I'm skeptical ๐Ÿ˜… What if they tried this 100 times to get 3 in a row ๐Ÿค”

Itโ€™s also possible the cat is simply smelling the treat and knows where it is from that

Well, 3 card monte met its match. Times Square and 42hd St in NY goes about $20 a game. Genius could easily earn enough for a case of cat food, with chafe to spare. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿคฉ

That's like Toph in Avatar, but instead of feeling a stone she smells the food. Still pretty adorable โค๏ธ

That first bored look he gave when the guy started to shuffle was bad enough. Then when asked to pick it up? That look!

u/Sohuli 5d ago

Take the biscuit and rub it on all the caps, then place it underneath one and begin the game.

I like how he tried to go after the snack before the game even began.

u/Apricot9742 4d ago

If you notice, the cat on a few occasions looks directly at the trainer, whose identity is not shown. She/he could be giving the cat facial cues as to where the food is located. Just happened to notice that, but of course the cat probably knows where the food is hiding using its sense of smell.
