Still hate the Cowplant.
Okay. I gave Cowplants another try. I was so down with this. I spent many hours building a 'Botanist Herbalist Lair'. I even bought the pack to develop an herbalist and hung out with the hermit and ga...

Good news for you is that sims always survive the first time and from what I've heard, they wont autonomously take the cake while they still have the moodlet (which would kill them).
Good to know. The guy who's the botanist (and feeds the plant) ... a day or two after he gets the job I get one of those 'choose this or that' notifications (hint.... never offer a Cowplant cake) and the result is a pop-up telling me he was eaten by the Cowplant then spit out (at work). :s What the heck?! But... in this case I never could see any change in his mood or needs while at work or when he got home. Does the plant at work count differently? Is that considered his first time being eaten to do you get a pass when it happens at work? Grrrr.... stupid Cowplants...
It takes two bites for an on-site cowplant to consume a sim for realsies. Once the sim has the "Drained" moodlet, the next time they'll be eaten is their last. If they get a "drained" moodlet from the pop-up scenario, then I'd have to commend the devs. More death! Whoo!
I like cowplants a lot, but they are a hassle to take care of. I have mad scientist basements full of them, along with a public lot with them all--But unfortunately, TS4 cowplants are a lot more docile than they look... To townies, of course. You'd have to starve the sim you're trying to kill and trick them into taking the cake twice to get anything done :/
