| Product name | Lil' Buddies Pet Laser Toy | |
| Description | This recall involves Lil' Buddies Pet Laser Toys, model 24496. The products are white with small blue paw prints on the casing and include three button cell batteries. The model number is printed above the UPC# on the back of the package. | |
| Problem | The recalled pet toys violate the mandatory standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries because the battery compartment is not secure, making the button cell batteries easily accessible to children, posing a deadly ingestion hazard. In addition, the button batteries provided with the pet toys are not in child-resistant packaging, and the packaging does not have the warnings as required by Reese's Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death. | |
