Adorable Cat Who Likes To Sleep In The Strangest Places Inspired His Owner To Start The "Find The Cat" Game
Norah the cat has a talent for disappearing in plain sight, and her favorite hiding places have turned everyday life at the Hinds house into a running game. What started as one family’s love story with a shelter cat eventually became a viral challenge when Kate Hinds shared a photo and told people to find the cat.
For years, Norah has been curling up in odd corners, behind furniture, and anywhere else she can squeeze herself into. Her owners know most of her usual spots, but she still manages to surprise them, especially when she finds a new place to nap.
Now the internet is trying to keep up with a cat who treats hiding like a full-time hobby. Read on.
The photo baffled thousands of Twitter users checking the scene for the cat. Can you find her?
Norah is a whiz at cramming into tight places where she feels the comfiest. "During the day, she sleeps in whatever spot she's in the groove of," Hinds said. "Lately, it's behind the television, which is one of her favorite summer locations. If we can't find her, we'll say, 'Norah must be in her summer home.'"
That hiding habit is exactly what made her such a hit online.
No luck finding her?
The family shared a series of pictures of the cat's favorite sleeping spots. Even though their apartment is not large, the cat somehow manages to surprise even her owners.
"We know 99 percent of her hiding spaces. Usually, I can find her right away. But sometimes she'll find a new spot," Hinds says. "When my daughter went to college, Norah took to climbing the ladder and sleeping in her bunk bed, that took me a couple of hours to figure out."
It’s a lot like the builder’s sealed-tiles blunder, where a homeowner heard meows behind them.
Can you find Norah?

"She also sometimes sleeps behind my plants, which can be very risky because sometimes she'll knock them over when she jumps off," Hinds says. "And yes, I've arranged my plants so that the poisonous ones are out of her reach."
Even her favorite hiding spots come with a little chaos.
Norah has a talent for hiding, but her greatest talent is making her family happy. "She'll sit with us at the dinner table," Hinds says. "Then she'll settle in the living room and sit on my lap while I read or watch TV. She purrs like the engine of an old VW Beetle. It's the best."
Some cats just know how to run the house.
