####What is this wizardry?

Google offers a computer vision service in the cloud. Uploading an image to that service will return a JSON object of labels for items in the photo, in addition to the model's confidence rating for each label. This NPM module utilizes this service to determine if there is a cat in an uploaded image, or not.
