Having purposefully made Shit territorial, any human trying to interact with the cat was instantly hissed at and turned the other way. My cat and her owner/glorified slave took a trip over to Whiskerman’s Wharf to see what there was to do. In a way, it makes sense, but I was half expecting/hoping to be able to send my cat to cause havoc to the neighbourhood. It has to be said that this came as a bit of a surprise for me. They are fully interactable, but in the sense that a Sim can tell them what to do rather than you pick an action for them directly. Moving my cat and her owner straight into Brindleton Bay one thing immediately caught my attention, you cannot control your pets like you would do a normal Sim. Cavalier Cove has hiking trails for long dog walks and views on the Eastern seaboard, Deadgrass Isle may or may not have a haunted lighthouse but definitely features the largest population of stray animals, Whiskerman’s Wharf is the resident feline hotspot where they can be found scavenging for scraps of fish discarded at the docks, and Sable Square confirms this area has a love of pets by having a monument built right in the middle to celebrate all things four-legged. Boasting a rich maritime history, it is split into several suburbs. Brindleton Bay takes its’ inspiration from the US state of New England. This new expansion also brings yet another location, specifically catering for felines and canines. There are even unique designs, so your pet can look like a patchwork quilt, and many more unusual choices. You can even dress them up: if you are insistent on creating a cat, then there is an option to put a dog outfit on them so that they at least look like the superior animal. BOND WITH YOUR PETS Experience the companionship and fun that. CREATE CATS AND DOGS Use the powerful Create A Pet tool to express your creativity as you customize your Sims’ perfect cats, dogs, puppies, and kittens. You can choose to create a pets’ parents and then let science and genetics take over, or you can fine tune your four-legged friend to be exactly how you want them to be. Create a variety of cats and dogs, add them to your Sims’ homes to forever change their lives, and care for neighborhood pets as a veterinarian with The Sims 4 Cats & Dogs. That isn’t to say there isn’t a lot of customisation, far from it. This could be down to this being a lot watered down when creating pets as there aren’t as many different options to choose from, but it feels a lot more intuitive, and far less stressful. The Create-a-Sim introduction is also used for creating your animal companions and is a whole lot easier than creating a human counterpart. The Sims 4 Cats and Dogs Expansion Pack adds the long-awaited option to finally have a cat or a dog in your Sims household. And in an attempt to remain impartial in the eternal struggle between cats and dogs, we created Vincent the dog – previously seen in the Island Living review – and a cat.
So, in this next whistle-stop tour of Expansion packs for The Sims 4 is the Cats and Dogs expansion.
