Do Cats Like Kisses?
Some cats do seem to like or at least tolerate human kisses. If your
cat leans in, purrs, and rubs his head on you when you kiss him, he
probably understands that you're trying to show him affection.
However, if your cat's ears go back, he begins to whip his tail back
and forth, moves away from you, hisses, or swats at you, he doesn't want
to be kissed. [It's a good idea to respect that!]

Cats have predatory instincts and always missing their prey could eventually lead to loss of interest in the activity. My suggestion is to land the dot on a toy they can pounce on, satisfying their prey drive with a "capture."
Another risk is accidental visual exposure to the laser light causing permanent eye damage.
