Nice puzzle. The first time I solved this I got a rare red-ball. Aaargh!#9: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Dec 26, 2012
This time it ran smoothly. Edge logic on the 6 in c 20 places it completely. That fixes the right side and most of the top with the following line logic.
(You need to place the red pixel with color logic if you haven't already.)
Then deep edge logic on the 9 in r18. If it goes all the way right to c13 then it creates a block of 3 in r17 (c11-13). This conflicts, so r18c13 must be white. Then line logic to finish.
The mouse looks very content.
thanks, Joe#10: Jota (jota) on Dec 30, 2012
Excellent solve!#11: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Dec 30, 2012 [SPOILER]
I got through it with a bunch of edge logic. When I finished, I said to myself "what mouse?" then pop! "Oh, there it is" very nice.#12: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Dec 30, 2012
thanks, Brian and Jota!#13: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jun 6, 2013
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.#14: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Apr 14, 2018
Don't get it.#15: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Apr 14, 2018
You're a cat. You should brush up on your hunting skills.#16: robert svanberg (tango) on Apr 14, 2018
Very clever. Unexpected image popping out at the end of a tricky solve. Gotta love it.
