This charming puzzle is new to me. Although it appears on quite a few websites, I only stumbled on it a couple of days back.
Cats like boxes, as we know. In the puzzle a rather naughty cat is hiding in one of five boxes, arranged in a row.
The cat challenges you to find it! The rules are:
So from box 1 the cat must go right; from box 5 left; and from other boxes it can go right or left.
The question is: can you catch this mischevious cat, however hard it tries to elude you? If so: how?
I don't know who first thought of this puzzle but there are lots of references in this article.
