The Mystery of the Hallway Light

Early this morning I woke up to find my hallway light shining brightly into my bedroom. Now, I know it wasn't on when I went to bed as I would never have been able to go to sleep like that. I've developed the following theories as to how this light came on overnight.

  1. For some reason in my sleep, I got up, turned the light on and went back to bed without waking up.
  2. Someone broke into my house and just turned on that single light.
  3. I have a ghost.
  4. One of my cats did it.
Yeah, it had to be a cat. Now, this light has two light switches. One at the top of the stairs and one at the bottom. The one at the top is a little out of reach for the cats, but the one of the bottom has a table underneath it. So a cat could very easily stretch up and turn the switch. Both of my cats enjoy stretching up against walls, so I could see either of them possibly doing this. However, only Cady enjoys waking me up at 5:30 a.m., so I'm quite sure if I dusted for pawprints, hers would be the ones all over that light switch. Of course, it IS possible that Paris wanted to do a little light reading and she flipped the switch, but I'm fairly certain the troublemaker did it.
