I found this riddle earlier this week. Apparently, only 1 in 5 get it right on the first try. I think that sounds a bit odd because it wasn’t that hard – but it really makes you think twice.
I guess that’s the way it is with a lot of these riddles and puzzles – either you get it right straight away, or you have to sit and ponder it for a good long while before finding the answer.
In any case, here’s the riddle:
I have a cat that has three kittens, Tip, Top, and Topsy. What is the mother’s name.
Okay, did you figure out the answer?
A
B
C
Here’s the answer!
You can actually solve it by simply reading the question!
If you figured it out already, then congratulations – you’re something of a genius (well, you’re sharper than most at least). You’re one of the 20% who knew the answer to this tricky riddle right away.
If you didn’t manage to solve the riddle, then the answer is below:
“I have a cat that has three kittens, Tip, Top, and Topsy. What is the mother’s name.”
There is no question mark at the end of the “question”, so the answer is What.
