Whether your cat has destructive tendencies or you simply like to monitor playtime, this programmable cat laser toy is a good choice. It can be set to slow, fast, or variable speeds to match your cat’s pace. With its randomized rotation pattern, it keeps a cat guessing and encourages them to exercise. While you make some compromises to get a cat laser pointer this portable, the Frisco laser is a bargain if you’re looking for the cheapest way to try out a laser with your cat.

That said, laser toys by reputable brands are designed not to cause damage – which is why you should ensure you get your cat’s laser toy from somewhere you trust. From the moment we got this toy out of the box, we were very impressed by its build. Although it uses an abundance of plastic, it's sturdy, well-created and has no sharp edges which makes it a toy that is sure to last while also proving to be very safe.We love the infrared sensor which detects when your kitty is within 5-10 inches and switches the box on, and the built-in rechargeable battery means you’ll never be caught short. While we have a selection of the best cat toys that offer plenty of opportunities for fun, automatic laser cat toys go above and beyond to offer an exciting and unpredictable option for your cat. The Dancing Dot also has two automated modes. The first activates the laser for 15 minutes of play, then shuts off. The second mode activates for 15 minutes of play every two hours (for a maximum of three play sessions over six hours), so your cats can have a couple of sessions while you’re out of the house.

The box features seven holes spread across the top and sides and contains three durable multi-colored feathers that pop out at random, stirring your cat’s hunting instincts and allowing them to pounce and play for up to five minutes at a time.This variety comes in different styles like cubes or towers, but they are grouped together by the fact that they stand on their own and run automatically. Often, the laser moves in a random pattern and you can choose the speed setting. Happily, it's generally as reliable as it is well-designed. Coming with a number of modes, you can turn any part of the room – ceiling, wall, or floor – into a playground, depending on where you have the device positioned. Give a cat a ball and your pet can be entertained for hours. After all, it taps into their instinct to hunt prey. With this interactive ball toy, you can take playtime to another level, plus, it's super convenient - simply charge for one hour using a USB cable and it will provide up to four hours of play. This keychain laser pointer includes both a key ring and a useful clip. It’s also very portable. The Frisco 2-in-1 even includes a separate button which activates an LED light.
