This optical illusion challenge will reveal your visual sharpness. If you possess eyes as sharp as Sherlock Holmes, then find the mouse hidden among these cats!

Remember, hidden objects or animals in an optical illusion image are often tucked away or camouflaged in corners, or near the bottom edge, or blended in with background elements.

You will have to bring your focus and attention completely to the image. Remove all distractions and set a timer for 22 seconds.

Start scanning the image systematically in a grid-like pattern. Focus on the smaller contrasting details rather than the overall image.

Do not glance around. Do not dart your eyes randomly. Start from top to bottom and side to side to ensure no area of the image is left unchecked.

The mouse could be too tiny or same size as the cats, it could also be any colour. You need to work beyond your everyday assumptions.

Keep looking. Do you notice anything that is breaking the pattern of the black cats? 

If the mouse is not apparently visible, try zooming in on the image.
