# 🐾 Cat vs Dog Classifier - FastAPI + PyTorch

This Space hosts a FastAPI-based image classification API that distinguishes between **cats** and **dogs** using a fine-tuned **ResNet50** model.

## 🚀 How It Works

- Accepts an uploaded image via a POST request.
- Processes the image using `albumentations` and a pre-trained PyTorch model.
- Returns `"cat"` or `"dog"` based on prediction confidence.

## 🧪 Try It Out

You can interact with the `/predict-image` endpoint using tools like:
- `curl`
- Postman
- Any frontend that supports `multipart/form-data` file uploads.

### Example:

```bash
curl -X POST \
  -F "file=@your_image.jpg" \
