Questionably designed experiment I'm running: will our cats sit in a taped rectangle (we feel bad ♻️ boxes, egg cartons, etc)? Ans: maybe. There was at least one confounding factor!

I can help with 1. We're still learning how cats perceive 2D shapes. Thanks to @Explanimals @sebyosiere, you can read about cat response to illusory squares here smithsonianmag.com/smart-new… & manuscript here sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #cats #citsci #MyScienceMay #ififitsisits #catsquare

La Trobe research investigating cats’ susceptibility to illusory contours shows they perceive space in much the same ways as humans (all we had to was tempt them with illusory boxes!) 🔲 now.latrobe/3EMy9vG | #CitizenScience #CatBehaviour #CatSquare

Remember #CatSquare? Turns out the #cat brain utilises shortcuts to fill in the missing information of an incomplete shape using previous experiences and knowledge — 'and these shortcuts lead to similar perceptual illusions as humans.'
Good kitty. now.latrobe/3lKfdoJ

Cats love squares. Any cat lover can verify the feline phenomenon of sitting in square things, whether they’re boxes (thank you, Schrödinger), suitcases, or even square shapes made of tape. Why do they do this?
