If I go to bed and leave the basement light on, it shines in under the door into the living room, forming a perfectly-collimated, one-inch-high plane of light across living room floor. The floor is too oblique to be lit, so it's pitch dark, but anything on the floor has a one-inch-high, impossibly-bright highlight around its base.
So when I get up in the middle of the night to use the loo, I am greeted by dim fuzzy blackness with four glowing bright paws padding around:
And each paw reflects a little pool of light onto the floor around it.
♫ Glow Beans, Glow Beans, Glow Beans, Glow Beans,
Your tiny paws have got me wrapped, my friend. ♫

Managed to get a pic. Came out both worse and better than I expected.
(She sat still long enough that it isn't just a blur, but it looks way better when she's standing on her four paws.)
When you come out of the bedroom without your glasses, and you just see blackness with these four glowing paws, it is quite an effect.

I walked by a store window where I saw this bag, so I took a shot of it:

Real life examples of jokes I've posted before in this thread:
My cat keeping a watch outside the bathroom while I'm in it

Not quite as extreme as the photo above, but here's my cat taking a nap beside/on the keyboard

Explanation: Some cats have a tendency to follow their owners into the bathrooms, or sit outside the bathroom while it is occupied. All of the four cats I've had did this.
