What can I say, caught in the act. Your cat is Thermolian

Maybe it's an image of mary and people are going to start coming to your cat for healings now.

Ooh, that is really nifty.

Probably shadows of stuff in the bright sun. Do you happen to have a tree outside your window?
Or just some miscellaneous items on that table near the window?

PS: I see you've got everything on your desktop sorted into "SEIV" and "Crap". Hehehe

I ought to be possible to grab the cat's eye, filter out the specific colors of the eye itself, de-warp the image as a reflection projected onto a round surface (assuming a sphere should be safe enough). Then reverse the colors for greater contrast and we may have a better view of the issue.

Not that I'm the guy to do these things, but I know we have some photo-manipulators here...

You could do that Loser, but you would lose any sort of image in the process. Assuming it's not Atrocities playing a joke on us, then it is just an optical illusion and not a real reflection. Doing all that manipulation to the image will eliminate the random bits and color variances that our minds are connecting together to make a recognizable pattern. Like when the "Mars Face" viewed from another angle becomes just another mountain.

That's a "Rorschach’s inkblot" as far as I can tell; it has whatever meaning you put in it. As you can see in the right eye (left in this image) you are taking a photograph of a cat looking at a window. That eye reflects what seems to be a pattern of shadows in or just outside your room. That same pattern continues across both eyes, which is why you see the inkblot in the darker left eye. Probably a tree, they tend to produce those kinds of shadows.

However, can you see the raw demonic world-destroying god-slaying power in my avatar photo?
[edit:] Ooops, no avatar photo here yet.
