Re: [FIXED] [CD] Sims Can't Lecture/become companion for adopted Pets

I’m also having this issue. Strangely it’s with a cat I created in CAS before GF or the patch came out. Either way I just opened this family after about a month of not playing them and the cat is on the counter with no way to stop it.

    Hey there!

    Is someone still experiencing this issue after today's patch?

    Thanks!

    Yes, no improvement on this at all, which is a shame as I don't know if I can play with any pets until this gets sorted as it will annoy me

    Yes, ongoing for me as well. Not able to be a companion, encourage or discipline behavior as the "adopter" but additions to the household can.

    Just checked my sim household that adopted the dog and nothing has changed there regarding this issue.

    I still cannot lecture my pets. It is February 20. This is a long time to have this problem. Especially when my game just updated itself yesterday. I am very disappointed.

    I have the same problem - can't lecture my adopted pets. The sad thing is that this bug has been there for months now and still didn't get fixed ...

    None of my sims can lecture their pets. I’ve tried to make different households in different worlds, and I’ve tried to get the pets in different ways. Doesn’t matter what age the sims are, if I made the animal while making the family, if there’s a person from the neighborhood moving in, if the animals are adopted... just doesn’t work!

    I just purchased the Sims 4 + Cats&Dogs yesterday. I have no mods or anything. The first Sim I created in game I adopted the first three cats I found roaming around. I cannot lecture them. I maxed out the relationship bar with one cat and I cannot become his companion. I'm really frustrated because I can't complete her aspirations. Literally the first thing I try to do in the game is broken. Not very promising..
  • Just as a quick update I did try the workaround found in this thread, and it was successful at restoring the actions to the cats I removed and replaced from the household. However, I did lose my relationship status with them. The actions are also missing from subsequent cats that are adopted. Doing this workaround every time you adopt a pet is lame.
