Not dying of rodent disease?

I am doing a challenge to see how quickly sims can spread and die of rodent disease but nothing is happening. I have 8 sims and having them constantly play with the rodents (4 rodents in the house). They all get bit pretty often but it's been 6 sim days and no one is getting sick and dying.

Am I doing anything wrong?

  • yeah I think the cages have to be dirty as well as having a negative relationship with the critter itself.
  • how do you know if you have a negative relationship with them? There is no relationship bar

    they should be in the relationship panel somewhere


    nope, there is no relationship with any of the 4 rodents. Only their roommates.
  • @littlemissgogo nevermind. I was looking at relationship panel when the sim was not at home so it didn't appear. But it does show up when on home lot. Thanks!
  • The relationship doesn't matter. All that matters is dirty cage + bite.

    I stand corrected! I guess just keep those cages nasty and eventually one of those bites will do it.

    good to know! Thanks!
  • Get the dirty cage ... play with the rodent .. get bit. I had two dirty cages so had my sim get bit twice. The disease is by no means quick also. You'll get bit then it takes like a day to get symptoms and then goes through other phases. You have plenty of time to research a cure and buy it or go to the vet. I just bought the cure for my sim on the computer but he's still not contagious I don't think.. I know I could look it up but it's fun just watching. Lol I don't think he'll spread it well but I plan on having a club gathering and bring in all the victims.. hopefully he'll pass it on then take the cure and I'll see what happens to the locked in sims. Or I could send them home and switch households and see what happens. I want to keep my main sim alive.
  • Oh the vet tells you to order the cure from the computer ... sorry misinfo..
