Schrödinger's Cat was a satirical thought experiment. Schödinger thought the existing theories regarding photons or atoms having superpositioning was as silly as a cat being thought of as simultaneously both alive and dead.
The cat is either alive or dead, but not both. Observation doesn't enter into the equation. You can drink from a straw that appears broken through light refraction. Incorrect or incomplete observation doesn't alter reality.
