How do you know it's not?

Since we can’t know if the cat is constipated or not without an autopsy, the cat is both constipated and not constipated. Since the state of constipation cannot be verified then we should not use the term when describing the cat, whether it be constipated or not constipated.

This is certainly an interesting take on Schrödinger's cat.
