I have to be honest that pets are not a big part of my simming.
But I do like having the option of giving a sim a pet who I really feel would have one.
However, It's strays and other critters that have always been really annoying to me in past Sims games. I also didn't like TS3 story progression giving other sims pets that I didn't want them to have.
Also pets are notorious for breaking custom content and other mods.
It's the same for TS4 as I had to get rid of all my custom sofas and beds.
I gave the EP a test run on my old save because I don't want to corrupt Miss Peregrine and my other others sims.
There is something odd about these cat animations, like the bones and joints are a bit off.
Well, I guess they will do to switch things up a bit.
I will hand out a pet now and then.
But not if they are going to be doing that.
My mod that stops the ridiculous crazed grin on sims was the cause of this.
Strangely enough, I value this EP for the new world and new career more than the cats and dogs it brings.
I am starting to miss all these homes I built in Newcrest.
This is Melonie's and Ling's home, next door Sheldon's and Jewel's home pictured above.
Sheldon and Jewel came over for a visit.
The plan is for all my sims that are currently toddlers will grow up to go to University, move to San Myshuno apartments after Uni, and then settle down in Newcrest after they have advanced their careers and found a spouse.
As for cats and dogs,
who needs pets when you have toddlers? ;)
But darn it, I have a looooooong wait until we get University.
These tykes will not be aging past teens until I get that EP.
I think I might have something to do in the meanwhile thanks to Cats and Dogs.

A
The Truth About Cats & Dogs scenario may be a fun distraction and way to see how my Bachelor Challenge rules can be brought over from The Sims 3 to The Sims 4.
It won't be exactly like the movie, but I can have a love triangle going here using a bachelor challenge to pick the right girl for Brian. Abby will be a veterinarian instead of a radio personality. I have to give Noelle some thought though.
Yeah, as soon as I have all my sims in the game as toddlers and then play them up to teens, I might give this scenario a try.
We should have more game packs and stuff packs by then, so I might have more content to add to it.
