Hint: how to open level 5

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 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 1, column 5; row 4, column 5; row 5, column 5 .
  2. Every open cell of the Sky region lies in column 4. That cat will use column 4, so the other cells of column 4 can be crossed out. Cross out row 4, column 4; row 5, column 4 .
  3. Every open cell of the Butter region lies in column 3. That cat will use column 3, so the other cells of column 3 can be crossed out. Cross out row 1, column 3; row 2, column 3; row 5, column 3 .
