They May Be Caught refers to three different things that can be caught: Colds (5 letters), RAYS (4 letters), and Drifts (6 letters). Colds are contagious illnesses caused by viruses, which can be spread through contact with an infected person or object. RAYS are beams of light, such as those from the sun, which can be blocked by sunglasses or other protective gear. Drifts refer to the movement of snow or other materials, which can be caught in a net or other device.
