The four rules
- Each row has exactly one cat.
- Each column has exactly one cat.
- Each colored region has exactly one cat.
- Cats cannot touch, including diagonally.
What X marks mean
An X mark means a cell cannot contain a cat. Use X marks to track eliminated cells while you search for the only legal position in a row, column, or region.
