Cats like laser pointers because of their natural curiosity. For cats, it is difficult to ignore the moving little red dots, and cats are easily excited when they see moving things, because they are born like this. They like to catch fast-moving small things, because their ancestors relied on them in the wild. Make a living by catching small, fast-moving animals.
Precautions when using a laser pen to play with kittens:
1. Be sure to pay attention to safety when teasing cats with a laser pen. Never point the light beam at the cat's eyes. High-intensity laser pointers will burn the cat's eyeballs and cause permanent damage.
2. If lasers are the cat's only game, then its frustration will begin to accumulate because it will never be able to catch its prey. Therefore, in order to prevent the cat from becoming depressed, it is necessary to promptly provide snack rewards or other physical cat toys for the cat to play with after using the laser to tease the cat, such as catnip toys, cat teasing sticks, etc.
3. Do not tease the laser pointer by shining it on reflective objects, such as mirrors, smooth marble floors, etc. Because if the reflected little red dots shine into the cat’s eyes, they are also likely to cause damage.
