    1. Example of Trending Twitter Hashtag #CatSquare (Tufts Univer-sity, 2017).G.E. Smith et al.

      I think this image is one of the most important sections for understanding the topic that is being discussed. It may not seem like it but I think it's important because it is able to create a visualization of the title and what the article is discussing. In the image we see that there is a cat, surrounded in a blue tape square box on top of a tapestry with an illusion like pattern. This visualization helps us understand the rest of the text because it created that image in our head. Now when I read the rest of the text, I have an idea of what the researchers are trying to study.

    3. Applied Animal Behaviour Science 240 (2021) 105338Available online 30 April 20210168-1591/© 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.If I fits I sits: A citizen science investigation into illusory contoursusceptibility in domestic cats (Felis silvestris catus)

      At first I didn't understand the title and what it was going to be about, but reading the very top I could understand that this was going to be related to animal behavior. The title implies that cats will be the main focus of the article and their behavior. When breaking down each part of the title, I finally understood that "illusory contour susceptibility" is another way of saying "illusion based outlines in a form of a shape is likely to influence" and domestic cats are the ones that are being influenced.
