- Defeat the Fiends
- Follow Fluffy
- Bring the Cats Home
- Follow Fluffy
- Perform with the Villagers
Starting Location: My White-Haired Angel (Head Chef’s Request)
Track Down the Head Chef’s Cat
The cat is located on Mt. Nibel. Instead of heading north past Shinra Manor towards the reactor, you’ll be heading east from the Mt. Nibel Gate entrance. The cat is located at Mt. Nibel Southern Ascent.
Approach it for some dialogue and you’ll automatically give the cat some food.
Defeat the Fiends
You’ll then have to defeat four Guard Bees.
Follow Fluffy
Now follow Fluffy back to the west. You’ll have to defeat another group of Guard Bees, then a Queen Bee surrounded by more Guard Bees.
Bring the Cats Home
Next, you’ll have to get back to Nibelheim whilst escorting Fluffy and her kittens. Unfortunately, if you sprint then you’ll lose sight of her while she follows you, so you can only go at normal running speed. Thankfully, there are no enemies on the way.
Follow Fluffy
Follow Fluffy into Tifa’s House (Treatment Center) and head upstairs. Fluffy is next to the Head Chef playing the piano.
Perform with the Villagers
Interact with the piano right in front of you and you’ll collect Music Sheet “Aerith’s Theme”. You’ll then have to perform the song on the piano, although this time any rank is fine to complete the quest.

I can’t figure out how to get the gold star on this one! Any ideas (the only thing I can think of that I haven’t done perfectly is get S rank on the piano)… maybe it’s that?
MAxxe says
I got piano A rank and got a Perfect mission clear. It may be not allowing Fluffy to lose too much health during the hornet fights (she only lost about 20% for me)? Or a dialogue choice with the chef?
