Schrodinger's Cat is what you may call a theory that is unprovable by science, in fact it serves to represent the limits of science and what we can understand using the scientific method of understanding....using observable physical evidence as the basis of that understanding.
Since the "paradox" only exists as long as the box is not open...we do not know whether the cat is alive or dead, and some theories in quantum physics even assume that both possibility exist at the same time until one is observed. Therefore what we observe when we open the box, a live cat or a dead cat, either is already what it is before we observe it...or both until we observe it, and the fact that we are relying on observation limits the ability to prove or disprove either option, that is the actual paradox...the rules of science and it's limits in understanding something that is either imagined and made up..or reality, Kinda like God, either he is real or made up in our minds....science is limited in it's ability to learn everything.
