I agree with horseradish1 - it's nice to have an easier puzzle now and again. Thanks for this one.

after restarting the puzzle 3 times... read the rules again and notice the "Within a cage" of the last rule :-D

@horseradish1 Thank you for the kind words. I'm very glad you enjoyed it!
I know exactly what you mean on the difficulty. It's hard to estimate, both as a solver and a setter.

I've had a real dry spell the past couple of weeks, and haven't been able to solve anything, even puzzles often rated as easy. This puzzle got me back in the swing, and it was a really nice solve. It took me a few attempts because I kept getting the combinations for the 8 cages around the wrong way. This was a really great puzzle!
