There are two boxes that are nonempty. A sleeping cat is in one box. What is in the other?

This is, you know, a very serious riddle. It is out of this world, let me tell you. And since you are serious uber/puzzlers: how come you didn't solve it already?! Are you pulling my leg? Who told you that aliens have legs!? And how many? And are you telepaths? Ah, I see. You need a bit more time. Tempus fugit, friends. Get on it. Resurrect Albert Einstein if you have too; anything to . . . solve the riddle.

That would occur to you. So you see, in your case, it was a matter of time, talking about lateral thinking riddles.
