Sims 2 pets won't breed

    @Tremayne4260 I finally knew why it wasn't working! It wasn't my custom content or anything it was because dogs/cats can't get pregnant when there is only 7 people or animals in a household. So, the female cat was pregnant and I tried over and over again to breed the two dogs and it wouldn't work but that is because the offspring that they can have is only 2 puppies I think. So, when the cats aged up into adults I gave one up for adoption then when I tried breeding the two dogs, it worked! I was so happy but so stupid at the same time because I still didn't know why it wasn't working but then I realised! Also, when the dog gave birth I decided to give my male kitten away that had just been born and keep the female. Before I did that though, I bred them together again but the female didn't get pregnant. I then gave up the male kitten for adoption and I tried breeding the two adult dogs again. It worked, so that's why it didn't work. I'm so sorry for wasting your time on thinking how to fix it!

@teddyswirl1 , are you using any mods? They could be causing interference preventing the pregnancy. If you are, try removing just the mods. Check the sites where you got the mods to see if there is a more recent version. 

Just trying to think of why this is happening.

    @teddyswirl1 , I'm so glad it finally worked for you. 🙂 And no question wastes my time. I'm happy to help any time and I'd rather people enjoy the games they love and have them running properly. 

    I'm here if you need anything else. Happy Simming!
