Last week’s puzzle was a little harder than usual, so this time we’ll go with an easier one. How many cats are in this picture?
(Thanks to my friend mindful webworker for the photograph.)

Certainly there are lots of things in life that money won’t buy, but have you ever tried to buy them without money?

Okay. How many do you see?

I see 4, but for sure, but the clump of vegetation toward the lower left seems to have a set of eyes. The tabby in the upper left certainly blends in well.

My favorite kitty is the ghost cat.

Well I reckon 4. Can’t find any more. Isn’t that tabby well camouflaged?

What makes it perplexing is that once you’ve spotted the brown tabby, you immediately start searching the surrounding landscape for more hidden cats. At least I did. 🙂

I think there are five cats – four that can be seen (that one in the upper L corner is suspect); and two of those five (including the cat in the upper L corner) are not corporeal cats, but apparently manifesting themselves (astral projection?) from a warm place beside a fire somewhere. With tuna fish.

Why am I not seeing these additional ghost cats in the corners??

I don’t see the ghost cats either. I guess some readers have better eyes than I have, or better imaginations. I might not have noticed the little brown tabby either if the friend who passed the photograph along had not told me there were four cats in the picture!
