@latvia13  What happens when you try to have your sims catch bugs?  And does your computer run Windows or macOS?  This is a known issue with the 64-bit Mac version.

    So basically when I try to press a big, no option to press collect comes up. I have a MacBook Pro so is it a software related issue or no?

      @latvia13  Yes, it's a problem with the 64-bit Mac version of Sims 3.  There isn't a proper fix, but workarounds include using the Harvester (Ambitions) or training a cat to hunt.

      I've merged your posts with the master thread for the issue.
