Hi everyone. I'm completely new here, as I'm usually found on SFF.SE. We were casually joking about Schrödinger's cat and I wondered if it had been explained why the guy chose a cat in the first place. Apparently this question hasn't been asked on the network (see this query). On the Internet in general, I've only found some idle-guessing-looking "pictures-of-cats" website which doesn't seem really trustworthy.
