finally figured out im the keeper of the light so he knows when he sees me get out the light toy that its time to chase..Soleil still dosent realize where the light comes from..I thought when Reece saw me with the light the fun would be over but not at all he still loves it...

Its just called a laser light by Petstages..you can buy it at Petsmart or off ebay..I think I paid 4.00 on ebay and it sells for 12.99 canadian at Petsmart so probably about 10.00 american??

Sounds like you guys are having a lot of fun with your laser light. I have a regular laser pointer with the different tips -- not a cute one like you have. My guys are intent upon getting the pointer -- I can't seem to get them to track the light

they go straight for the pointer in my hand.

Would love to see a video.
