Level 180 / 350

Meowdoku level 180 — 10×10 answer

The solved board for Meowdoku level 180: a 10×10 grid with 10 coloured regions and 10 cats. Every row, every column and every colour holds exactly one cat, and no two cats touch.

How this Meowdoku board breaks down

Start with the smallest region on level 180 — it holds 2 cells, so its cat has very few legal homes. Once that cat is placed, its row, column and eight neighbours are gone, and the largest region (20 cells) suddenly has only a handful of options left. Work outward from there and the 10×10 board solves without a single guess.
