That's great news it's working for the kitties. I did run into a small snag when I repealed one of the NAPs and voted in the Green Gardening Initiative. All my plants reverted back to their just planted stage, and kitty decided to start disappearing again. But after three days she was staying home. I replaced that gardening initiative with a different one because it really messes with my gardens, and it appears as if it impacts how the pets act. Tomorrow evening I am going into the save with the doggo and see what happens once I freeze her motives. I am also going to check and see which initiatives are in place in that neighborhood. The good news is I was able to correct the bad behaviors the cat had without her hissing at my Sim then disappearing several times a day. But even though things have settled down a lot from how things were before, I am still investigating to see if the NAPs are a bit at fault in all of this. I regret voting for the one that promotes art, though. The streets in my towns are littered with clay sculptures, and they are slow to go away once that initiative is repealed. Bunnies and Eifel Towers are everywhere my Sim goes. :/
