When I lived in surburbia there were street lights and houses were
relatively close together so that their outdoor lights offered
sufficient light indoors at night. Here there are no street lights
and my nearest neighbor is a about 1,000 feet away so his single
outdoor light over his garage door offers zero light to us indoors or
outdoors.

We don't need a nightlight for our bedroom as we sleep with the TV on
all night. However we have a nightlight in each of the two hallways,
one in the main bathroom, and one in the kitchen because the kitchen
acts as a hallway between one side of the house and the other.

With four cats there's no telling where they sleep and their sleeping
spots constantly change. They will sleep in bed but not all night,
they will often sleep sprawled out in hallways, on the bathroom floor,
and Barny prefers sleeping in the main bathroom in the middle of the
floor and being jet black he becomes invisible at night... during the
day he's often asleep in the bathtub. They have various sleeping
spots in the basement too.

It's not much fun walking to the bathroom , kitchen, anywhere at night
and stepping in a wet hairball.
