How to solve Meowdoku Level 20
Here is the full 8×8 solution to Level 20, solved region by region. Start where the board is tightest — the emerald region (row 3, column 3) — and the eliminations chain through to the violet region, one cat per row, column, and color region with no two ever touching. Pure logic, no luck. (Your own Level 20 board may look different; the same method still works.)
- 1
emerald region → row 3, column 3
Start with the emerald region: every other square in it already shares a row or column with a cat placed elsewhere, so its cat lands on row 3, column 3.
- 2
green region → row 7, column 7
The green region resolves next — only row 7, column 7 avoids sharing a row or column with an already-placed cat.
- 3
indigo region → row 8, column 4
In the indigo region, row 8, column 4 is the last square that doesn't clash with another cat's line, so place the cat there.
- 4
pink region → row 2, column 5
That forces the pink region: its remaining squares all touch a placed cat or share its row or column, leaving row 2, column 5.
- 5
amber region → row 1, column 1
Next comes the amber region — every square but row 1, column 1 is ruled out by an existing cat's row, column, or corner.
- 6
orange region → row 6, column 2
The orange region resolves next — only row 6, column 2 avoids sharing a row or column with an already-placed cat.
- 7
blue region → row 4, column 6
In the blue region, row 4, column 6 is the last square that doesn't clash with another cat's line, so place the cat there.
- 8
violet region → row 5, column 8
That forces the violet region: its remaining squares all touch a placed cat or share its row or column, leaving row 5, column 8.

Common Level 20 Mistakes to Avoid
Watch the closest pair
The tightest spot on this board is rows 2 and 3: their cats sit just 2 columns apart (columns 5 and 3). This is exactly where the "no two cats touch, even diagonally" rule is easiest to break — keep one square of clearance on every side.
Leave the biggest region for last
With 18 open cells, the violet region looks wide open early on. Don't place there by feel; once the other rows and columns are claimed it collapses to exactly one spot, no guess required.
Lock the corner first
The amber region's cat is pinned to the top-left corner (row 1, column 1). Corners have the fewest neighbors, so this is your safest opening anchor — misread it and the error spreads across the whole board.
How to Solve Level 20 Faster
Open where it's tightest
Start with the emerald region (row 3, column 3). It has the fewest open squares, so it forces a cat with zero guesswork — the natural first move on this board.
Eliminate, then chain
After each cat, cross out its whole row, column, and color region plus the eight squares around it. On this board that immediately thins the green and indigo regions down to one option each — follow that chain instead of guessing.
Finish in the open region
The violet region resolves last at row 5, column 8 — once the rest of the board is filled, only that square survives every row and column rule.
