for 100% eye safe lasers ( no worse than a camera flash )instead of lasers that will burn your retinas you would best consider a CLASS 2

My Cats love laser pointers to. I’m going to get a kitten soon, I know they love them. They’re so cute and intelligent at such an early age. My other cat died. I now have 2 and waiting for the kitten.

That laser is around 5mW. This company sells lasers up to 125mW (at a higher price, obviously):

I use a torch to play with my dog – she loves it. I have her racing all over the house trying to get it. We used to have one of those lazer pen things – but unfortunately she grabbed it with her sharp little teeth – sadly the lazer pen didn’t survive. Our maglite torch has no chance of getting ripped apart tho. Woo!

“A word of caution. I heard these lasers can blind an animal if it is aimed at their eyes. Not sure how true it is, as I’m no doctor, but thought I’d pass it on anyway”

Uppppps
What about the red spot of Sony camera (used for night)? It is a kind of laser too?
Mat, where your cat’s pictures are?

Here is a little information on hand held lasers :
http://observers.org/tac.mailing.list/1998/October/0215.html
Extract from the page : “Class IIIa . Output power between 1.0 and 5.0 milliWatts. These lasers produce beams that can cause damage to an eye before the owner of the eye can blink or look away. “Cheap laser pointers” generally are in this class as indicated by the label affixed to them. When hand held, these
lasers are relatively safe because they are always in motion. If the
beam is scanned past an observer looking toward the laser, the time of
exposure will be less than 0.25 seconds and theoretically no damage can
result. Still it is not a good idea to wave a laser beam of this power
level anywhere near an eyeball of a human or cat. Mounting any laser in
this class is dangerous because it presents the possibility of direct
viewing of the beam for a time long enough to cause damage. Possibly
PERMANENT damage.”
Sorry if I sound boring, but I am an animal fanatic, like most of you

Wow that’s pretty cool. I have a 6 mile view from my back porch and have a pretty good time hitting houses with my laser level from home depot. I have a 100 yard or so range with the red. This green one looks like a total blast.
