Start Level 112 from the confirmed cat at H9.
Before any earlier pictured placement, no used row or column excludes another cell from this color region, while the no-touch rule adds no further region exclusion. The region containing H9 is left with H9; row 9 still allows A9, B9, C9, D9, E9, F9, G9, H9, and I9, and column H still allows H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, H7, H8, and H9. The region consists only of H9, so its cat must be placed there.
Candidate scope — color region: H9; row 9: A9, B9, C9, D9, E9, F9, G9, H9, and I9; column H: H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, H7, H8, and H9.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 0 cells from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 0 cells.
Forced conclusion — H9 is the color region's only legal cell.

Step 2: Place the cat at A7
A7 is forced by contradiction: treating it as empty leaves the color region covering A1, A2, and A3 without a legal cell.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add A7 while keeping H9 fixed; the board diagram now shows 2/9 cats.
With H9 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude 9 cells, including H8, A9, B9, C9, D9, and E9 from this color region, while the no-touch rule additionally excludes G8 and I8 by orthogonal or diagonal contact. The region containing A7 is left with A7 and A8; row 7 still allows A7, B7, C7, D7, E7, F7, G7, and I7, and column A still allows A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, and A8. Rejecting A7 forces A8 → D7 → C5, after which the color region covering A1, A2, and A3 has no legal cell. Therefore A7 must contain the cat.
Candidate scope — color region: A7 and A8; row 7: A7, B7, C7, D7, E7, F7, G7, and I7; column A: A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, and A8.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 9 cells (H8, A9, B9, C9, D9, and E9 among them) from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 2 cells (G8 and I8).
Forced conclusion — rejecting A7 forces A8 → D7 → C5 and empties the color region covering A1, A2, and A3.

Step 3: Place the cat at D5
D5 is forced by contradiction: treating it as empty leaves the color region covering D4, C5, and D5 without a legal cell.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add D5 while keeping H9 and A7 fixed; the board diagram now shows 3/9 cats.
With H9 and A7 already fixed, no used row or column excludes another cell from this color region, while the no-touch rule adds no further region exclusion. The region containing D5 is left with D4, C5, and D5; row 5 still allows B5, C5, D5, E5, F5, G5, and I5, and column D still allows D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, and D8. Rejecting D5 lets the remaining row, column, color-region, and no-touch eliminations exhaust the color region covering D4, C5, and D5. Therefore D5 must contain the cat.
Candidate scope — color region: D4, C5, and D5; row 5: B5, C5, D5, E5, F5, G5, and I5; column D: D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, and D8.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 0 cells from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 0 cells.
Forced conclusion — rejecting D5 exhausts the color region covering D4, C5, and D5.

Step 4: Place the cat at G6
G6 is the only legal cell left in its color region after the earlier placements remove every alternative.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add G6 while keeping H9, A7, and D5 fixed; the board diagram now shows 4/9 cats.
With H9, A7, and D5 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude 8 cells, including B5, G5, D6, C7, E7, and F7 from this color region, while the no-touch rule additionally excludes B6, C6, and E6 by orthogonal or diagonal contact. The region containing G6 is left with G6; row 6 still allows F6, G6, and I6, and column G still allows G1, G2, G3, G4, and G6. Only G6 remains in the required color region, so the placement is forced.
Candidate scope — color region: G6; row 6: F6, G6, and I6; column G: G1, G2, G3, G4, and G6.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 8 cells (B5, G5, D6, C7, E7, and F7 among them) from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 3 cells (B6, C6, and E6).
Forced conclusion — G6 is the color region's only legal cell.

Step 5: Place the cat at F8
F8 is forced by contradiction: treating it as empty leaves the color region covering B7, D7, and B8 without a legal cell.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add F8 while keeping H9, A7, D5, and G6 fixed; the board diagram now shows 5/9 cats.
With H9, A7, D5, and G6 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude B7, D7, and D8 from this color region, while the no-touch rule additionally excludes B8 by orthogonal or diagonal contact. The region containing F8 is left with C8, E8, and F8; row 8 still allows C8, E8, and F8, and column F still allows F1, F2, F3, F4, and F8. Rejecting F8 forces B4 → E3 → C2, after which the color region covering B7, D7, and B8 has no legal cell. Therefore F8 must contain the cat.
Candidate scope — color region: C8, E8, and F8; row 8: C8, E8, and F8; column F: F1, F2, F3, F4, and F8.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 3 cells (B7, D7, and D8) from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 1 cell (B8).
Forced conclusion — rejecting F8 forces B4 → E3 → C2 and empties the color region covering B7, D7, and B8.

Step 6: Place the cat at B4
B4 is the only legal cell left in its color region after the earlier placements remove every alternative.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add B4 while keeping H9, A7, D5, G6, and F8 fixed; the board diagram now shows 6/9 cats.
With H9, A7, D5, G6, and F8 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6 from this color region, while the no-touch rule additionally excludes C4 by orthogonal or diagonal contact. The region containing B4 is left with B4; row 4 still allows B4 and I4, and column B still allows B1, B2, B3, and B4. Only B4 remains in the required color region, so the placement is forced.
Candidate scope — color region: B4; row 4: B4 and I4; column B: B1, B2, B3, and B4.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 6 cells (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6) from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 1 cell (C4).
Forced conclusion — B4 is the color region's only legal cell.

Step 7: Place the cat at E3
E3 is the only legal cell left in its color region after the earlier placements remove every alternative.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add E3 while keeping H9, A7, D5, G6, F8, and B4 fixed; the board diagram now shows 7/9 cats.
With H9, A7, D5, G6, F8, and B4 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude 13 cells, including D3, E4, F4, G4, H4, and E5 from this color region, while the no-touch rule adds no further region exclusion. The region containing E3 is left with E3; row 3 still allows E3 and I3, and column E still allows E1, E2, and E3. Only E3 remains in the required color region, so the placement is forced.
Candidate scope — color region: E3; row 3: E3 and I3; column E: E1, E2, and E3.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 13 cells (D3, E4, F4, G4, H4, and E5 among them) from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 0 cells.
Forced conclusion — E3 is the color region's only legal cell.

Step 8: Place the cat at C2
C2 is the only legal cell left in its color region after the earlier placements remove every alternative.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add C2 while keeping H9, A7, D5, G6, F8, B4, and E3 fixed; the board diagram now shows 8/9 cats.
With H9, A7, D5, G6, F8, B4, and E3 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude 12 cells, including D2, E2, F2, G2, H2, and B3 from this color region, while the no-touch rule adds no further region exclusion. The region containing C2 is left with C2; row 2 still allows C2 and I2, and column C still allows C1 and C2. Only C2 remains in the required color region, so the placement is forced.
Candidate scope — color region: C2; row 2: C2 and I2; column C: C1 and C2.
Exclusion rules — used rows/columns remove 12 cells (D2, E2, F2, G2, H2, and B3 among them) from the region; orthogonal/diagonal no-touch adds 0 cells.
Forced conclusion — C2 is the color region's only legal cell.

Step 9: Place the cat at I1
I1 is the only legal cell left in its color region after the earlier placements remove every alternative.
Region 1Region 2Region 3Region 4Region 5Region 6Region 7Region 8Region 9
Add I1 while keeping H9, A7, D5, G6, F8, B4, E3, and C2 fixed; the board diagram now shows 9/9 cats.
With H9, A7, D5, G6, F8, B4, E3, and C2 already fixed, used rows or columns exclude 9 cells, including B1, C1, D1, E1, F1, and G1 from this color region, while the no-touch rule adds no further region exclusion. The region containing I1 is left with I1; row 1 still allows I1, and column I still allows I1. Only I1 remains in the required color region, so the placement is forced.

The completed Level 112 visual board: I1, C2, E3, B4, D5, G6, A7, F8, and H9.
Logic recap
Why This Solves Level 112
The final placements (I1, C2, E3, B4, D5, G6, A7, F8, H9) cover 9 rows and 9 columns exactly once. Each cat stays inside the 9x9 board and keeps the row, column, and no-touching rules intact.
Final check
Rows 1-9 each contain one cat.
Columns A-I each contain one cat.
No two final cats touch, including diagonally.

Practice Cat Logic Without Breaking Your Flow
Meowdoku blends Sudoku-style row and column logic with colored regions: place one cat in each region, and never let two cats share a row, share a column, or touch.
If ads or limited hearts interrupt your solving flow—or you simply want X marks and help tools close at hand—play the same style of cat logic on our original original practice boards.
The final cat positions are I1, C2, E3, B4, D5, G6, A7, F8, H9.
How many cats are in Meowdoku Level 112?
Level 112 uses a 9x9 board, so the answer places 9 cats.
Do I need to watch the Level 112 video?
No. The written steps and board diagrams show the complete answer path. The video is only an optional reference.
Is this an official Meowdoku level guide?
No. This is an unofficial independent guide that explains the logic for players. It is not affiliated with the official Meowdoku app or its developers.
