I feel this is THE BEST Sims 2 Expansion Packs! I liked Nightlife, but I felt
the Sims 2 Pets has a lot more creativity. You can really achieve a lot in this game.
Not only can your pets get jobs to earn more income for you, you are also making a family very happy
when you create a pet. I love also being able to meet other animals in the neighborhood. You can adopt strays
once you become friendly with them. It's a cool game. A MUST for any animal lovers, and Sims/Sims 2 fan!

3.0 out of 5 stars Where's the Mac support, Aspyr?, April 6, 2007

Sims 2 Pets is an endearing expansion for the Sims franchise, but Mac users beware: although Aspyr has released a patch for the Windows platform to fix the game's many bugs, there is currently (4/6/07) no patch available for the Mac. Errors include taking a puppy or kitten to work if you're interacting with them when the carpool shows up, children floating when chatting with each other, and -- when your pets retire from a job -- your Sims are silently demoted in their career path.

Please release a Mac patch, Aspyr.

I own the PC sims 2 pets, and mac is exactly the same. I love dogs and cats, and in this game, Aspyr does a FANTASTIC job of graphics. In each sim household, there can be up to 6 dogs/cats or 10 sims and pets in a household together. There are many new objects and a new function: Create a Pet. In Create A Pet, you get to choose the breed of your dog or like building a sim, you can customize the tail, nose, eyes, ears, and body. You also get to choose markings like a white muzzle or spots or stripes. There are many different colors your dog and cat can be, and you also get to choose the personality of your pet.
To me, the best thing in the Sims Pets EP is puppies and kittens. They can breed! In each litter, there can be up to 4 puppies/kittens. It always varies from 1-4 babies. Like sim babies, you usually can't tell what they'll look like when older, but when they grow up, they'll be a cross between their two parents. I hope this helped- and for christmas this year, it is definitely worth putting on your wishlist.
