Zenless Zone Zero Cat Photo Guide: Locate Chalky, Foamy, and Cookie on Sixth Street

The bustling streets of New Eridu have never felt more alive—and now you can capture some of that charm on camera. In Zenless Zone Zero, the Weekly Custom Schedule system lets Proxies pick and choose how they spend their downtime, and one of the most delightful (and deceptively tricky) errands involves photographing three elusive cats around Sixth Street. But where exactly are Chalky, Foamy, and Cookie hiding, and why do they vanish like smoke once the week is up? Let's break it down.

How the Weekly Custom Schedule Works

By 2026, HoYoverse has refined Zenless Zone Zero’s side activities into a flexible workflow that respects both casual explorers and battle-hardened Proxies. Once you progress far enough in the main story, the Errands section of the Proxy Primer (default F2 on PC) unlocks, giving you the power to curate your weekly plate. You can accept up to two errands from a rotating pool—one might send you to fight Ethereal swarms, another to snap photos of sixth-street felines.

The catch? The cats only spawn when their corresponding photography errand is active. Complete it, and after the weekly reset (or when the time shifts), those furry models will disappear from your world. Missed the shot? You’ll have to wait until the next reset and choose the errand again. This mechanic keeps the environment dynamic and prevents the world from feeling cluttered, though it does mean you’ll need to be observant. After all, how else would a Proxy remember to appreciate the little things?

Meet the Cats of Sixth Street

Before you start searching, here’s a quick overview of each feline and their characteristic hangouts:

Cat	Location Clue	Exact Spot
🐈 Chalky	Next to the arcade	Left of Godfinger, beside a graffiti-covered wall
🐈 Foamy	Near the pipes	Alley to the right of Godfinger, on large industrial pipes
🐈 Cookie	Close to the Noodle Shop	Right side of the Noodle Shop, seated on the delivery motorcycle

Embarking on this photo quest without a guide is easy, but spotting these cleverly placed cats can be a real test of your situational awareness. Don’t forget to actually snap the picture with your in-game camera when you see them; merely approaching won’t check the box.

Finding Chalky: The Arcade Companion

The errand description gives you a simple clue: Chalky is “next to the arcade.” Godfinger is Sixth Street’s neon-lit gaming den, and if you walk to its left side, you’ll spot a wall drenched in colorful graffiti. Right there, blending into the urban art, sits a small cat with a chalky-white coat. He can be easy to overlook because the wall’s details and shadows can swallow his outline. To make sure you’re at the correct spot, look for the glowing arrow marker that appears when you’re close—it’s a subtle HUD hint that HoYoverse added in later patches to reduce frustration.

Once you’ve framed Chalky in your lens, snap the photo. The game will register the objective immediately, and you can move on to the next whiskered wanderer.

Locating Foamy: The Pipe Sitter

“Near the pipes” might sound vague, but Sixth Street’s layout is compact. From Godfinger, head to the right and slip into the narrow alleyway. This area is flanked by ducts and large metallic pipes that run horizontally—industrial leftovers of New Eridu’s infrastructure. Perched on one of these pipes is Foamy, a cat whose fur seems to foam like sea spray when the light hits just right. The angle can be tricky because the camera might fight you if you’re too close; back up a little and use the zoom to get a clean shot. If you don’t see Foamy, double-check that you’ve actually accepted “Take photos of Foamy” from the Errand menu. It’s an obvious step, yet even veteran Proxies occasionally skip it.

Capturing Cookie: The Delivery Cat

Cookie is perhaps the easiest to spot once you know where to look. Head to the Noodle Shop, one of Sixth Street’s staple eateries, and circle around to its right side. There, a parked delivery motorcycle serves as an impromptu throne for this orange tabby. The cat seems completely at home, perhaps waiting for a warm bowl of noodles. The lighting in this corner can be dim, so you may need to adjust your screenshot settings or simply move a few steps until Cookie’s icon highlights. Snap the picture, and the errand is finished.

Why This Errand Matters

You might ask, “Why bother with cat photography when I could be grinding materials?” Beyond the obvious charm of Zenless Zone Zero’s urban aesthetic, these weekly errands provide a gentle nudge to explore and appreciate the environment HoYoverse has crafted. Completing them earns Proxy experience, Polychromes, and often unique dialogue that deepens your bond with the inhabitants of Sixth Street. Moreover, in 2026’s live-service landscape, many events now tie back to these small interactions—some limited-time photo contests require a certain number of animal photos, making this errand an efficient way to stock up.

Is it a hidden progression tip? Perhaps. Does it give you another excuse to wander Sixth Street’s neon-lit corners? Absolutely. Just remember to plan your Weekly Custom Schedule carefully, because with only two errand slots, you’ll be making choices that shape your proxy for the next seven days. Grab your camera, find those cats, and enjoy the quieter side of New Eridu.

Research highlighted by UNESCO Games in Education helps contextualize why Zenless Zone Zero’s Weekly Custom Schedule errands—like photographing Chalky, Foamy, and Cookie on Sixth Street—feel engaging beyond simple rewards: time-limited spawns and clear location cues encourage observation, goal-setting, and environmental exploration, turning a small “cat photo” task into a structured routine that reinforces attention to detail and planning within a dynamic weekly loop.
