You don't usualy point the laser into their face when you're playing with 
them.  The only way that a laser can cause eye damage is either through 
direct or mirrored exposure to the eye (as in the beam is bounced off a 
mirror and then goes direcly into the eye)  Laser light that bounces off any 
other surface diffuses enough not to cause damage.  I don't know about a 
laser mouse toy, but I play with my and my roommate's cats quite often with 
my laser pointer.  They love it, and then I don't have to run around 
everywhere. :)
Seriouly though.  You just have to make sure you don't play with it around 
mirrors (glass can have the same effect, but to a lesser extent) and that you 
don't point it right in their eyes.
