I have exactly this issue! I got a message that my dog was starving. However there was food. Then right on time the dog went to eat by itself. I have a household with two small dogs, but only one of the two waits until they're almost starving to go eat. Unless the other one does it too and I just haven't noticed...
- crinrict4 years agoHero+@EwoDarkWolf Merging this with the existing bug report then.
I've got this now too on Xbox series S since the last update September 2021. I've got a cat and dog, both rescues, fed each morning by the sim calling them to bowls. The cat often won't finish her food and has to be told again. In the middle of the night the pets both become starving even with automated bowls full of food set on 3 hour refills. Today I got an exclamation point pop up on the dog's picture and a message saying "your pet needs you" then a notification she might be taken away.
The dog's mood drops really rapidly and every 2 days she tries to run away, but the gate is locked to prevent her getting out. The cat gets moody and starving too but they have food, treats, attention. There are issues with them unable to go potty too without being told and having indoor accidents but I'm looking for another open thread on that.
I'm switching Sims after this mess to see if it continues with a new household.
- siirysiir4 years agoSeasoned Ace@simsplayer818 I don't think cats are supposed to eat a whole bowl full of food every time. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this is what I'm seeing in my game. Only Glutton cats will eat the whole bowl empty. Cats are small animals so it doesn't make sense that they would always eat everything in one go.
- @siirysiir Hey there, actually I'm not sure if Sims cats are meant to clean the bowl or not...my real life cat certainly doesn't! My cats in the Sims though, they won't eat at all until told to, not one bite. They starve and complain until led to the bowl. I've had some that were fed in the morning by the Sim, but then by say 4am I got a warning message to feed them even though food was in front of them to get themselves.
