Put your eyesight to the test: can you spot the cat hidden in this optical illusion?

  1. Visually divide the image  : scan it by areas, from left to right, from top to bottom.
  2. Look for the anomaly  : texture, shadow, shape or a different look often betrays the intruder.
  3. Trust your instincts  : sometimes, a visual intuition is better than a rational analysis.

The solution

Still haven't found it? The cat is hiding in the top right corner, between two owls very close together. Its softer muzzle and feline eyes break the perfect symmetry of the rest of the drawing. Once you spot it, you can't miss it!

The little “brain-healthy” bonus

According to several neuroscience researchers, these optical illusions stimulate concentration and short-term memory. They also offer an effective mental break for those who spend long hours in front of a screen.

So, did you find the cat without cheating? Well done if so! And if not, share this challenge: your friends might have just as much trouble spotting this discreet feline among its feathered neighbors.

Because ultimately, it's all a matter of perspective: what we seek most is sometimes  right under our noses .
