      longest laser? No idea. I reckon you could hit Mars with a laser beam.

      Cats are hunters, and will try to catch whatever they can. I don’t think they would be chasing our lasers around for long.

      Our cat tries to catch everything that moves. The laser spot looks like something small and fast that might taste nice, so he has a go at catching it. The look of confusion when he jumps on the spot and feels nothing is priceless every time 😀
