People share photos of camouflaged cats – can YOU spot them? 

Feline sneaky! Owners share photos of their cleverly camouflaged cats hiding in gardens, restaurants and bedrooms – so, how many can YOU spot?

  • New Twitter account, There is no cat in this image, posts photos of cats hidden in plain sight in everyday photographs of interiors and landscapes
  • Account has already amassed more than 216,000 followers in just six days 
  • Shots include a fair haired feline camouflaged amongst logs in a wood store 
  • Another picture shows a tiny pair of ears present in a cluttered kitchen 


A new Twitter account dedicated entirely to showing cats hiding in plain sight has seen its followers soar in less than a week since it was set up.  

Such is the apparent appetite for spotting covert felines, the Twitter account ‘There is no cat in this image’, which uses the handle @Thereisnocat_, amassed more than 216,000 followers just days after it was set up on December 29.

The account shares photos of cats in everyday settings that are very hard to spot; with a pair of ears, a tail or a cat-shaped mass under a blanket the only indicator that they’re in residence. 

It’s also fair to say, that some cats featured are much better at hiding than others.
