In the Roblox horror survival experience 7 Days Cat-Sitting, keeping Whiskers happy is normally your top priority if you want to reach the Cannon Good Ending. However, the game features 24 official catalog badges, many of which require intentionally neglecting specific chores or failing anomaly encounters.
The 7 Days Cat Sitting Ancy badge is one of these specific bad endings. According to player walkthroughs and wiki outcome logs, unlocking Ancy requires going to sleep without playing with Whiskers. Here is how the trigger works, how to isolate it from other chore failures, and how to ensure the game awards you the correct badge.
How to Trigger the Ancy Ending
To get the Ancy badge, you must deliberately leave Whiskers' laser playtime incomplete before heading to bed. While the official Roblox badge description does not explicitly state the trigger requirements, community ending logs consistently link the result screen to neglected cat play.
Follow these steps during your shift to test the route:
- Feed Whiskers by retrieving the can from the kitchen drawers and placing food into the bowl.
- Open the laundry room door to let Whiskers use the litter box, then complete the cleaning minigame.
- Completely skip the living room laser pointer chore, or set it down before the blue progress bar finishes.
- Prepare your own microwave meal from the fridge, eat dinner, and close the refrigerator door.
- Step outside to grab the mail from the mailbox, return inside, and lock the front door.
- Handle any active anomaly that appears during the evening.
- Interact with the bed to sleep and trigger the night's outcome screen.
If playtime was the only incomplete task, the night should conclude with the Ancy result screen and award the badge to your Roblox inventory.
Isolating Ancy from Other Chore Endings
Because 7 Days Cat-Sitting assigns separate badges to almost every missed household duty, you must keep the rest of your daily routine clean. Skipping multiple chores at once creates conflicting conditions, making it difficult to control which badge the game registers.
The table below breaks down the different chore-related endings to help you keep your badge runs distinct:
| Badge Name | Deliberate Action | What You Must Still Complete |
|---|---|---|
| Ancy | Go to bed without finishing laser play | Food, litter box, microwave dinner, mail, locked door |
| Unfinished Business | Go to bed without feeding Whiskers | Laser play, litter box, dinner, mail, locked door |
| Uh oh Stinky | Go to bed without cleaning the litter box | Cat food, laser play, dinner, mail, locked door |
| Starved | Go to bed without heating and eating dinner | Cat food, litter box, laser play, mail, locked door |
| Evicted | Go to bed without collecting the mail | All cat chores, dinner, locked door |
| Intruder Alert | Go to bed without locking the front door | All cat chores, mail, dinner, door kept closed |
By completing every chore except the laser pointer, you ensure that missed play is the sole registered failure when you interact with the bed.
Normal Play vs. Ancy vs. Blackhole
The laser pointer in the living room is tied to three completely different outcomes in 7 Days Cat-Sitting. Understanding how the play mechanic works helps prevent accidental triggers during clean runs.
Normal Playtime
On a standard survival run, pick up the laser pointer from the living room table and aim the red dot near Whiskers. A blue bar appears on screen to track play progress. Keep the dot close to Whiskers until the blue bar fills completely. Moving the dot too far away causes the bar to reset.
The Ancy Route
For the Ancy badge, leave the laser pointer on the table or ignore the blue bar entirely. Once the cat's food and litter are sorted, simply proceed to your own dinner and mail routine without finishing the play bar.
The Blackhole Route
Do not confuse Ancy with the Blackhole badge. While Ancy involves neglecting play, Blackhole requires actively using the laser pointer. To unlock Blackhole, spin the beam in tight, rapid circles to make Whiskers chase it in place at extreme speed until physics break. Keep Blackhole attempts completely separate from your Ancy test runs.
Troubleshooting Missing Badges
If you head to bed and receive a different outcome instead of Ancy, check the following details on your next attempt:
- Check the Result Text: If you receive Unfinished Business or Uh oh Stinky, Whiskers' feeding or litter box cleaning was not registered before sleep.
- Review the Laser Bar: If you picked up the pointer at all, ensure you did not accidentally fill the blue play bar to completion before putting it down.
- Inspect the Front Door: Make sure the front door is shut and locked. Leaving it wide open triggers Cya Later, while leaving it unlocked triggers Intruder Alert.
- Day Requirements: Official badge listings do not mandate a specific day of the week for Ancy. However, testing the omission on Day 1 provides the fastest turnaround if you need to restart.
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes the Ancy badge in 7 Days Cat Sitting?
The Ancy badge is awarded when you go to sleep without completing Whiskers' daily laser pointer playtime while keeping your other chores finished.
Is the Ancy badge tied to a specific day?
The game does not state a specific day requirement for Ancy. Walkthrough testing indicates it can be triggered early in the week by skipping play on that evening.
Does Ancy require failing any anomalies?
No. Ancy is strictly a chore omission ending. You should still resolve any hallway, window, or door anomalies that appear during the night to prevent an anomaly-specific death from overriding the badge.
