Schrödinger cat states, as typical nonclassical states, are very sensitive to the decoherence effects so that swapping these states is a challenge. Here, we propose a reliable scheme to realize the swapping of macroscopic Schrödinger cat state and suppress the decoherence effect in a feedback-controlled optomechanical system that consists of a optical cavity and two mechanical oscillators. Our protocol is composed of three steps. First, we squeeze a mechanical Schrödinger cat state before the state swapping. Then, we complete the state swapping between the two mechanical modes via indirect interaction. Finally, the target mechanical oscillator obtains the Schrödinger cat state by an antisqueezing process. To confirm the superior performance of the protocol, we simulate the whole dynamics of the state transfer and analyze the influence of the squeezed parameters. The corresponding numerical and analytical results show that this approach can be used to reduce the effects of decoherence, which suggests that our state swapping proposal is effective and feasible.
