Free Meowdoku Solver

Stuck on a board? Paint your puzzle’s color regions below, from 4×4 up to 12×12, and the solver instantly reveals a valid cat placement — exactly one cat per row, column, and color region, with no two ever touching. No download, no sign-up.

What is the Meowdoku Solver?

The Meowdoku Solver is a free helper for the cat logic puzzle. Instead of randomly tapping cells and burning through mistakes, you recreate the board you’re looking at — just paint each colored region — and the solver works out where every cat belongs. It uses the exact same rules as the game, so the placement it shows is always legal.

It’s not just an answer button. It’s a practical way to understand a tricky board, check your own reasoning, or get unstuck on a larger 10×10 or 12×12 grid where the deduction gets heavy.

How to use it

  1. 1. Pick the board size. Match it to your puzzle — anything from 4×4 to 12×12.
  2. 2. Paint the regions. Choose a color, then tap the cells that belong to that region. Use a different color for each region. Tap a painted cell again to clear it.
  3. 3. Solve. Press Solve Board. The solver places one cat per row, column, and region, respecting the no-touching rule, and shows the result right on your grid.

The rules it follows

  • 🎨 Exactly one cat in each color region.
  • ↔️ Exactly one cat in every row and every column.
  • 🚫 No two cats may touch — not even diagonally.

Frequently asked questions

Does the solver work for every board size?+
Yes. It handles every size the game uses, from a tiny 4×4 up to a large 12×12. Just set the size to match your puzzle before painting.
What if my board has no solution?+
If the coloring you painted can’t satisfy all the rules, the solver tells you so. That usually means a region shape was painted incorrectly — double-check the outlines against your board.
Is it really free?+
Completely. No download, no account, no limits. Paint and solve as many boards as you like.
Will using the solver spoil the fun?+
Only if you let it. Many players use it just to check a single tricky step or confirm their logic, not to solve the whole board. If you’d rather learn to solve by hand, the How to Play guide walks through the deduction step by step.
