WTF?? Yes, I won it 3 times out of about the 10-12 times I played. Why the hell would I lie about it?
You don't "win" until the cat ends up on one circle, so they got all filled in. Then, no fireworks or anything, it just went to another one.
Here's a tip: Work from the outside in. You don't want the cat to get too close to where you are. As soon as you determine its direction, try to cover it (but kinda far from it). And don't let it get too close to the edge or you're effed.
