The Dreaded Red Dot

I got a laser pointer. I had one many years ago. Da Boyz loved chasing the red dot. But then I heard laser pointers aren’t good for cats so I put it away. Recently I did some research on why laser pointers aren’t good for cats and found out you don’t want to point the laser too high where the cat could try to jump in a way that might injure her/him. (I used to do that to poor Theo who would try to jump up to the ceiling to catch the allusive dot.)

Kenta and Alias immediately took to chasing the red dot. Alias in particular didn’t want to stop. Norma was more scared of the dot than curious or wanting to chase it. I also read that I should let them catch the dot on occasion otherwise rising frustration might occur. So I let Alias “catch” the dot although I’m not sure it eased any frustration.
