An optical illusion is a fascinating visual trick that plays with the way our brain and eyes work together. Sometimes, what we “see” isn't really what's “there,” and that's what makes optical illusions so fun and mind-bending. They can make objects appear larger, smaller, moving, or even completely different from reality. These illusions work by confusing the brain’s normal interpretation of light, colour, patterns, and depth. Often used in art, puzzles, or brain teasers, they’re not just entertaining—they also teach us how our perception can be influenced by context. Whether it's a hidden image, a shifting shape, or a colour trick, optical illusions challenge our senses and remind us that our brain doesn’t always get it right the first time.

In today's challenging puzzles, there is a fun visual image in which an old lady is sitting in a room where the old lady is knitting a sweater from wool. But around this old lady, many cats were also there in this room. So if you think you possess a 140%+ IQ level, then try to find the number of cats around the old lady in 11 seconds.
