Abstract:

A pet toy that projects a moving light beam in various directions to entertain a pet is provided. The pet toy comprises a hollow housing having an upper opening and a lower opening. A domed cover is pivotally attached to the housing and capable of closing the upper opening. The domed cover has a reflective material on an underside thereof. A light source is operatively received within the housing and capable of producing a beam of light directed upward through the upper opening. An electric motor is operatively received within the housing and capable of moving the light source. A power source is operatively received within the housing for powering the light source and the electric motor. A switch is located on the housing and movable to an on position allowing the power source to power the light source and/or the electric motor and an off position for preventing the power source from powering the light source and/or the electric motor. In a preferred form, the switch is generally biased toward the on position but is forced to and maintained in the off position when the domed cover is closed against the housing.

A pet toy that projects a moving light beam in various directions to entertain a pet is provided. The pet toy includes a housing having an opening. A cover is connected to the housing. The cover is movable between an open position and a closed position wherein the cover substantially closes the opening. A light source is received within the housing and capable of producing a beam of light directed toward the opening. A motor is received within the housing and capable of providing a motion to the light source. A power source is within the housing for powering the light source and the electric motor. A switch is located on one of the cover and the housing. The switch has an on position allowing the power source to power the light source and the motor. The switch has an off position preventing the power source from powering the light source and the motor. The switch is generally biased toward the on position but is maintained in the off position when the cover is in the closed position.
