From scampering pooches to cuddly kittens, now you can add a new furry friend to your Sims' lives. Choose from popular dog and cat breeds like Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Persians, and Siamese or customize their appearance and personality to create a unique pet for your Sim to raise as one of the family. Your Sims will enjoy teaching their pets tricks, taking them to the park, caring for them, and outitting them with new accessories. But keep one thing in mind—Sims' pets have minds of their own, so be sure to expect the unexpected!
