How Do You Buy a Pet in Sims 4?

Pets are a great way to add some extra life and fun to your Sims 4 game. They can provide companionship, entertainment, and even help out around the house. If you're thinking about getting a pet for your Sim, here's how to do it:

How to Buy a Pet in Sims 4

1. Make sure you have the Cats & Dogs expansion pack installed. Pets are not available in the base game of Sims 4.

2. Once you have the expansion pack installed, open up the game and select a household to play.

3. Click on the phone and select "Adopt a Pet".

4. You can view list of house-trained shelter pets, adorable strays or expensive purebreds. Take your time exploring the unique pets and stunning breeds available at each location.

5. Fill out the adoption paperwork. Choose a name for your pet, select its gender, and decide what breed or type of pet you want.

6. Pay the adoption fee. The cost of adopting a pet varies depending on its size and breed.

7. Bring your new pet home! Once you've paid the adoption fee, your pet will be delivered to your Sim's house.

8. Care for your pet. Pets need to be fed, played with, and taken for walks. You also need to clean up after them and take them to the vet for regular checkups.

Tips for Buying a Pet in Sims 4

1. Consider your Sim's lifestyle before choosing a pet. Some pets are more high-maintenance than others. If you have a Sim who is always on the go, you might want to consider getting a low-maintenance pet, such as a cat or a fish.

2. Make sure you have enough space for your pet. Some pets need a lot of room to run and play. If you live in a small apartment, you might want to consider getting a smaller pet, such as a hamster or a gerbil.

3. Be prepared to spend money on your pet. Pets can be expensive to care for. You need to factor in the cost of food, water, toys, and vet care.
