i am not totally well-versed in graphics terminology,but I am sure she created a background of just the bed, walls, mirrorframe and the leg. Then she added the cat and vibrating mirrors as layers with transparent surroundings. Portions of the bed and denim-clad leg were likely left on around the cat to allow more realistic movement of the bedding and surrounding areas. (notice the denim leg crinkle a bit when the cat lands near it)
EDIT: basically, the same thing she said, but worded differently
And WOO!! by the way -- very smooth

Yeah that's the rough garbage matte I feathered it so that it would blend in but there is always going to be some discrepancy between the still frame back plate and the edges of the moving matte especially as the camera seems to have been hand-held. I could have done a more precise rotascope on the cat but as there is a lot of motion blur it really would have been over-egging the pudding.
