I decided to check out Cottage living since I haven't yet. I got a house, made a sim, and bought some animals. I tried to interact with the cow I bought, but my sim instead froze. I could pile on interactions in the interaction list but my sim wouldn't complete any of them. She stood still in the same spot. Moving around but not moving from that spot. I reset her, had her move around, and things were fine. When it came to interacting with the animals, she froze again. 

I played in another household but this problem didnt occur. The household didn't have any pets.

I tried in another household, with pets, and it worked perfectly fine aswell.

update: i fixed it by selling ALL my animals but it started again as soon as I bought chickens and hens! pls help
