Ha, I like your thinking. I'll send the cat in first to make it more plausible!
Subterfuge has its place but you might want to consider using powerline network adapters in place of ethernet cables, at least in areas more difficult to wire up. I used them for years to run several ethernet network segments to NAS, printers, and compute server in two areas of the townhouse where WiFi was sketchy. The products on offer have gotten progressively better over the years.
The ISP-provided router/access point in our new digs provides great 2-band WiFi coverage to most of it but I still use a pair of powerline adapters to bridge to one area.
Just my 2-cents worth.

PS - our cat is completely immune to thoughts of doing anything useful.
