Cute! Took a little guessing, but I had a lot of fun on this one!

When I tested it, there were some tricky spots in the interior where you had to go three or four steps deep to eliminate a couple spots, but I didn't think that counted as guessing. Which were the trouble areas?

#7) you are right... about 11 moves down the road! This goes beyond advanced logic, since you have to look more than just 1-2 moves ahead.

#8) R13C4 requires 3 moves ahead to see why it is a dot.
R12C5 requires only 2 moves ahead to see why it is a dot (after placing a dot in R13C4).
R9C4 requires 3 moves ahead to see why it is a dot (after placing a dot in R12C5).

I am glad you didn't do the same theme as I did in puzzle #3370, or as Jota did in #3783, both of which had almost the exact same title.

Have to confess I wish I'd paid more attention before starting this puzzle. Looks like it would have had a cute solution, but I'm really not a fan of puzzles that require guessing of any sort.

I believe this can be solved without onerous look-ahead. Please look at http://infrapinklizzard.deviantart.com/art/Logic-8169-159024800 for my process.

Found to be logically solvable by Gator.

#21: Jane Doe (telly) on Apr 14, 2010
tough and I'm still not sure how logical it was I had to use your helps.
cute though!
#22: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 29, 2012
Found to be solvable with deep lookahead by gator.
#23: Gator (gator) on Jul 29, 2012
Re-classified.

Cute image!!

Some lookahead needed, but not more than most other puzzles it seems to me.
#26: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Oct 29, 2021
Adorable. Had to guess once. The mouth threw me off a bit. Very fun to solve.
