Only people with supersonic vision can spot adorable animal in brainteaser

Get ready – this tricky (but quite cute) brainteaser might just leave you baffled.

Take a look at the image below, and you’d be forgiven for thinking this was an ever-so-ordinary garden snap. Huge blue flowers and even larger leaves crowd the focus against a backdrop of numerous towering trees.

And while you may have noticed the rather fetching patio chairs, this isn’t what we’re looking for today. In the midst of this very green scene, unveiled on Reddit, is one sneaky cat.

Spotting them however, is no easy task. Perhaps you’ll even need to muster some supersonic vision – but do you think you’re cut out for it?

Although brainteasers are very fun, they’re also great at keeping our minds active. Research, led by the University of Exeter, shows that thrashing away at puzzles like crosswords and sudoku can keep our brains tip-top, with a potential link to keeping dementia at bay.

“We’ve found the more regularly people engage with puzzles such as crosswords and Sudoku, the sharper their performance is across a range of tasks assessing memory, attention and reasoning,” Dr Anne Corbett, of the University of Exeter Medical School, said at the time.

“The improvements are particularly clear in the speed and accuracy of their performance. In some areas the improvement was quite dramatic – on measures of problem-solving, people who regularly do these puzzles performed equivalent to an average of eight years younger compared to those who don’t.”

Struggling to find the crafty animal? It may help to examine the gaps between each leaf in the forefront of this picture.
