It depicts a snug Christmas scene from someone's living room, featuring a beautifully illuminated tree next to a cat tower.

This particular puzzle stands out because while two of the cats might be straightforward to locate - unassumingly perched on their cat tree, one just above ground level and the other snugly atop the first - it's the third feline that offers a true challenge.
