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.
Started a new homeless rags-to-riches challenge today with a new sim, the twist being she'll become a Crazy Cat Lady. She adopted a stray on the first day (aka today) and since he had fleas, she bought a wellness treat to cure him, couldn't afford treatments yet. By the evening, aka maybe ...six hours after eating the treat, the constant being afraid of unnamed things all the time began. As usual, if you make the cat happy, the happy moodlet will cover it up for a bit, but then it returns.
I tried to do the usual cheat fix, aka sims.remove_all_buffs <sim_id>, but I guess that's now among the cheats that don't work anymore. Since that was the only fix for it, all I can now hope it'll actually go away at some point. I honestly thought the bug was already fixed, or I would have just let him stay sick until she could afford the treatment. ...or I might actually restart the challenge, feel too bad for the unhappy kitty.
All this just to say that yes, the bug still occurs, and that its usual cheat fix doesn't.
Later edit: the sim is new, freshly created, but the gamesave is very old. Also no guarantee on how old the stray is.
mods name is petanxiousbufffix or something like that. works with current version and is updated fairly regularly it looks like
Why is this still not fixed? It has been 8 months and it is a core feature of the game: treats for cats and dogs, which is not working.
I have this problem too, which has apparently gone unfixed for months. Definitely caused by the wellness treat; my dog has not been to the vet.
