Nah, I figured it out. It's simple. If it takes three minutes for THREE cats to kill THREE mice, then it takes three minutes for the cats to kill the equal amount of mice as there are cats. The specific quantity of cats and mice has nothing to do with solving the riddle. It's all about noticing the amount of cats and mice is equal.
three minutes lolz, it's really easy to figure out
but that's all if they were all robot cats, normal cats would each take an indefinite amount of time to catch their rats, the fact that those cats coincidentally caught them at the same time means nothing! :D
