How do I reach the left part of 12,16 ?

Ah, right, that star is on the spikes not on the exit space, I forgot.
Okay, so you've managed to get a spare cat, and the portal in the room giving you one spare cat would suggest you need one spare... but you're right you need one more. The entrance to the room is as wide as it is for a reason. There's a different solution to 11,17 when you start with an extra cat that will get you there.
If you need a hint, you won't take both original cats out, you need to sacrifice one of them fairly early to relocate a troublesome part of the level. Then you'll be able to take the other and both revived cats.
Ah, okay. Three is enough. So I'm not sure exactly where you're stuck since there are a lot of places here where it looks like you'll be close, and then lose the plot (as I found out the hard way), but a few suggestions:
1) First thing you need to push across is the flag, This starts with two of the starting cats plus the revived cat from the medusa section, and using the "cats don't turn unless they move" mechanic.
2) Never push a cat across the conveyor, only flags and rocks.
3) I found it easiest (maybe necessary) to stash the level-ending cat in the south tunnel to set things up so that I could recharge moves by moving up onto a flag, since otherwise it was too easy to either walk onto the spikes or accidentally walk onto the conveyor.
