there is one cat breed that is known for the habit of flicking lights on and onf.
Mine recently started tapping the dvd player trying to figure out where the tray went. I distracted her right away before she knocked it to the floor.
She learned that she could turn off my phone alarm by hitting the phon until accidentally hitting the right spot it went silent. I was still working then and woke up late for work. Couldn't call in because I couldn't find the phone. When I told the boss that I suspected the cat stole the phone after turning it off, she cracked up laughing.
Found the phone when I got home -- under the couch. To prove my hunch I set the phone for 2 minutes and waited. Soon as the alarm went off she started batting it until it stopped. Then she picked it up and started walking away with it.
Next day I closed the phone inside the cat carrier for safety after setting the alarm. Woke up to a crash. Kitty got mad when she couldn't reach the phone so she knocked the whole carrier to the floor.
This cat is the most challenging one I have ever had.
