One of the main problems with high powered laser and laser cats is the laser itself. Can glowing laser beams cause permanent damage to cats' eyes? Of course, you don't want the laser beam aimed directly at your cat's eye, but don't worry if you accidentally do. Cat laser Pointers and automatic laser cat toys usually have lasers in the range of 1-5 milliwatts, which are safe for human and animal eyes. However, not all laser Pointers meet specifications, so look for a model marked as safe for your pet.
Cats' eyes have been carefully evolved to track shiny objects and movement. These sparks are the equivalent of animal eyes and insect wings. Movement equals potential predator or predator. Lasers are man-made. It only manipulates these features, which is perfectly satisfactory for most cats. Cats love laser Pointers because they have chase and capture instincts. For cats, the laser beams mimic the activity of wild animals. The problem with laser Pointers, however, is that they are a game cats can't win. Your cat can chase the laser until it falls, but it has never been satisfactorily captured and unsatisfied.
