Wow, am I actually able to post now?  I've seen a lot of interesting
ways people swear by for getting through the last room.  In fact, I
planned it like this-  There exist two rectangles - one within the
other.  They are invisible of course, but the game checks these to
decide when to swat the cat paw and when to acknowledge that you have
escaped.  As you might guess, the escape rect is WITHIN the "swat
rect."  How to?  The cat has a _brief_ refractory period.  Good luck!
