The beak-filled picture has been testing others on Twitter though, as some are struggling to lock eyes on the mysterious moggy at all.
However, a handful of sharp gamers on social media are spotting the cat in around three to five seconds, with one person even claiming they solved it in less than two!
One jammy player wrote: "Yeah spotted and did it in 5 seconds, easy!
"Lol easy… they say the average time to find the cat amongst the pigeons is 18 seconds. Took me about 5 seconds," said another quick-sharp gamer.
While a third added: "Took me less than a second…"
The tricky teaser was originally released by the Norfolk-based brand to celebrate National Cat Day – an annual campaign to raise awareness and funds for cats without a home.
Natures Menu provides pets with raw and natural foods that help aid digestion and improve animal nutrition, according to its website.
Managing director of the family-fun company, Craig Taylor, said: "What better way to celebrate National Cat Day than by challenging your family and friends to finding the missing kitty amongst the pigeons in our fantastic brainteaser?"
