I left my mods folder as it was then did the whole repair thing on origin like you wrote.
Then I tried deleting the folder and repairing the game through origin like you wrote
@spiderrwoman In the directions it says to close your game, copy your mods folder to your desktop for future reference (leave it and it's contents there), then to delete the Mods folder and the localthumbnailcache.package file that is in the "The Sims 4' folder. Then do the game repair, then restart your game. You need to do all of those things and do them in that order for the process to work correctly. Do not re-add the Mods from the desktop. I'm not sure from your description if you deleted the Mods folder form your The Sims 4 folder also in that process?
Yeah that's what I did. When it didn't work I copied mods back over cause all my Sims were bald and naked.
Anyway I figured it out. I moved this family from one save to another and in the process changed them about including aging down the cat back to kitten. I aged the cat back up and managed to cure her
@spiderrwoman Awesome! Yes, sometimes something within the lot, the sim, an item, etc. can just get glitched, so rolling back to an old save, moving into a new save, or even occasionally just exiting the lot &/or the game can jar/reset the glitch/bug. Unfortunately there are may possibilities, which can make the troubleshooting take longer. Sorry to do all of the clarifying about how you did the process of repair... sometimes someone skips something that is key not realizing it. I appreciate your patience, and am so glad you tried the move tom to a new game save and that part worked. What a relief! :eahigh_file:
I had a dog that I could not cure once and I was so upset. I think the dog and my sim nearly died trying so hard. My sim was a vet. I finally had her take the dog to a different pet hospital and they cured it right away. I found out later that a vet cannot cure their own animal at their clinic. 🤨
I dont have any mods in my game or anything else would i be able to use this same idea just without the whole removing mods bit...it seems to be a issue with the game but i dont know how to do anything else that you listed..
