The thing that jumps out for me is the huge pupils. Cats only get that if its low light, they're targeting something, or drugs. If they were targeting something then there is a massive mismatch between their posture and body language and their pupil dilation.
On the other hand, generative AI know that humans find large pupils on animals cute and is more likely to spit out an image of a cat with dilated pupils.
My money is on AI slop ๐
cats just do that sometimes
This is lower light than the op

I have seen my cat have that big of pupils in a similar position while it wasnt dark
Catnip?
No
The cat was focusing on my hand
Cats also get huge pupils if they get excited. Which if you have the right kind of cat it can get excited by a paint chip on the door. Also those cats are in a box, which is just super exciting.
