Puzzle Description:

Shoe and Shoo!

#1: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 29, 2009 [SPOILER]

That's an enchanted show (Cinderella's slipper) and an enchanted cat being shooed away by that mean old man.

Here is a treat for you - A fantasy tale about The Cat That Walked By Himself by Rudyard Kipling:

A little edge logic on the left will help place the 6 in C2.

Found to be logically solvable by Gator.

Good one Teresa. Thanks again.
#5: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 30, 2009
Thanks, Jewel. This one was a little more challenging to solve than the others.

Did you read the story? Kipling is a good storyteller. And the fable really does fit well with the puzzle. :-)

I liked the challenge of this one. Nice job. I was thinking this could have been "heel" (of the shoe and telling an animal to stay) but both meanings are spelled the same.

Thanks, Adam.

I thought it was going to be heel and heal.

Very good! I love the guy's head!
#10: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jan 1, 2010
Thanks, BlackCat.

I was hoping for a Red Cat for the cat :D
#12: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jan 5, 2010 [SPOILER]
Ah yes, I miss Red Cat. Vindersloon, where are you?
#13: Jane Doe (telly) on Jan 6, 2010 [SPOILER]
great one. I too thought along the lines of heel/heal etc. ;)

cute and funny! and enough of a challenge to keep it interesting all the way to the end of the solve.
