[FIXED] [CD] Cats getting stuck on counters and other furniture

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? C&D Patch
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Come Together, Get to Work, Cats and Dogs, Vampires, My First Pet
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? The first bug seems random and is not always occurring, but happens maybe half the time. Sometimes, when one of the cats in my household jumps on the counter or fridge, they get stuck there and the only way to unstick them is to go into build mode and move the object. This happens most offen with the BlandCo counter. The second bug seems to be an always occuring one, and that is with the Friend of the Animals aspiration.
What happens when the bug occurs? Cats get stuck on counters. Sometimes able to jump between one space of counter and top of fridge, but not able to move to the floor or even other connected counter sections. The train out misbehaviors goal does not actually register when a behavior is trained out of a cat. I get the message "cat has learned not to jump on counters" type of message, but my counter does not move up. This makes tiers two and three of the Friend of the Animals aspiration impossible to get legitimately if one only has cats. I'm unsure if this bug also occurs with dogs. The aspiration is active.
What do you expect to see? Cats should be able to get off of the counters and the aspiration counter should go up.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

    • Cats will no longer become stuck on top of surfaces after being lectured about jumping on surfaces.

    Should be fixed in Patch 1.48.90

    My cat is also stuck on the counter and can't come down no matter what I've made a sim do. Guess I'll have to force her down by taking out the counter.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a counter, wait for your cat to jump onto it, and tell them not to until they learn not to.
    What happens when the bug occurs? I will make my cat learn to not jump on counters, then they will not be able to get down.
    What do you expect to see? I expect to see them just jump off, and go do whatever they want.

    This has happened twice before, and I have deleted those saves since.

    The two may have a bit of connection actually. I noticed that when my cat gets stuck, if my sim lectures them it'll say that my cat learned not to jump on the counter after only lecturing them once but this doesn't count towards the aspiration. It also repeatedly says the cat learned not to jump on the counter when the cat is stuck.
