Dive into a grid filled with identical black cat silhouettes—your mission is to find the cats missing a leg. It sounds simple, but the layout’s uniformity can trick even the sharpest eyes. Will you catch every subtle difference in each row, or will one three-legged kitty slip past your view? Scroll through carefully, count each leg, and see if you can uncover all three hidden cats. Keep track of your result before you peek at the explanation, and then compare locations to confirm you haven’t missed any. Good luck sharpening those observation skills!
Can You Find Them All?
Take a close look at this grid of black cat silhouettes—some of them are missing one leg. Your challenge: “Can you find them all?” At first glance, you may spot a couple of three-legged cats, but do you recognize all three hiding in plain sight? Pause, study each row carefully, and try to pinpoint every cat with only three legs before scrolling down for the solution.

Common Mistakes
Scanning Only the First Few Rows
Many people skim over the top or middle rows and think they’ve spotted every three-legged cat, only to miss the one hiding further down.
Overlooking Subtle Changes in Position
When a cat’s posture shifts slightly, one leg can blend into its body outline. Focusing on overall shape instead of counting legs can cause you to miss that third kitty.
Getting Dazzled by Uniform Layout
Because the cats are arranged in a perfect grid, it’s easy to assume they’re all identical at first glance. That assumption leads to skipping over the slightly different silhouettes.
Step-by-Step Solution
Note the Grid Dimensions
- There are 7 rows, each containing 8 cats—56 cats in total. Among these, exactly three are missing a leg.
Carefully Inspect Each Row
- Row 2, Cat #5 (from left): Count five cats across the second row, and you’ll see this cat has only three legs—its rear left leg is missing.
- Row 5, Cat #3 (from left): Moving down to the fifth row, the third cat also shows only three legs—its rear right leg is gone.
- Row 7, Cat #6 (last cat): In the seventh (bottom) row, the very last cat is three-legged, missing the front right leg.
Verify Your Findings
In total, there are three three-legged cats:
- Row 2, Cat 5
- Row 5, Cat 3
- Row 7, Cat 6
