the sims 4 cats and dogs strays in other neighborhoods

You can always move the pets to a good family via managed worlds when you train them a little (or don't train them).This isn't in BB by the way. I take the traits off, the strays that she didn't have time to friend leave the area eventually. I put out food and make friends and adopt them. I decided to make a sim basically run a home based rescue center. It is like everything is way over done in Brindleton Bay and nothing at all was done anywhere else - did they honestly think we would not want pets in other worlds/towns? So then the other thing that bothers me is like the opposite - when my sims live in any other town - there are no strays at all and nothing is set up for pets in any other world - like my current cat has the prowler trait but lives in Willow Creek - there is nothing there for my cat to prowl so the trait is wasted! I feel so bad for it - it goes from bush to bush like it was programmed to do looking for something but nothing is there and the poor thing looks so confused! Couldn't they have at least put one of the interactive pet bushes from Brindleton Bay in the buy/build catalog so you could at least put them on the lot for the cat? And dogs in other worlds are even worse because the walk paths for them end up taking 4 sim hours for a short walk! The good thing about a pet in another town is that they very rarely get sick. Most of the time I do not want my sims to even live in Brindleton Bay because there are soooooo many sick animals around - even the ones that have owners! And you do want to help them all but other than the wellness treat - not much you can do without the lot trait and then your sims home is overrun. I was just about to post feedback about Cats & Dogs because it really was done badly. But imo, EA should change it and we shouldn't have to rely on a mod to make it better. I don't know, but this is not my idea of fun and I installed a mod for it this weekend.

Most of them are sick, stinky, hungry, tired or lonely. which family member makes the first introduction? Right, the dog! :)Ĭats can be more aloof, but I have two of them and if they want attention, they will do anything to get it.Īs far as the strays go, this is so unrealistic and very sad to see for any animal lover. There might be some exceptions, but often when I visit someone for the first time and they have a dog. IRL animals make contact with humans all the time, even if they aren't your own pet. Sims have to instigate the interactions most of the time. In the households with pets I've played there is hardly any interaction from cats or dogs toward sims. To me it feels like the pets are objects.

It really astonished me because I've never seen this happen in any sims game. Agree! I got the cats and dogs EP last week and only after playing a few times I started to notice this.
