Synopsis
Whether you're a cat lady at heart, an equestrian champion, a puppy parent or a poor petless soul who dreams about what it's like to have a furry friend of your own, you're about to get as close to the real thing as it gets — and so is your Sim. They have cars, jobs, romances and night lives — and now the Sims are about to get a whole new challenge — one that comes with four legs and a tail. What will happen to your Sim when he suddenly has a shoe-eating dog on his hands? Can he outsmart his super-intelligent cat? And can a canine with extra adorable puppy eyes even score your Sim a date with a hottie? One thing's for sure — life in the Sim world is about to get turned upside-down. In The Sims 3: Pets, you get to decide how your Sim's life will change when his new furry roommate moves in. You're in charge of picking out the perfect cat, dog or horse with the traits and personality to make your Sim's life complete. Create your animal with whatever personality you like, and then take control of your new four-legged friend and become the perfect companion or wreak havoc on your Sim's life. Learn to hunt, locate collectibles, race, jump and even fetch your Sim a date or two. Get ready, it's about to rain cats and dogs in The Sims 3.
