How to solve Meowdoku Level 22

Level 22 runs on a 7×7 grid. Because the emerald region has only 1 open square, its cat is forced first (row 1, column 2); each placement then clears rows, columns, and neighbors until the amber region is the last to settle. No guessing — every step below is a forced move. (The layout in your app may differ, but the technique is identical.)

  1. 1

    emerald region → row 1, column 2

    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 1, column 2.

  2. 2

    green region → row 6, column 4

    The green region resolves next — only row 6, column 4 avoids sharing a row or column with an already-placed cat.

  3. 3

    violet region → row 4, column 3

    In the violet region, row 4, column 3 is the last square that doesn't clash with another cat's line, so place the cat there.

  4. 4

    orange region → row 7, column 6

    That forces the orange region: its remaining squares all touch a placed cat or share its row or column, leaving row 7, column 6.

  5. 5

    pink region → row 3, column 5

    Next comes the pink region — every square but row 3, column 5 is ruled out by an existing cat's row, column, or corner.

  6. 6

    blue region → row 2, column 7

    The blue region resolves next — only row 2, column 7 avoids sharing a row or column with an already-placed cat.

  7. 7

    amber region → row 5, column 1

    In the amber region, row 5, column 1 is the last square that doesn't clash with another cat's line, so place the cat there.

Common Level 22 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 7 and 5). 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 12 open cells, the amber 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.

Don't skip the tightest region

No cat sits in a corner here, so the safest anchor is the emerald region — with only 1 open cell (row 1, column 2) it is the most forced square on the board. Players who start in a roomier region tend to stall.

How to Solve Level 22 Faster

Open where it's tightest

Start with the emerald region (row 1, column 2). 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 violet regions down to one option each — follow that chain instead of guessing.

Finish in the open region

The amber region resolves last at row 5, column 1 — once the rest of the board is filled, only that square survives every row and column rule.
