@Lirranlus You can't control the pets, it's by design. Your Sim only can interact with them. They can autonomously reach to your Sim when they feel bad about something (need to eat, feeling sick...) but the rest of the time they are free to do what they want.
@GiardiniDiMarzo yeah I know 🙂 my problem is that my sim can't interact with the cats at all. If I try to call for them or pet them nothing happens, the action just gets cancelled and my sim does the same animation when it can't reach something or something is in the way.
- @Lirranlus Oh my bad, I read that wrong. So, have you tried to test the game without mods? Move the Mods folder to the Desktop, delete the localthumbcache.package file from the main The Sims 4 folder, and then repair the game from Origin. Restart the game and see if the cat interactions work.
If they do, then it's definitely a conflicting mod, so all you have to do is find out which one is not working or needs to be updated.- @GiardiniDiMarzo no problem! I will definitely try that! I have used some mods and cc in that household, will it be a problem if I remove the mods and try to start the game like you said?
Removing mods temporarily (because you move them to the desktop) does not erase saves, but it's better if you do a backup of them before testing without mods. Clearly if for example you have cc hair installed on those certain sims, you will see them bald.
So proceed as I said above, once restarted the game load that save (you will get the message that some items are gone, but it is normal, since you have removed the mods) and as first thing try to interact with the cats and see what happens (don't save, or if you want to, it's better to create a new save). At that point, if without mods the interaction with the cats worked, you have a tedious task ahead of you, which is to find out which mod conflicts.Here's a link with the current broken/updated mods
