Well, for Schroedinger's cat, it's hypothesis 1. For quantum systems, hypothesis 2 has some evidence behind it.
But you can't translate the quantum stuff to the cat, because the detector makes a measurement. So because of the detector, the uncertainty is gone, and there's no uncertainty in the state of the radioactive atoms, let alone in the cat.
