Matthew sent a photo taken by his daughter. It shows several cats, including Matthew’s three (Ollie, Pepper, and Harry). But can you spot them all? Matthew says “There are at least 5 cats.”
Click on the photo to enlarge it.
The reveal will be at 11 a.m. Chicago time.
Four of them are easy. But there’s so much *stuff* there that I can’t tell if I’m looking at some pottery, a narrow pail, or a cat.
I think I see 8 cats.
I count four. But why is the esteemed Professor Cobb climbing onto the roofs of his neighbours’ houses to take photographs of his cats?
His daughter took the photo, and I believe it was from an upstairs window.
That makes more sense. The style of architecture is typical of Victorian-era workers’ housing in many English industrial cities, with long, parallel terraces of houses backing onto a shared alleyway. That being the case, the folks across the way will have an identical view (minus the cats), and I’m guessing that the photograph was taken from a dormer window in the roof of the house.
I got 4 or so.
I got four for sure plus a possible sitting inside one of the windows.
My guess
1. on the brown trash bin
2 and 3. near the baby blue bag near the centre
4. inside the 2nd from right window
5. on the shed between the two rightmost window
I spotted 4 cats, and a section of roof that needs shingles. 😉
An unmistakably English urban landscape: Victorian terraces, UPVC windows, felt-roofed sheds, and cats. Oh, and wheelie bins; another staple of the Great British garden.
