mental_floss Blog - CAPTCHA Variants: KittenAuth

Developed by programmer Oli Warner, the KittenAuth system presents a series of pictures of cute animals, and asks the user to click on all the kittens. Well, that’s the simplest form — the current version may ask you to pick out a different animal, so you may have to click on all the pandas or lambs — this adds some fun to the game, and presumably prevents spammers from investing all their effort on kitten-detection software.
