more...designer mixes, but they'll also be able to personally design their new friend with the Create-a-Pet feature. The ability to customise gives fans the opportunity to create their ideal pet by choosing their body shape, unique markings, even their pet's personalities! With so many different animals to choose from, there's no telling what unpredictable experiences could occur! Players will also be able to teach their pet new tricks, take them for a romp in the park, outfit them with new pet accessories and even give them a job! As in real life, your Sims' pet will require care and training. A neglected cat with an urge to scratch might claw up your new couch if you aren't careful, and leaving your dog unattended near a freshly planted flower bed probably isn't wise! Features: Sims Have New Friends - Pets! Sims can share their lives with their new pets and add more fun to the Sims experience. From dogs, cats, caged animals and more, your Sims share new friends to experience life's precious moments. With so many different animals to choose from, there's no telling what unpredictable experiences could occur! Create-A-Pet - Choose from dozens of dog and cat breeds or customize features for a one-of-a-kind pet. You can even modify your pet's body shape by choosing from specific colours and unique markings. Don't like the way they act? Change their personality - from smart and sweet to silly and sloppy - anyone can create their ideal animal friend in The Sims 2 Pets. "Sit, Spike, Sit" - Your Sims can encourage and discipline pets, training them to shake, roll over, play dead, and more. Unruly pets might dig in the yard, claw the sofa, or topple the trash. Thankfully, a little training can go a long way. Classic Sims Open-Ended Gameplay - Create and control digital characters over a lifetime, setting their goals in life from popularity and romance, to fortune and family- their stories are in your hands. Share unique Pet unlocks - Use special codes to share unlockable pet accessories, fur types or markings with other The Sims 2 Pets players. Stroll the Central Town Park - Take your Sims and their pet for a romp at any of the nearby park areas, or head to the Central Town Park which is a favorite of pet owners. While there, watch your pet play well with others while your Sim can meet others and socialise with fellow animal lovers. Shop 'til you drop - Visit the adjoining Town Center, a great gathering spot for Sims that evolves over time. Once you've seen the latest styles and decided on a purchase, deck your pet out in the latest clothing and accessories around. From geek to chic and cool to casual, your Sim can customise their pet's look with one stop in the Town Center. It's sure to be the coolest pet in town! Requires The Sims 2 to run

The Ultimate Game for Chicks!
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by Wee_lis27

Advantages: Hours of fun! So much to do!
Disadvantages: Time passes quickly, animals and sims eventually die.

...like this?!~~~ Trust me, this is the perfect present for a girl or boy aged 7-16 (I am almost 18, but perhaps I'm just one of the special few older ones). Girls do seem to like this game more as it slightly resembles being able to play 'house' or 'dolls' as you make your own families and houses and live out the lives of the sims. On the game it says that it is for over 12 year olds. My little brother who has just turned 8 plays this occasionally. ... Read review

Werewolves and Womrats
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by Essexgirl2006

Advantages: Adds pets to your Sim families
Disadvantages: If you don't want pets it won't do a lot for you

This is the fourth expansion pack in the Sims 2 series following on from University, Nightlife and Open for Business. Lately EA and Maxis, the manufacturers and distributors have also produced 'Stuff Packs' with added clothing, furniture and furnishing accessories. The Sims 2 game is required to play. Before I continue, however, I am going to mention a little but about The Sims 2 for those who are not familiar with it. If you are familiar, feel free ... Read review

A Sim's Best Friend
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by amyprincess

Advantages: Good idea, lots of new added stuff
Disadvantages: couldn't breed, wasn't fussed with pets

My latest addition to the Sims 2 game is the Pets expansion pack. I have a few expansion packs already, reviews will be written, and I am extremely pleased with them. I was excited about getting the Pets expansion but not overly fussed like the other expansions. It didn't seem a necessity. ***The Expansion*** This expasion pack allows your Sims to add pets to their family. There is no limit to the amount of pets that you have and you can send ...

Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by gdaisyp

Advantages: dogs and cats
Disadvantages: didn't actually add much to the game

OVERVIEW *********** The Sims 2 Pets is the 4th expansion pack for the game The Sims 2. This pack adds, believe it or not pets! It also adds new places to go, new objects and new clothes.

By Far The Best Expansion
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by hi_nicola

Advantages: Adorable cats and dogs, lots of interactions
Disadvantages: Not many other pets

...my favourite expansion pack for the game. None of the other expansion packs have really appealed to me so far (though I have bought or played all of them at some point), but Pets is the only one that I feel really adds a lot to the game. It's quite obvious from the title exactly what Pets brings to the world of the Sims - pets! Your Sims now have the chance to own dogs and cats. They can also own tropical fish, parrots and a strange creature called ... Read review

Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by dramaprincess

Advantages: Your sims don't have to be lonely anymore
Disadvantages: Requires The Sims 2

...to love throughout a lifetime. The best part when creating a pet is that you can choose everything from their breed to their personality. Your sim can teach their pets tricks, take them to the park, buy them toys and more. The pets aren't like sims though, they have minds of their own - so expect the unexpected. Oh I do get excited about the new objects that come with the expansion packs. One of the new objects is a scratching post (well I personally ... Read review

The glorious addition of pets into the sims world!
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by xxconnorxx

Advantages: You can get pets in the sims 2!
Disadvantages: Not many objects.

...been anticipateing for some while the only reason EA (maxis) made this was purely based on the demands from the general public. But is it that good? The game sells for an RRP of £19.99, bu i got my copy from play.com for 17.99. Amazon are also selling this, for 16.99. If you pre ordered it from one of these sights you got a code for a special additon to the game for example; a purle pug, a star dalmation, a bandit cat. ***************** THE ... Read review

Precious Pets Added
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by amylou2107

Advantages: Send pets to work, breed pets, just have a pet
Disadvantages: Not a lot else they're needed for

...it looked amazing. Like all the others new things are added such as pets accessories, pet beds, pet bowls, pet toys and pet shops. The pets don't need a lot of looking after. You need to make sure you train them, this is easy to do but can take some time, and make sure they're fed. You can even get them jobs but they don't have as many job levels as Sims so it's pretty easy to get them to the top. Every job needs a certain skill which you have ... Read review

Pets Paradise
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by vericheri

Advantages: All the new objects, features and of course; ability to get pets.
Disadvantages: If you have a lot of e.p already, slows sims down a bit more.

On the sims 2 pets expansion pack you can give your sim a friend to love! With the new feature on C.A.S. of making a pet, you chose between a cat or a dog, elder or normal, male or female and with dogs; small or big. You can then either pick a breed or design your own breed with special markings and colours and also shape of body, you can then save the breed when you are done.

The Best Sims 2 Game
Review of The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack (PC) by stuart_wright1

Advantages: You Can Now Have Pets
Disadvantages: You Need An Even Faster Computer To Run It

...including very much material in the expansion pack and getting people to pay £20 for an extra 50 items. However in this game they add a whole new cat and dog creator. They also include items for the animals including kennels and scratching posts. The actual simulation itself is very good as you can teach the dogs tricks and teach them right from wrong. I absolutely love these new features and would not be without them now I have them. As ... Read review

Disadvantages: loading time

...have their own pet too! The main two pets are cats and dogs which are the most responsible animals to look after in this game. In this game, now while making your family you can also make a cat or dog according to your style or pick all ready existing breeds. When you have created your family and moved in your new home, you pet will not be controlled by you but with your sims you can tell them off for chewing up the furniture, sleeping on a bed, ...
