Hi everyone,

I found the info below on www.videoforcats.com

I went home, took the batteries out of my laser pointer and THREW IT AWAY - I was really shocked that I could potentially have been doing damage to my little darling!

---------------------
For people using a laser pointer as a light source, BEWARE, a laser pointer is a very powerful source of light and can do tremendous damage to a cats very sensitive eye. Cats eyes amplify light for night viewing, so the laser is much more powerful to them. Even the laser reflection off shinny floor tile can cause eye damage. Lasers should not be used for cat toys. Do not let children use laser pointers to play with your cat! Children do NOT understand what "Forever" means when it comes to permanent damage to your cats vision. It only takes a direct hit on the eye for a second or two and permanent damage WILL occur. Don't chance it!
-----------------------

I have bought one of those little "maglite" torches, and she likes that ALMOST as much - but it's no contest as far as I am conerned - I would never knowingly do anything which would hurt Ally in any way!

Hope this helps!

Julie
