Mice can fit through tiny holes. An old rule says that if a pencil can get through - a mouse will get through. Some mice even fly. I once had a bat clinging on my good old CAT cable. So even leaving windows open at night might affect bandwidth...
Another classic is the "Frog on Keyboard error". Software developers have to be prepared for everything...

There used to be an option called "Cat guard" built into several historical (BBS ) software. On (and cannot remember the name) one software that did synchronization with other networks (e.g., FIDO, uunet) it was considered a major feature.
Primary purpose was to lock the keyboard so when the cat walked all over it, it would not disconnect.
