Middle Of the night noise

My cat has a habit of jumping off of our steps in the middle of the
night scaring you to the point that you think someone is breaking into
the house.

On the one occasion that my parents' house was burgled, we saw evidence
that the burglar had made a hasty, panicky exit (he dropped several pieces
of loot in the back yard). Their cat liked to sleep on top of a pile of
boxes in the attic, and would make a loud thump when she jumped down, so
she probably was responsible for scaring the burglar away.

I posted about this on another site but it was spooky. We have cornfields
by my house and they picked it the other day. Dueing the night I heard a
noise like a big rat scratching to get in. I turned on the light before I
got out of bed. Went to the livingroom ecorted by three cats. Looked in
the kitchen and bathroom. Finally figured the noise was comming from the
"tidy cat" container where I keep the cats food. The lid was loose and,
like an idiot, I lifted it up. Something streaked out and I yelled. I
realized in a split second it was Willow. The food was too deep for her to
get a foothold in order to jump out. Had to give her a bath at three in the
morning she smelled so from the food.
