A TRICKY optical illusion has been stumping viewers as they try to find the cats hiding in the garden center background in under 20 seconds.
The feline friends, Max and Emma, are sneakily tucked in and around the flower pots in the real-life brain teaser.
Attention quickly fell on the image after it was posted to X, formerly Twitter, by East Bay Hardware.
Some were quick to spot Max and Emma, while it took some extra time for others.
“One was easy and the other wasn’t but should have been. I didn’t look in the right place,” someone noted.
Another wrote: “I only see Emma. I will have to find Max by stopping in person.”
A third person offered a quick hint for viewers looking to take on the challenge of locating the pair.
“Made in the shade” was all they wrote.
Do you think you’re able to spot the cats within 20 seconds?
You might be among the top percentile of viewers if you can.
Create a timer and wait to hit the start button until you’re prepared.
Ready, set, go!
Were you able to find Max and Emma?
If not, don’t beat yourself up — reset the timer and try again, or go without a timer until you locate the lurking kitties.
The cats’ locations are circled at the bottom of the page for anyone looking to throw in the towel.
For those looking for another tricky animal brain teaser, The U.S. Sun has the story on another picture that contains a turtle hidden within the water in the broken portion of a concrete blacktop.
A short clip of the real-life illusion was shared by Caribbean Storytelling Mom (@devonneadanna) in a post to TikTok.
It may not be the typical habitat for the turtle, but it is located within the image.
Finding the small turtle within 10 seconds may mean you have a high IQ and expert reasoning skills.
Set a timer again, and give it a try!
