Pets feedback: Unplayed pets' health

Hey team,

I feel it would make great sense if unplayed pets did not show up dirty and sick everywhere.

For instance, last time my Sims went to the Planet Honey Pop! karaoke bar, one of the Delgatos showed up with their dog Blue who was stinky, while one of the Heckings showed up with Rosie who was fleabitten.

It would appear that unplayed families with pets are not very attentive to the needs and well-being of their furry friends and it's breaking the immersion somewhat. At least for me :/

    @CK213 Thank you. You've caught the very essence of my meaning.
  • Or, they could easily just up the probability of pet sickness if there is a played Vet in the world, vs. not.
  • I know they are not real pets but it is hard to experience. I no longer use Brindleton
    Bay because of this.

    It really bothers me, too! The household I play owns a vet clinic, and I thought I could curb the amount of sick pets running around by having it, but nope! If anything it's made the problem worse! I just can't stand seeing all these poor animals being neglected.


    Going to a vet clinic usually is the catalyst in causing all these sick pets to start generating...
