In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment that illustrates a paradox of quantum superposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical cat may be considered simultaneously both alive and dead as a result of its fate being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur.
Here is a cat which appears to be emulating such simultaneous alive-and-dead behaviour. The cat belongs to prominent Canadian artist Véronique Sunatori, MFA, BFA, with professional architect Kevin in the background.
