Keep using EL on this one: On R1 and R10 first, then C1 or C20, then R2 or R9 (whichever has the 3 clue on the side of the column you did)#3: Andrew Schultz (blurglecruncheon) on May 8, 2023 [HINT]
I had fun with the zigzagging EL here.#4: Valerie Mates (valerie) on May 8, 2023 [SPOILER]
Off to look at toys #1-11! I think I must have missed them.
As I was solving it, I thought it was looking like a picture of a brain, so I was thinking through how a brain could be a cat toy. I was thinking that maybe if the cat was challenging to its human in some way, that could be a brain challenge. But then it was something else entirely!#5: Valerie Mates (valerie) on May 8, 2023
Wombi, I am curious if your bio is a reference to BoJack Horseman?#6: Wombat (wombatilim) on May 9, 2023
#5 I picked it up from Neil Gaiman but I'm not sure where he got it from.#7: Valerie Mates (valerie) on May 9, 2023
Hm. Maybe BoJack Horseman was referring back to Neil Gaiman. Bojack was full of references, so it seems possible!#8: Belita (belita) on May 11, 2023 [SPOILER]
I think they must make hair ties out of catnip. My cat goes crazy over them too.
