I'm going to mark this as fixed as there hasn't been any new reports since forever and testing my game, it seems fine.
If anyone still has it, please post.
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All expansions, vampires and parenthood game packs, none of the stuff packs.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Craft or purchase a wellness treat. Feed treat to pet.
What happens when the bug occurs? The pet on eating the wellness treat gets a negative moodlet that does not seem to have a timer and so just continues.
What do you expect to see? The pet not becoming endlessly in a negative/scared/uncomfortable mood after eating a wellness treat.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
Pinging this again, because I just ran into the exact same issue. Fed my cats wellness treats and now they are constantly scared. Tried other fixes such as cheat codes to remove moodlets, but nothing works, nor does feeding them an extra wellness treat or repairing the game.
Hadn't thought of the wellness treat, I think my pets became scared and uncomfortable before giving it to them. I think it started when the dog got sick and I took him to the vet. So it seems like everything that has to do with the vet makes the pets permanently traumatized? Kinda funny, but would be great if they'd fix it............. Like..... maybe before the DLC is a year old.........
EA StaffHi @gamlegrete
As Crin stated, we are aware of the wellness treat issue. But I have a question for you 🙂.
Are you sure this issue was not caused by the treat? Did your pets get a preventative shot at the vet before all this started?
Thank you very much for your report!
One of the dogs got sick and he got the "expensive" treatment from the vet, which was a shot. I think that's when it started, then the wellness treat just made it worse. But I only brought one dog to the vet and every pet in the household got scared. I even tried adopting a new cat to see what would happen and he also got uncomfortable and scared, without wellness treats or visits to the vet.
I think I'll start a new household with several pets without giving them the treats and taking them to the vet to see what happens. Then I can keep a look out if visits to the vet, preventative shots, or wellness treats triggers it.
