Knowing MEOW I was certain it was part of the metaSchmeel wrote: โWed Apr 28, 2021 3:22 pmOh that explains a lot - I'll reprint it. No problem.
I'm close to finishing filling in the grid - I was wondering about the missing clues, 'No Clue's and incorrect cross references. I thought it might be part of the meta!
MEOW #22: Abraham Lincoln

I downloaded the .puz version, which is colorless, earlier today. Is it usable? Or can I go ahead and finish filling in the grid?madhatter5 wrote: โWed Apr 28, 2021 3:06 pm At the risk of speaking too soon, I think it is fixed now.

Yes. I completed (and solved) using only the PUZ version of the puzzle which I downloaded first thing this morning.Bird Lives wrote: โWed Apr 28, 2021 5:15 pm I downloaded the .puz version, which is colorless, earlier today. Is it usable? Or can I go ahead and finish filling in the grid?

As I wrote to Josh: What a fabulous idea and execution! This was one of the best creep-up-on-the-aha I've ever experienced...

Still stuck. But I do like the 17A clue. I have not seen that one before.

My first ever attempt at a MEOW. And the cat's out of the bag.
Given Monday, Wednesday and Friday metas, I may have to quit my job!

Looking in the wrong places. Finally, the cat found its way way out of the stovepipe hat.

Finished this one after the nudges - was headed in the right direction but hadn't quite made the connection - cat is now free to roam.

Solution (courtesy of Joe Ross):
I accepted either the Gettysburg Address or the Declaration of Independence.
