Non-Gaussian states, and specifically the paradigmatic Schr\"odinger cat state, are well-known to be very sensitive to losses. When propagating through damping channels, these states quickly loose their non-classical features and the…

The cat state is shown to `store' a single photon through the superposition of its orthogonal counterpart with itself, and an excited oscillator state. Photon addition leads to a $\pi $ phase shift at origin in the observed phase space…
