Sometimes, at night, since my vision was fuzzy from the dark, it would make all the cat pictures on my wall look like they were moving. This lead me to believe that once I fell asleep, they would jump out of the pictures and prowl my room until morning, when they'd go back to a lifeless existance in the square, framed "holes" in my wall. In fact, they still look like they move, but I know it's just an optical illusion from the lack of light.
