This problem occurred after a few hours of normal game play. I was getting severely decayed needs or unhappy and thinking about running away notifications. When I checked on my sim, he was just standing still and actions in his queue were piling up, but not moving or disappearing. Same thing for my horse and dog. They were starving, but not moving to do anything and ignoring my sim when called to eat. The chickens, as well. Shift clicking and resetting them seemed to fix it momentarily, but it keeps occurring. My cow started doing the same thing, but the issue wouldn't stop after resetting her and the animal house. The only interactions that popped up were "actions or rename". When clicked on actions it gave "put in inventory or trade for..." . I tried to put her in the sim's inventory thinking that might do something, and now the poor cow is starving, dirty, and stuck in inventory. With all of the other animals and sims I could still fully interact with them, but with the cow I couldn't interact with her at all other than trading or moving her into inventory.

I don't know whether this may be related, but I've just noticed that a cow is stuck in my Sim's inventory after the Finchwick Fair. When I click the animal shed it has the option to 'purchase animal' but doesn't have the option to 'assign animal to shed'. Clicking on the cow or trying to drag it from the inventory doesn't do anything either.

I have downloaded the new update and this problem has come up after I downloaded the update.

I have attached some pictures of what is happening - I'm getting notifications reminding me that there is a cow in my inventory, but there's no way to get it out by clicking on the cow or the animal shed (there's nothing under the 'actions' option either).

I am having the same issue. Finally get my animals back from the fair but have no option to add back to animal shed. Animals are just stuck in my inventory.

I'm having exactly the same issue too. Have downloaded all the most recent updates, and purchased the Lovestruck EP. No mods installed, no cheats used. Poor Milkshake is just stuck in my pocket. 

Hello! I am unable to return my cow back into its shed after completing the fair. I've tried to assign the cow back to its shed, but to no avail. There was no option to do so. I was following what the notification said to do after completing the fair, but it did not work for me. I've tried selling and buying a new shed but it did not work. The cow isn't in the household inventory, but in my personal inventory. 

I read the other solutions but those are from 2021 and none of them work. I put my cow in my personal inventory and brought to the fair. I'm unable to drag the cow out of my inventory, and there are no other options other than to rename. I tried repurchasing a new shed, no way to assign animal. Any ideas on how to fix this? I could just sell the cow, but we have a full relationship bar!

I'm having the exact same problem. Clover went into my personal inventory after the Finchwick Fair, but now there's no "Assign Animal to Shed" option when clicking on her shed. She's just stuck in my Sim's inventory.

When I have my cow in my Sim's inventory after taking it to the Finchwich Fair, the option to assign to animal shed does not appear. I've tried selecting the cow and the animal shed, but the option doesn't come up on either. I've removed all mods and tried restarting my game. I only have one sim in my household.
