Sure, but cats sleep around 35 hours a day.

Fortunately, presence simulation is only needed at dusk/night - when cats have their zoomies.

This would be a dead giveaway that I wasn't home; my cats tend to get the zoomies in the small hours.

I need some of those cat-sensitive motion triggers.

Old school hardware stores have them. They screw in between the lightbulb and the lamp.

My z-wave sensors of various brands tend to recognize my cat. Most of them have a "pet" setting which is supposed to ignore them, but then I would lose my entire security system.
