Sims 4 Pets Expansion Pack

This pack allows your pets to have a pet cat or dog, but is it worth it? It came out in 2017 and is one of the most bought packs so lets look into it and see if it’s worth the $40 USD asking price.

A boatload of things including a new world, Brindleton Bay, vet career, new lot traits, new create a sim and build mode items, a new aspiration, new traits, and of course cats and dogs.

Pets

Brindleton Bay: It’s gorgeous. A large and incredibly pretty world that you can live in and build your own vet clinic to run.

Career: Not a traditional career, to be a vet you simply buy a clinic and get right to treating all the cats and dogs who come in sick with various illnesses. Spay and neuter your pets and others. Manage employees and try to keep the place clean (NOT easy)You’re a vet, congrats. It’s similar to owning other businesses in TS4.

Create a Sim: The main thing I use from this pack is the hair, you get several styles for older sims (teen+) and one style for child aged boys and one for girls of the same age. No toddler hair but they do get a cute sweater and an outfit. Child aged sims get some new clothes, most of which is pretty nice and teen+ sims of both genders get a decent variety too. Mostly comfortable looking clothes and stuff with a cats/dogs theme fitting in with the pack, and of course, you can now create a cat, dog, raccoon, or fox as well as dress them. This is where I get a little angry with this pack, I can’t actually use create a pet as for some reason it causes my computer to completely crash and deletes my ENTIRE save file. This might just be my computer but this was the very first DLC I bought and on a new computer so space wasn’t an issue, no other DLC since has given me issue except this $40 pack I can’t use all of for some unknown reason. I’ll try to put this aside for the rest of the review and be far but this is a serious issue for me with the pack.

Build mode: I really love the build mode objects here and you get a surprising number of them, it’s a lot of content and it’s all really nice. Fish tanks and pet furniture, new sofas and love seats, rustic themed items (some of which look really good with laundry day stuff). The new windows are beautiful and the pet doors are cute. Hands down the best build mode item (with a pet) is the robot vacuum, you turn it on and it zips around cleaning your floors. I put at least two in every house or vet clinic. An added plus is that your cats look cute riding on them. Other build mode favorites include the new fireplace, sidings for exterior walls, corner couches, Brindleton Bay paintings, and small cat and dog statues. Even without playing with pets the build mode is enhanced by these new items.

Aspiration: Friend to the Animals, your sim loves pets and wants to be around them all the time. I don’t play much with pets but I appreciate any new aspirations added to the game since I tend to make the same couple sims over and over which gets boring so I’m glad they gave us this. It goes well with the new cat/dog person traits too.

Pets: I have to applaud the team at Maxis for the work on both cats and dogs. They act like they should, cats will jump on the counters and eat your dinner, dogs will run around and bark at nothing. The pets actually act like pets on top of being incredibly cute. I bred my small dogs and the puppy resulting was the slightly bigger than size of my grown sims hands. Too cute. You can pick from a variety of traits for you pets too in create a pet (3 traits like your sims) that effect their behavior but they develop quirks you don’t get to pick and you just randomly discover, like that your cat is afraid of the dishwasher and will fly like a bullet upstairs to get away from it once turned on.

The pets are cute and can be trained but my main two problems with them and why I don’t adopt them normally is this; 1. they make the grossest messes. Seriously, that vacuum I mentioned? You’ll need it. Hairballs, puddles, and other things you don’t want to step on are EVERYWHERE. Yuck. My Sims always seem to be miserable because the house needs to be condemned five minutes after cleaning it. 2. They’re kind of dumb. I love animals, don’t get me wrong but these pets are just annoyingly dense. They can be looking down at their food dish and starving to death but will do nothing about it. If your sim is busy and can’t go tell them to eat you’re pet might be whisked away because you didn’t feed it and you can’t control it to make sure it cared for, nor can you see its needs. I don’t necessarily need to control my pet or see it’s needs but if it has food in its dish I shouldn’t have to tell it it’s hungry. It’s almost impossible to care for a toddler and pet while also having job to pay for it.

Overall, I don’t completely regret buying this pack. I do use the CAS and build mod items but I never play with pets. They’re more a chore that stresses me out trying to keep them alive than anything, add that to the fact that I have to adopt preset pets as create a pet in CAS won’t work for me and the main selling point of the pact just doesn’t feel worth $40, which is sad because I paid that and didn’t wait to get it on sale like I always do, maybe $20 would have hurt less considering what I actually use.

Is it Worth it?: 3/5 If I could use everything I paid for? Maybe but I don’t like how hard and messy pet care can be here. If pets are a must for you then you might like this but I’d recommend waiting until it goes on sale and paying $20 or if you don’t want to wait, fork out a little extra ($10 USD) and build a bundle on Origin so you can get a game pack and stuff pack with it (actually I recommend you always do this with expansions as you essentially buy the EP and a stuff pack and get the game pack free). Just be sure you look into the stuff and game pack you want to get before you buy.
