This automatic laser pointer entertains your cat for you

Your cat never gets tired of chasing the laser pointer. But you do, so this is here to help.

A laser pointer is a great way to amuse your cat, as most owners already know. But eventually, we have other things to go do, like work and pay bills. For the lucky scamps that live rent-free in your house and need exercise, this gadget may be just the thing to keep them busy.

Called the Bolt, this toy runs on four AA batteries and will randomly display a red laser for your cats to pursue. It has both an automatic and a manual mode, so you can let the toy do the work or hop in whenever you feel ready.

The Bolt only runs for 15 minutes at a time, so kitty won’t chase it to the point of collapse either (which is good or bad news depending on your point of view). FroliCat, the company behind the Bolt, makes several other cat toys as well, and all of them are highly rated by Amazon users, so you might want to check them out.

Normally $18, you can get the Bolt for just $10.97 right now on Amazon, while supplies last. Buy it now.
