This game is supposedly hard, but I've gotten the cat several times. Tell me of your experience with this game.

It's pretty easy, although those aren't actual circles, you know. You have to completely restrict any movement that the cat might make, although considering you've prevented him from escaping you still won.

It's not hard. It only seems like it is due to the randomized starting layout and lack of knowledge regarding which direction the cat will head on its first move (though I've noticed it almost always goes up or down) leading to more than a few unwinnable games.

And yes, Solid is right - those aren't actually what the game recognizes as "victory," though any human with a bit of common sense would recognize it as victory.

EDIT: Picture added.

Pretty easy once you figure it out.

I like how you included a poll option for Fifth.

It's impossible and that cat sucks and I hate it and I hate this game. I hate this poll too.
