Laser Beam Pet Toys

The Laser Chase Toy Will Keep Your Pets Entertained for a Long Period of Time

— December 18, 2012 — Lifestyle
Keep your furry critters occupied and in shape with the Laser Chase Toy.

The toy is a very simple mechanism, which projects two laser dots that dart back and forth across the floor. The dots move in unpredictable and unexpected patterns so that your pet will keep amused and entertained trying to figure out where it will go next. It has four speeds and can be set to run for 10-20 minutes. For any pet owner, especially those with cats, you know how bananas they will go when they see any fast moving object. It will not only be fun for your furry friend to run back and forth chasing the lasers but it is also a great way to keep them active and in shape.

Not only will you, the pet owner enjoy watching your pet scurry about but your animal will love playing with the Laser Chase Toy and deter them from going for your shoes instead.
Trend Themes
1. Interactive Pet Toys - There is a potential for a disruption in the pet toy industry by bringing out more innovative and interactive toys as people today want their pets to be entertained and kept occupied in their absence while staying healthy.
2. Automated Pet Entertainment - Developing automated pet entertainment provides a solution to keep pets mentally stimulated and physically active, especially for those pet owners who are busy with work or have limited time to play with their pets themselves.
3. Laser Technology for Pet Toys - The use of laser technology can be extended to other pet-related products, such as laser pointers for training purposes or automatic laser toys that can engage the pets in a varying degree of activity levels.
Industry Implications
1. Pet Toys - The pet toy industry can bring more innovative and interactive toys to the market and cater to pet owners' demands by using technology, such as automation and AI, to make toys even more engaging for pets.
2. Pet Care Services - Pet care services can offer new and unique services that concentrate on automated pet entertainment to keep pets mentally stimulated and physically active, which can help with overnight stays for busy pet owners.
3. E-commerce Retail - E-commerce retail companies can build a specialized line of pet products ranging from innovative toys and gadgets to luxury pet products and services using laser technology to provide a unique selling point.
