The opening idea
Take the violet R3C6, rose R5C4 and magenta R6C2 cats before choosing anything in the broad teal region. Those three independent anchors remove almost the whole pink region.
Meowdoku Level 11 answer
Try the deductions below first, or open the answer when you want to check your completed board.
Reveal all 6 cat positions
Cat coordinates
- R1C5Row 1, column 5
- R2C3Row 2, column 3
- R3C6Row 3, column 6
- R4C1Row 4, column 1
- R5C4Row 5, column 4
- R6C2Row 6, column 2
The 6 cats occupy distinct rows, columns and regions. Neighboring rows place cats at least two columns apart, so no cats touch at a corner.
Why the key move works
Violet has one square: R3C6
The violet region is just R3C6, so its cat is forced immediately. Cross out the other cells in row 3 and column 6, then the touching diagonal cells R2C5 and R4C5. Those diagonal exclusions will matter when you return to the pink region; they are not optional marks.

These are frames from Nasir Ali Gamer’s recorded Meowdoku playthrough. The clean diagrams use the same region geometry; their colors are visual identifiers. Video trial moves are preserved in the source frames and explained in the captions.
Read the regions before choosing a cat
teal: 18 cells; yellow: 6 cells; pink: 9 cells; violet: 1 cell; rose: 1 cell; magenta: 1 cell.
Count the remaining candidates in the narrow regions before choosing a square in the larger colors. Follow every region boundary; a color’s cat completes its entire region.
Complete solving process
All steps are shown below. The route uses rule-based deductions and explains each forced square or exclusion. You can use the answer above to check your board without reading the whole sequence.
region 3 has exactly one available square
Violet has one square: R3C6
The violet region is just R3C6, so its cat is forced immediately. Cross out the other cells in row 3 and column 6, then the touching diagonal cells R2C5 and R4C5. Those diagonal exclusions will matter when you return to the pink region; they are not optional marks.

region 4 has exactly one available square
Rose has one square: R5C4
The muted rose square at R5C4 is also an entire region. Put its cat there and close row 5 and column 4. The surrounding R4C3, R4C5, R6C3 and R6C5 cannot hold cats because they touch this one diagonally. Notice that R4C5 is now ruled out by two anchors.
Outlined cells show this step’s change. Cats and X marks carry forward.
region 5 has exactly one available square
Magenta has one square: R6C2
Place the magenta cat at R6C2, the single dark pink square in the bottom row. This closes row 6 and column 2 and removes R5C1 and R5C3 diagonally. Teal now occupies many crossed squares, but it still needs exactly one cat, just like every smaller region.
Outlined cells show this step’s change. Cats and X marks carry forward.
region 2 has exactly one available square
The pink cat is forced to R2C3
Recheck every pink square instead of guessing among the top ones. Row 3 is occupied by violet, row 5 by rose, and R4C5/R4C6 are blocked by the rose diagonal and column 6. In row 2, C2 is used by magenta, C4 by rose, and C5 touches the violet cat. Only R2C3 survives. Place the pink cat there and close column 3.
Outlined cells show this step’s change. Cats and X marks carry forward.
region 1 has exactly one available square
Yellow reduces to R1C5
The yellow region lies across row 1, with one extra square at R2C6. Row 2 already contains its pink cat, so that extra square is unavailable. In row 1, columns 2, 3, 4 and 6 already contain cats elsewhere. R1C5 is the only remaining yellow candidate and supplies the first-row cat.
Outlined cells show this step’s change. Cats and X marks carry forward.
region 0 has exactly one available square
Finish teal at R4C1
Five colors are solved and row 4 is the only empty row. Columns 2–6 are already occupied, so its cat must go at R4C1 in teal. Check that R4C1 and R5C4 do not touch, and then check all six columns once more. You should have six cats with one in each color, row and column.
Outlined cells show this step’s change. Cats and X marks carry forward.
What can go wrong on Level 11?
- R2C5 looks open until you check its diagonal contact with the violet cat at R3C6.
- The large teal area does not require extra cats: the rule is one per color, regardless of area.
- The source video includes an orange error mark at R4C3. It is a rejected trial; the valid teal answer is R4C1.
Audit the row, column, colored region and immediate diagonal neighbors after every cat. If your copied board gives no solution, check uncertain X marks before changing a region boundary.
The lesson to carry into the next board
A region with one square is an immediate anchor. On this board, three anchors remove enough cells to solve the broad regions using only the basic rules.
On your next puzzle, look for the same type of constraint before choosing a square. A useful question is: “Which row, column or region now has fewer candidates because of my last cat?” Keep the answer tied to a specific marked cell.

Board transcribed from the original Meowdoku app shown in Nasir Ali Gamer’s linked tutorial. Every region and cat coordinate was independently checked against the opening and completed video frames. Exact constraint enumeration found one solution, and the written logic uses only deterministic rule deductions. The different layout on meowdoku.app at this level number was rejected rather than treated as the original board. Videos may include rejected trial moves (orange crosses) or a different move order; those are not steps to copy. The diagrams and text teach a separate verified route for this exact video layout. No app build number is visible in the tutorial, so this guide identifies the version by source video and board shape.

Level 11 questions
What is the Meowdoku Level 11 answer?
For the 6×6 video board, place the cats at R1C5, R2C3, R3C6, R4C1, R5C4, R6C2. Match the region shapes first.
How do I get unstuck on Meowdoku Level 11?
After the first three anchors, inspect pink at R2C3. If another pink candidate remains, check column 2, column 4 and the diagonal next to R3C6.
