Catcrate Picnic

Arrange four distinct cats around two picnic bowls without covering a bowl or the center basket. Pip is a two-cell kitten; Moss is a three-cell straight cat and must touch Pip. Nori is a shy two-cell cat: its HEAD must sit on the outside edge and it cannot touch any other cat. Dot is a three-cell bent cat and also needs a gap from every cat. Every cat must have at least one body cell directly beside a bowl. Tap a head cell to place the next cat; Rotate turns its footprint clockwise. Pip and Moss are the only pair allowed to touch. Undo removes the last cat.
