How to Solve Meowdoku Level 187

Stuck on Meowdoku Level 187? This puzzle can be tricky, but a few key deductions make it fall into place. Here’s a step-by-step guide to solving it.

A great starting point is Row 9. Most of this row is occupied by the large purple region (columns 1-7) and the yellow region (column 9). Since these regions must contain their own cats, the cat for Row 9 has only one possible home. Place the cat in row 9, column 8.

Now that we have a cat in column 8, let's look at the top of the board. The small gold-colored region only has two cells: (1,8) and (1,9). The cat we just placed at (9,8) makes row 1, column 8 an illegal move. This forces the placement for the gold region. Place the cat in row 1, column 9.

With two cats placed, we can solve the yellow region next. This region covers several cells in the bottom right. The cat at (9,8) blocks columns 8, and the cat at (1,9) blocks column 9. Checking the yellow region, every cell except one is blocked by row, column, or diagonal rules from our first two cats. The only safe spot left is (7,7). Place the cat in row 7, column 7.

From here, the rest of the puzzle unravels. The placement at (7,7) creates new constraints. Looking at the light blue region, and considering the occupied rows and columns, the only logical spot for its cat becomes clear. Place the cat in row 3, column 4.

Following that logic, continue placing cats by identifying the most constrained rows, columns, and regions until all nine are happily settled. The final placements will be in row 2, column 1; row 4, column 6; row 5, column 3; row 6, column 5; and row 8, column 2.
