In the Roblox horror survival experience 7 Days Cat-Sitting by HELP ME PLEASE studios, surviving a full week requires attending to Whiskers while dealing with bizarre anomalies. However, the game features 24 distinct badges, many tied to specific bad endings caused by neglecting your daily responsibilities.
If you are hunting for the 7 Days Cat Sitting unfinished business badge, you must deliberately fail a single chore: feeding the cat. Here is how to trigger this ending cleanly without accidentally causing a different failure screen.
How to Unlock the Unfinished Business Badge
To unlock the Unfinished Business badge, you must go to bed without putting food in Whiskers' bowl while completing all other nightly responsibilities. According to third-party walkthroughs and recorded gameplay ending screens, neglecting Whiskers' meal causes you to wake up to a spectral cat haunting the house.
The official Roblox badge directory lists Unfinished Business under a "Hard" rarity tier, but the badge description itself does not state the unlock criteria. Community guides from Gamezebo and dedicated fan wikis confirmed that leaving the food bowl empty before sleeping is the trigger. There is no confirmed requirement to skip meals across multiple days or pick a specific night; skipping the chore on a single day and heading to sleep triggers the outcome.
Step-by-Step Route to Get the Ending
Because multiple endings trigger at bedtime when tasks are left incomplete, you must isolate the feeding chore. Leaving other tasks unfinished may award different badges instead, such as Uh oh Stinky or Ancy.
Follow these steps during your chosen day to secure the badge:
- Leave the food bowl empty: Do not open the kitchen drawers or cupboard to retrieve the can of cat food. Leave Whiskers' bowl completely untouched on the kitchen floor.
- Clean the litter box: Head to the laundry room off the kitchen. Once Whiskers uses the box, complete the cleaning minigame by dragging the waste into the trash bag. Skipping this triggers the Uh oh Stinky ending instead.
- Play with Whiskers: Pick up the laser pointer from the living room table and guide the beam until the blue interaction bar fills completely. Skipping this triggers the Ancy ending.
- Prepare your own dinner: Open the refrigerator, take the microwave meal to the microwave, heat it, and eat it. Do not forget to shut the fridge door (to avoid the Cold as Ice badge) and ensure you eat the meal (to avoid the Starved badge).
- Collect the mail and lock up: Walk out the front door, grab the letters from the mailbox, head back inside, and lock the door behind you. Leaving the door open triggers Cya Later, leaving it unlocked leads to Intruder Alert, and ignoring the mail results in Evicted.
- Counter any active anomalies: If an anomaly appears—such as the Tall Man in the hallway, Granny at the door, or a face in the window—neutralize it using the proper countermeasure before heading to sleep.
- Interact with the bed: Once everything except the cat bowl is handled, interact with the bed to sleep. The night will end, the result screen will appear, and Roblox will award the Unfinished Business badge.
Daily Chore Comparison: Normal Run vs. Unfinished Business
To prevent confusion during your run, review how your actions should differ between aiming for the standard win condition and aiming for this specific bad ending:
| Task / Checkpoint | Cannon Good Ending Route | Unfinished Business Route |
|---|---|---|
| Whiskers' Food Bowl | Take food can from cupboard/drawer and fill bowl | Leave bowl empty; do not interact with cat food |
| Litter Box | Open laundry door and finish cleanup minigame | Clean litter box as normal |
| Laser Pointer | Play until the blue bar fills completely | Play until the blue bar fills completely |
| Personal Dinner | Microwave meal, eat it, and close fridge | Microwave meal, eat it, and close fridge |
| Front Door & Mail | Grab mail from mailbox and lock front door | Grab mail from mailbox and lock front door |
| Anomalies | Counter all threats (photos, blinds, flushing) | Counter all threats to prevent an override |
| End of Day | Sleep in bed to advance the week | Sleep in bed to trigger the badge screen |
Troubleshooting Bedtime Badge Overrides
If you sleep and receive a different badge than Unfinished Business, review the day's events to find which secondary check failed:
- Uh oh Stinky or Ancy: You left the litter box uncleaned or did not fill the laser pointer's blue progress bar.
- Starved or Cold as Ice: You forgot to eat the heated microwave dinner or left the refrigerator door open before walking to the bedroom.
- Evicted, Cya Later, or Intruder Alert: You forgot the mailbox, left the front door wide open, or forgot to click the lock after stepping inside.
- Entity endings (e.g., Peek a boo, I See You, Down the Drain): An anomaly spawned during the day and was not countered, causing that entity's failure screen to take priority when you went to bed.
Keep your run focused on fulfilling every requirement except the cat food can, and the Unfinished Business badge will unlock as soon as you sleep.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens in the Unfinished Business ending?
Walkthrough observations show that going to sleep without feeding Whiskers causes you to wake up to Whiskers haunting the home as a ghost.
Does Unfinished Business require skipping food on a specific night?
No. Community walkthroughs and wiki tests confirm that leaving the bowl empty on any single day before sleeping triggers the ending.
Should I leave the litter box dirty or skip laser play too?
No. Leaving the litter box uncleaned triggers the Uh oh Stinky ending, while skipping playtime triggers the Ancy ending. Keep both of those chores fully completed so the game registers the empty food bowl as your sole failure.
