this is how my sim is picking up her cat......its annoying me so much and i can't click the cat and make it do things anymore
I have an ongoing game glitch where my Sims have distorted arms and hands when interacting with pets using the "hug" or "pamper on couch" interactions. It happens 100% of the time with these interactions and started about 3 updates ago. I have tried these interactions in different saved games with different Sims - it persists. I don't use any mods or CC in my game. I have also repaired the game but it did not fix the issue.
I have also been having a similar issue. I got Cats and Dogs just after New Years, and I got Parenthood and Laundry Day yesterday which is the day when I noticed the issue began. I've looked into older saves as you did and didn't have any luck either :/
I've got this exact problem on Xbox series S. When Sims hug pets. It looks exactly on mine as it does on Simrissie's photos. It's been going on randomly for many months. Sometimes with arms forwards and stretched out at strange angles. Sometimes their arms are behind their backs. With the pet in their arms or sometimes the pet doesn't move.
It's mostly with pets but it's happened with Sims a few times too. Say greeting loved ones. Surprised it's not been addressed yet but I could say that about numerous bugs at this point, reporting them is taking half as long as playing the game for me. Still, we love our Sims... wouldn't want a hug from one though!
This has been happening to me also for a long time. Dogs randomly become demons, it's so creepy, I'm surprised I haven't seen a topic about it before this.
But also this that petting them often just glitches. I don't have any mods, it happens very randomly and while petting both cats and dogs.
