CPSC recall 25-421, announced August 7, 2025, covers Pet Zone Laser Pointer & LED Ball Pet Toys (about 15,400 units). The recalled pet toys violate the mandatory standard for consumer products containing button cell or coin batteries as required by Reese's Law because the LED-illuminated plastic sphere can break upon impact, making the button cell batteries easily accessible to children, posing an ingestion hazard. The notice reports no incidents. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled pet toys and contact Petmate for a full refund. Recall contact: call 888-847-8716, or go to recallrtr.com/pettoys.
