Only those with eagle-eyed vision can spot cat in image of woman sweeping
Some have been locked in for minutes or even hours trying to find this hidden animal - and you wouldn't believe how hard it actually is, reports The Mirror.
The picture, shared on the Reddit thread r/opticalillusions, appears to show a red-haired woman standing in the centre, holding a brush, with a colourful curtain, door, and bucket in the background. However, a sneaky feline is lurking somewhere in the image - but can you spot it?
The post asks: "Can you spot the cat in this optical illusion?". After staring at the image for a while, some users threw in the towel, admitting they couldn't find the cat anywhere. But others came to the rescue, revealing that the solution lies in rotating your screen.
If you're yet to find the cat, and don't want a clue, do not scroll on below.
One user said: "Hint: turn your screen clockwise 90 degrees." Another user added: "Tilt your phone to the right, the cat is a silhouette on the wall, formed by the lady's arms and the tapestry."
A third user suggested: "Looking at the photo, next to the lady's ear on the right-hand side and tilt your phone 90 degrees to the right."
Once the cat's location was revealed, users couldn't help but see it. One user commented: "Once you see it, you can't not see it." Another user noted: "It's in the negative space between the arm and the curtain."
According to Mindvalley, this type of problem-solving requires lateral thinking, a creative approach that involves thinking outside the box. As they explain: "The brain is neuroplastic, meaning it has the ability to shift and change over time. Many people believe our brains age as we do, growing less powerful, less capable, and less competent over time."
It continues: "What most don't realise, however, is that you have the ability to manipulate your brain the way a sculptor moulds clay. Hint: turn your screen clockwise 90 degrees.
"The brain is susceptible to all we expose it to – people, music, work – even the physical environments we traverse on a day-to-day basis. Everything we partake in has the potential to subtly shift the wiring of our brain."

Oasis Croke Park: Liam Gallagher's Fontaines DC feud & rumoured R.E.M. tensions
While there isn't a specific, sustained "feud" between Oasis and other Irish rockstars, there has been recent tension between Liam Gallagher and Fontaines D.C.. In 2024, Oasis rocker Liam hit out at the Irish band after two band members admitted they weren't fussed about the hugely-hyped Oasis reunion tour. Speaking to Studio Brussel after the Oasis tour was announced, guitarist Carlos O'Connell and bassist Conor Deegan III were asked how they were feeling about the news. 'I couldn't really give a s***, to be honest,' O'Connell responded. 'I'm not excited about it either, to be honest,' Deegan agreed. 'Because I just feel like we kind of get caught, in the last year, 2010s, into such a nostalgic thing, that we're forgetting to make new things and I've felt like, what we wanted to do with this record anyway, where we wanted to make our minds look into the future and making new things. 'So for Oasis to reform at this moment, for us, is really annoying.' Liam responded to a fan account who shared an article covering the band's comments, writing: 'F*** them little spunkbubbles I've seen better dressed ROADIES.' Additionally, Oasis had a reported falling out with R.E.M. after a show at Slane Castle in Ireland. In 1995, Oasis played a support slot at Slane Castle for the indie rock superstars and their performance was so well-received that it overshadowed the headliners. The strong reaction from the crowd, combined with some public comments, led to a perception of a feud or rivalry between the two bands.

He added a red-heart shaped emoji for his sweet tribute. Geri looked fabulous in the snap as she posed aboard a boat with an idyllic ocean scenery behind her. The couple share their seven-year-old son Monty together with Christian also step-father to Geri's daughter, Bluebell Madonna. Geri's birthday comes just weeks after she failed to attend bandmate Mel B's wedding to Rory McPhee. The duo are known to have had differences in their friendship over the years. Only Emma Bunton attended the nuptials with Victoria Beckham instead sharing a public tribute to the singer after being forced to miss the big day due to prior commitments. Geri also recently remained silent when it was revealed Mel and Rory had held a second wedding in Morocco. It comes after it was reported that Geri's book company was facing debts. The Mirror claims new accounts for her business, Falcon Queen Productions, had sunk a further £750,000 in the year ending August 2024, compared to a £276,000 deficit the previous year. This Morning fans baffled as Geri Halliwell uses THREE different accents in 'cringe' interview Geri set up the firm in 2021 and launched her debut novel, Rosie Frost and the Falcon Queen two years later. In April this year she released a second title, Rose Frost: Ice On Fire. There are no such concerns with her main company, Won-derful Productions, which earned £2.16m in 12 months. Geri also has a jaw-dropping £440million net worth between her and Christian.

Top BBC presenter accused of showing 'penis picture' to junior staff member
The BBC has reportedly been hit with another scandal, after a top female presenter is alleged to have shown a 'penis picture' to a junior member of staff - leaving them in tears. The star is alleged to have revealed an image of a man's penis on her phone during a casual conversation where she asked the producer if she "liked d*** pics". Insiders claim the star, who is listed among the BBC's 50 highest-paid employees, asked the young staff member an inappropriate question before showing her the picture, reports The Mirror. The young producer was said to have been "horrified and in tears" over the encounter. It is unknown whose private parts were in the picture. Bosses were alerted about the encounter, and the presenter was brought into a private meeting where she was told to apologise for her actions. The crisis has been described as a "ticking time bomb" by staff at the BBC, fearing there could be a widespread fallout if the presenter's identity became public. A source claimed to The Sun: "This incident goes beyond ordinary workplace banter. The staff member felt intimidated and upset, believing the act was meant to shock under the guise of a joke. "There's a sense that if this had involved a male presenter, the repercussions would have been immediate and severe. The fact that it's a woman at the centre of this makes the situation even more striking." The insider claimed the conversation was meant 'to be jokey, locker-room type banter' but it resulted in the young producer crying about it. A BBC spokesperson said: "While we do not comment on individual cases, we take all complaints about conduct at work extremely seriously." The BBC has been hit with a number of scandals in the last year, with the axing of a number of Strictly Come Dancing stars over their behaviour, as well as Gregg Wallace and John Torode being fired from MasterChef in recent weeks. The BBC also came under fire for its coverage of the Glastonbury Festival. This year, Welsh presenter Wynne Evans was axed from his radio job at the BBC over allegations about his conduct. The One Show host Jermaine Jenas was also sacked by the corporation for sending inappropriate messages to two female colleagues. Meanwhile, Huw Edwards pleaded guilty to having indecent images of children and was spared jail when he admitted three charges of 'making' indecent photographs after he was sent 41 illegal images by a convicted paedophile over WhatsApp. The former BBC presenter was handed a six-month prison sentence, suspended for 24 months. He was also placed on the sex offenders register for seven years. The Mirror have reached out to the BBC for comment.
