Feline photo leaves people scratching their heads - how many cats can you find in 30 seconds?
Reddit user RastroBoy, shared a picture on the site's Find the Sniper Thread encouraging commenters to count the number of kitties that were hidden in plain sight.
The photo showed the poster lounging on a porch surrounded by a lot of feline friends.
Cats of all shapes, sizes, and colors relaxed on steps, handrails, shelves, window sills, and even on picnic tables.
At first finding the entire herd may seem simple.
But commenters quickly realized that the poster's furry companions blended in with their surroundings and even each other, allowing them to hide in plain sight.
Now it's your turn to see if the clever cats stump you too.
How many can you find in just 30 seconds?
Commenters found the majority of the cats in the photo with ease. But due to subtle tricks of the eyes, hardly anyone was able to find every single one.
The most common answers for Reddit users was between 19 and 20 cats, leaving them just shy of the grand total.
How many did you see?
According to the poster and subject of the photo the grand total was 22.
He even chimed in in the comment section to give struggling searchers a couple of hints.
He wrote: '22 is the answer! The toughest ones are located:
'There are not just one but 2 on the handrail, a black and a brown. There's a calico one on the porch in the corner behind the 2 b/w cats. There's a black one upon a table in the front window which looks black too.'
A handful of guessers were successful, finding the right total on their very first try.
But a few people saw cats that weren't even there. Their counts came out to 24, 23, and even 30.
Although RastroBoy rated the puzzle on an 'easy' level, it did seem to stump quite a few wannabe detectives.
One or two even gave up mid-count and commented: 'A lot! That's a lot of cats.'
Another said: 'A bunch.'
A third countered: 'Not enough.'

Bride is 'livid' over 'ugly' detail in her $400 wedding cake: 'The baker did you dirty'
A bride has told of how she was so 'livid' at her wedding after the $400 cake she ordered looked nothing like she had imagined. The woman had paid a professional baker to create her 'dream' three-tier cake in a muted, soft shade of dusty blue. She asked for a faux wedding cake made of Styrofoam that was covered in real fondant, with a real single serve of sponge - ready for the bride and groom to cut into for photographs. But on their wedding day, the couple realised the baker had made the 'wrong colour' cake - despite giving the professional two 'inspo pics' of what they wanted. Adding to the shock, the baker forgot to mark where to cut into the towering tiered cake, and instead gave the bride and groom the only instructions, 'Poke it with a fork to find it'. 'My sister thought she found it because it was softer in one area, but during our cake cutting, we cut into Styrofoam. It was so awkward,' she said. 'We eventually found (the real cake) and it was only the top half of the bottom tier.' The cake not only looked 'ugly', but the bride said it was 'sticking out like a sore thumb' and 'clashed horribly' with her lighter-toned décor at the reception. 'I'm livid,' the bride said in a Reddit thread. The bride said her sister 'tried to salvage' what she could from the original cake by using the flower 'scraps' from around the reception. 'The colour was so off... It's so ugly I had my sister save the cake last minute... My sister was trying to see how much cake she could cover up since we didn't have that much white icing,' she explained. 'We added the flowers that were leftover décor from my venue. 'She did an amazing job.' While she admitted the updated cake was giving 'grandma' vibes, she said it 'at least matched' the colours of her wedding reception. Hours before her sister came to the rescue, the bride asked the baker to fix the cake. 'The baker refused to change anything since they didn't have a designer that day to fix it... My wedding was in five hours and I didn't have time to find another cake,' she said. To make matters worse, the bakery is now refusing to give her a full refund. 'The lady on the phone was so rude and condescending,' the bride said. 'She told us to take pictures of the cake next to our wedding décor so she could make sure "it actually didn't match". 'We added the flowers from my flower arch later to help prove it didn't match my décor.' Styrofoam cakes are popular at weddings for many reasons, including providing the tiered look of a traditional wedding cake without the expense. Guests are usually served sheet cakes, which are sliced discreetly in the kitchen and brought out as soon as the couple has made their first cut into the dummy version. The bride's post has been met with more than 2,000 comments, with many shocked over the cake she received on her wedding day. 'Your sister did a phenomenal job lightening up the cake. Sorry the bakery is being so awful,' one said. 'Omg! I would burn them on socials so hard. That is horrendous! Your sister did save the day, but still looks nothing like your inspo photos. Wow,' another shared. 'The biggest problem with the job her sister did is that the blue isn't dark enough. She did a great job in recreating the spirit of the inspo pics. The bakery did a horrible job. It looks like some kind of LSD aquarium infused nightmare,' one suggested. 'Bakery did you dirty, no doubt about it. Glad you are happy with your sister's cake rescue,' another added.

Expat lists the 'red flags' her Aussie partner insists are 'normal' Down Under - before thousands warn her to 'get out NOW'
An expat who moved to Australia to be with her partner shared a confronting glimpse into their relationship - and hundreds have branded him emotionally abusive. Posting anonymously to Reddit, the woman explained she left her home country and quit her stable IT job in November to start a new life Down Under. She met her partner while he was living in her country, and the couple had a long-distance relationship for a while. She chose to relocate because she didn't want to break up. But since moving, she's been questioning whether the way he speaks to her is 'normal' in Aussie relationships. 'When we argue or he's upset, he's said things like "shut the f*** up b***h", "you don't have a f***ing job", and "you can't even f***ing cook",' she wrote. The man also frequently tells her to 'f**k off' if she ever says something in her own language out of frustration when they're arguing. She also said he once told her, 'I'm a visual person' and 'our sex life is dead' when discussing their relationship - something that left her feeling insecure about her appearance. 'I've never said anything similar about him,' she said. 'I'm not sure if this is healthy or normal.' The woman, whose first language isn't English, admitted she sometimes freezes during arguments when she doesn't fully understand what's being said. She had been led to believe that swearing was just part of Australian culture. Her boyfriend allegedly told her that 'Aussies swear a lot' and 'aren't romantic'. But commenters were quick to reassure her that this behaviour wasn't cultural - it was abusive. 'Nothing about this is normal,' one top comment read. 'Australians can be forthright, but this is abusive language,' another wrote. 'Please be careful and make sure you have the means to safely leave if you need to.' She met her partner while he was living in her country, and the couple had a long-distance relationship, but she chose to relocate Down Under because she didn't want to break up An Australian man summed up how most were feeling. 'There's nothing unique about how respect is shown here. Your instincts are correct. I'm sorry to say this is not okay,' he wrote. The woman also said she felt isolated because all of her partner's family and friends live nearby, and she hasn't found a job yet. 'This is my first time living overseas, and honestly, I feel like a little kid who always needs help,' she said. Though she initially asked if his behaviour was simply a reflection of 'how Aussies argue', she concluded by thanking people for their honest feedback. 'I get it now. This is not normal at all.'

I decorated my garden with flowers – then my nosy neighbour asked if I had died, it was mortifying when he said why
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A HOMEOWNER was left shocked by the text she received from her neighbour after doing up her garden. After practicing her green fingers, one woman was left baffled by the reaction of those who live around her. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 A Reddit user shared the surprising reaction her neighbours had to her garden (stock image) Credit: Getty She took to Reddit to share the confusing interaction she had with one of her neighbours. The poster explained the extensive work she carried out in beautifying her front garden, focusing on wild flowers. "I've been trying to make a native yard. I have several sage and monkey flowers, yarrow, coyote bush, etc. I also spread baby blue eyes and clarkia seeds," she wrote. While the woman admitted she had been battling numerous weeds, she was proud with the transformation.

While her progress had been interrupted due to various life circumstances, she said: "I've been learning as I go and my neighbours have seen me trying." From digging up turf to laying mulch, planting shrubs, and watering, the Reddit user carried out the entire project by herself. "I watched some die, I replanted at a better time of year, I spread seeds", she continued. "Many neighbors are encouraging to my face when they see me out there." However, she received word from one of her neightbours that people in the area were concerned about the appearance of her garden. 'I was quoted £10,000 for a garden renovation but did it MYSELF for £1,000 using ChatGPT to show my kids what single mums can do' In fact, some residents had even reached out to him to ask about the Reddit user's well-being. "One neighbour who is kind of like the 'neighbourhood watchdog' just told me that people text him all the time asking if I have died or if I'm a renter and letting weeds take over," she said. She explained that she didn't know why this assumption bothered her so much. "I live in an old neighborhood and the crowd is of an older generation that prefers lawns, but like all this effort and people assume [I'm] a renter trashing the place or that I've died... really?" she said. The Reddit user concluded that the lack of appreciation for her flourishing garden "just hurts". "You're doing a very cool thing - don't let haters give you doubt," one Reddit user wrote. "Put a sign in the front yard - 'pardon the weeds - native garden in progress!' It's worked for my son and DIL," suggested another person. "No matter what you do... Someone won't like it," pointed out a third commenter. More on gardening One homeowner turned their garden into a Bridgerton paradise with a charity shop find.
