Cat Noir Puzzle - Don't Let the Cat Escape

A simple puzzle but more challenging that it looks

From Lee Seats, for About.com

The object of the Cat Noir puzzle game is to block the cat from escaping the game board. The game board is an 11x11 grid of circles arranged as if they were hexagons. The cat always starts in the center. When the game starts there are various spots that are already set to block the cat.

You take your turn by clicking on a circle block the cat. After each turn the cat moves to another circle. You win the game when the cat has no more unblocked moves. you lose if the cat makes it off the game board.

Some starting arrangements are pretty easy and some are quite challenging. You need to think ahead and make the moves that most restrict the movement of the cat. Anyone who like puzzles, or cats, or both will enjoy wasting some time with this little puzzle game diversion.
