Hint: how to open level 18

The first three logical moves on this board, in order. Stop reading after the first one if you only want a nudge.

  1. Every open cell of the Sky region lies in row 6. That cat will use row 6, so the other cells of row 6 can be crossed out. Cross out row 6, column 1; row 6, column 2; row 6, column 3; row 6, column 4 .
  2. Only one cell is left in the Butter region, so the cat must go there. Cat at row 5, column 4.
  3. Only one cell is left in the Sky region, so the cat must go there. Cat at row 6, column 6.
