Steganography is the practice of concealing a message within another message or another object such as image.
Francis Bacon developed Bacon's cipher as such a technique in 1605. In his biliteral cipher, he allowed the aโs and bโs to designate the different forms of anything that can be divided into two classes, sorts, or types (which Bacon referred to as the a-form and the b-form). The aโs and bโs can be represented by, for example, pluses and minuses, flowers of different kinds or colors, even (literally) apples and orangesโand this, for Bacon, is what gives his biliteral system the greatest power of all.
In my puzzle the A's and B's are represented by short and long lines of the cat's shadow. Which is readed as:
ABBBA AAABA BABAB ABBAA AAAAA
and can be decoded as: pcxna

P.S. The train contains a few Humble Choice leftovers (mostly from February 2022). I've put minor but reasonable restrictions on these giveaways.
