1. A pet toy comprising:
- a housing;
at least one wheel;
an electric motor coupled to said at least one wheel;
a power source electrically coupled to said electric motor;
said at least one wheel, electric motor and power source driving said pet toy in a forward direction of travel; and
a light source electrically coupled to said power source and coupled to said housing, said light source being positioned to direct a beam of light in a rearward direction generally opposite to the forward direction of travel.

Abstract
A toy a pet laser toy 100 includes a housing 101 having a front end 104 and a rear end 105 relative to the forward direction of travel. The toy has a right wheel 107 coupled to a right motor 110 and a left wheel 108 coupled to a left motor 111. The motors are independently controlled through a microprocessor 118. The toy 100 also includes a light source 126 mounted to the housing 101 at a downward angle with respect to the horizontal plane underlying the toy. With the angular mounting of the light source 126, the light produced by the light source 126 is projected upon the underlying support surface a short distance behind the rear end 105 of the toy 100.
