Animals stuck/disappeared in inventory (Patch 1.108.318)

Currently experiencing this issue. I was adjusting walls and fences in build mode, and the animal shed went into household inventory, along with the cow that was in the shed. No matter what I try, I cannot remove the cow from household inventory. I have tried placing it down, placing it on/in a shed. I have tried assigning the cow to a shed, which shows its assigned and that the shed is "currently occupied by an animal" but the cow cannot be called out or interacted with, and still shows in my household inventory. The cow cannot be sold, cannot be moved, cannot be interacted with.

Why am I stuck with a cow in my household inventory that nothing can be done with? This seems to be a bug that has been around for quite some time. When can we expect a fix?

My cow is stuck in my HOUSEHOLD inventory! I cant place them on the lot using buy/build mode. When I assign them on the shed, they get greyed out and the shed is full BUT I can't interact with them! I cant call them out. They dont even come out. HELP

Same issue for me!
I didn't move lot, but I put the shed with my llama in the household inventory in build mode so that I could rearrange the layout of my barn area. I had issues with the animals getting "stuck" in their sheds, not eating even though the food storage was full etc, and I thought it might have something to do with me using moveObjects when placing the sheds originally, and that the areas of them overlapping might cause them to simply not work properly. 
So, in order to rearrange, I had to place one shed in my inventory before I could place it properly without any cheats.

But then my llama got stuck in the household inventory, and now I can't get it out... (I unfortually saved the game before I tried to put the llama back, so I couldn't just restart the game to fix it)

I've tried everything I could possibly think of... I've tried just placing it out, but even with the moveObjects on it refuses to be placed, only saying that it "can only be placed on certain objects", or something like that. (I'm Swedish, and my game's in Swedish, so I'm not entierly sure what the translations of those messages would be)
I've restarted the game, tried to repair it, and used testingCheats to debug the shed itself, but it does absolutely nothing, and you can't use the cheat in the actual build mode, so that's completely useless as far as it comes to clicking on the llama.
Not possible to sell or deleat it either, even if I sell the shed and buy a new one. There's an option to buy a new animal, even though it says that the shed is already occupied by an animal, but the new one gets stuck inside and doesn't come out when you call on it..

I have no idea what to do, and seeing that this issue is still there after this long is honestly so bad and incredibly disheartening...
I REALLY wanna keep playing this save, but if the llama will keep aging in the inventory and I'm gonna be constantly pestered by Grim because he can't get to the thing, I will probably loose it for real....

Add another to the list of cows stuck in household inventory.  It's like the sheds inventory of animals is somehow been redirected to the household inventory, but nothing actually comes out of the shed. It reminds me of the bug with the Discover University storage box getting such in inventory.

Also having similar issue. My first cow died, I bought a replacement, selected “assign animal to shed” and it didn’t work. Cow is now grayed out and unable to be selected again. Tried to purchase another cow to assign it, same thing happened. Now I have two cows stuck in inventory. Tried all the usual fixes and nothing is working. EA, please prioritize this and do better — this was a huge selling point of Cottage Living for a lot of people. 

It's been SIX months and this is still an issue EA!

I can't believe this wasn't fixed immediately as it's a core component to Cottage Living. My poor cows How-Now and MooLisa deserve better! 😭😡

I’ve encountered a similar bug. I play the game on PC, so I was able to resolve the issue by using a mod that adjusts the game to allow cows and llamas to be freely placed from the household inventory with the help of external tools. However, I understand that this solution is not applicable to console players.

To truly fix the problem, I believe the developers should either prevent cows and llamas from being placed into the household inventory when the shed is cleared, or allow them to be placed directly from the household inventory, similar to how chickens can be placed.

Just happened to me after giving healthy treats. Could this have to do with the aging of the animal? This is an infuriating bug along with all the others that don't get addressed. Yuck EA

This happened to me too - I exhibited the cow at the fair, and now she is stuck in the household inventory. Then I bought a llama, which went straight to household inventory. I replaced the shed. I deleted the shed. Nothing works. I can't delete the animals from household inventory. Sometimes their stats improve, sometimes they are bad, but the animals never die. I just ignore all messages that the animals want to come out; if the animals want to come out so much, they wouldn't stay stuck. Because of this bug, I don't want to enter animals into the fair again. What's more, this bug seems to have been known about since the release of Country Living, but still has not been fixed.

Playing on Ps5 this has happened to me. Stuck in household inventory and can't assign to shed.
