Hey, it's Darth here, excited to present today's MEOW! The idea for this meta was formed after a family event during the holidays. It was originally titled "Cryptic Collaboration" with a plan toward a meta challenge that would encourage a "group" solve. Not to worry, it's much tamer now and more accessible.

I'd love to say more, but I don't want to spoil the joy of discovery. After all, that's what "lateral thinking" is all about!

The answer to this meta is a group activity.

(Oh, and a special shout out to @DrTom for the helpful advice and to @Joe Ross for the technical help.)

The cat is gone. Thanks, Darth.

Cat's free! Fun puzzle.

Feline debagged! Clever, and a fun solve, Darth!

Cat is free and taking a post-breakfast nap (which could be a group activity except (a) I've got to go to work and (b) the other cats are upstairs).

Bag is catless!

Fun!

Cat is free and enjoying some of our rare sunshine.
Very fun solve! Thanks.

The cat is free! Clever one! Thanks, Darth!

The cat has been debagged. Thanks for the puzzle, Darth!

The cat is on the prowl!

The cat is off the crouch and laterally flying through the air. Fun one.

Cat is out - thanks, Darth!

The cat and I are both out. O sole MEOW. Thanks, Darth!

Cat is out. That was fun! Thanks Darth!

That was fun, and no need to go to the dark side because the force was with us.

Cat glaring at me for having left it bagged for so long.

Needed a second look, but then it fell quickly. Fun stuff, thanks.

Cat is free! Fun one, Darth.

Cat says this was the purrrfect challenge for a tired kitty after a long day of work! Thanks for the fun, Darth!

Cat is out, thanks to a helping hand from a fellow muggle. Thanks for creating the puzzle, @Darth!
