Hint: how to open level 3

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

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