@simsplayer818 Completely agree! the pack is a little bit mundane when it comes to the actual content. I also had the same idea with my politician sims, but then I sadly got a bit bored with the world, although it is cute with the english/european vibes. Cottage,Medieval,Gothic,Georgian are my favourite kinds of architecture. So therefore I love Vampires/Cottage Living/Get Together. In those packs I loved the worlds, build items, CAS and gameplay. and as for my favourite stuff pack, it has got to be vintage glamour! I am always tempted to dress all my female sims up in the pencil skirt from that pack, my absolute favourite wardrobe item! Lol. I would love it if there was more items like that in CAS. 😊 Back on the politician subject, in the end temptation got to me and I moved my top politician back to Brindleton Bay. 😂 Side note, I don't have every pack, but what is your favourite so far. I think mine might be seasons. but there is others that I like as well. (●'◡'●)
I love Eco Living too, which surprised me as I didn't expect to like it so much. Snowy Escape is a great one too, the world is stunning.
I think City Living is essential, even if I'm not playing the city lots. It brings so much, the festivals and the food stalls. I put those stalls everywhere in my other worlds too. I'm a snowglobe collector IRL so the snowglobe collection in City Living is one of my favourites. I add them to most of my retail lots. Which brings me to my other essential pack, Get to Work. Wouldn't be without my retail lots!
I love Seasons and it blends well with Cats and Dogs I think. It just fits with Brindleton Bay.

@simsplayer818 I know! I also have different favourite packs depending on what mood I'm in. 😊 I agree with you about the poor strays in Cats and Dogs. Especially when the cats or dogs are sick and strays, it's really sad. I always get annoyed that in Cats and Dogs you can't treat strays at the vet clinic without adopting the pet. For the amount of strays in the game I can't adopt like 15 dogs and cats in one household. 🤣 I feel they should of added a feature where if you befriend a stray dog or cat, it gives your sim the option to take the animal to a rescue shelter. Then maybe a couple days in game time, you could see a random household with the dog or cat. I always thought that would've been a nice addition. I also would've loved horses! I missed that compared to TS3. ❤(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)❤

I agree about the pets add on! It's a lot of fun, but the animals in need are so hard to ignore, and then pets take over the game.
I have 6 pets in five households, and 5 of them were strays. I always want to befriend and adopt, but I know when I do, my sim's life is pretty much over. My current archeologist sim adopted a dog called Cutie, an aggressive, energetic, stubborn dog, small breed (they poop three times a day) and now the dog owns him. I had him take a vacation to Granite Falls, and all he did was walk the dog and try to keep it from biting passing sims. I finally had a friend agree to keep the dog for a while (that's what I'm trying to rp it as, but I had to transfer between households), so he could devote some time to grinding treasure. Of course, as soon he goes back to the jungle, he meets another sad, hungry, smelly pupper, so... now he has two dogs.
In another family, I tried to take the family cat along on vacation to Mt K, and the cat got so sad. I first I thought it would be fine, the cat slept a lot, which was surprising, because on the home lot it needed a lot of attention. Then one day my sims came back from skiing, and the poor cat's litter box was full, its food had gone bad, and it had thrown up, and it could not be cheered up, no matter what my sims did (a couple of days might have passed, I had aging off, and my sims all had aspiration reward traits that reduce needs). I had a look at the cat close up, and its eyes were teary. I didn't want to end the vacation early, but I couldn't stand it. So I decided the sim who was enjoying himself the least should stay home with the cat, and the other three would go back to Mt. K.
Then, one of my vacationing sims had to run home quickly for something, and the cat ran at them meowing like it thought my sim had died. It was sick, so my sim had to take a break from the vacation to take the cat to the vet. This happened twice.
Other than the strays, though, I love the add on. I even love the way I end up not using my play time as planned.

@Crayola4321 I love that your sims sound as chaotic as their pets! Lol. 😂 I agree with everything you said about pets. They make you feel guilty so easily. In my game the dogs always seem to want to be walked every hour 😂 Suffice to say in real life, I can vouch that's quite true as a dog owner. Now your archeologist sim can give his friend another pup to babysit. 😂 However him explaining the scenario of how he ended up with another pooch would be a long story. Thank you for sharing your experience on pets it's so accurate. (●ˇ∀ˇ●)
