Sims who were vampires but are now Sims that aren’t vampires will now be able to sleep more than 3 hours when tired

Fixed in Patch 1.96.365/1.71

I can't tell if only vamps where the issue with this. There are of course also a lot of legit reasons and this thread has run it's course.

Please create a new one if you still have issues.

EditI'm having the same problem and it's at the point where my Sim won't stay asleep at all. I have everything except city living, fitness stuff, bowling night stuff, vintage glamour stuff and luxury party stuff. I have no mods or cc.

I just got back to playing the Sims when cats & dogs came out. I changed beds, repaired game and everything else I could think of. They can have full needs and it doesn't matter their pets appear to be fine. They just won't sleep. They are both Young Adults.

Edit: I went back in the save and my Sim, upon being woken up from I didn't know what at first, had a music thought bubble with an x through it and I found the dog barking right outside the locked door (apparently barking is music...?) and I clicked on the dog and it said "scold for waking up" and I did. I keep trying to send her to sleep but the cats keeping waking up but at least now I know it IS the pets because I get "lecture for waking up" from their meowing. I'm assuming after enough lecturing they'll learn to stop it? Hopefully....at least I know the problem now. The pets even wake her up through locked doors. Locked doors make no difference, which I suppose is realistic but man is this annoying in the game.So sorry. If someone is having the same issue see if a pet is barking or meowing and if clicking on them brings up "scold/lecture for waking up"

Would anyone be willing to share your save with me ?

If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox, mediafire, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.

  I have a new game where this has just started for me as well. I've just repaired my game and will see if it's fixed. If not, I'll get you the save file. I also tried replacing the bed, first, and no change. She has two dogs and two cats. I'll lock them out of the room and see if that has any effect.
  Edit: Repair didn't fix it nor did locking out the pets. I PM'd you a link to the save file. Hope I did it right.
  Second Edit: Just an FYI, I have a different game that I started when it came out (C&D) and I have no issue with their sleeping. I just checked it and it's fine. They have a house I built on the 20 x 20 lot in Cavalier Cove (near the beach). The other game is also a house I built in the same neighbourhood (different game) on the 64 x 64 lot. I started that game last night to it's after the most recent patch. My unaffected game was started shortly after the launch of C&D.

    Added this to inconclusive pets issues for now as it's unclear what's causing it.
    
    Need more info and saves would also be great.

  This is still a problem which has a random chance in the game to happen. Replacing beds and resetting the sims doesn't seem to resolve the issue, however going into Manage World does, so giving a save game file will not show the issue taking place.
  The issue I saw took place with 2 sims, one was in a double bed and the other was in a single bed. The sim in the double bed was sharing with another who was sleeping just fine. There was nothing to keep them from sleeping like no music or TV playing, no kids or pets, no wind chimes, all were adults. There was no moodlets to show they were disturbed by something. I had recently done a game repair before the issue too.
  This issue seems to be coupled with a world of other problems where sims cancel doing whatever it was they were told to do or being stuck in place and actions remaining on the screen when cancelled. I don't know if they're all related but I'll post them in a different post to be certain.
