Pets are a great addition to any Sims 4 household, and there are several ways to get one. Whether you want a dog, a cat, or even a horse, this guide will show you how to do it.

How to Get a Pet in Sims 4

Adopt a Pet from the Shelter

The most common way to get a pet in Sims 4 is to adopt one from the animal shelter. To do this, simply go to the park and look for the "Adopt a Pet" sign. You will then be able to browse through a list of available pets and choose one to take home.

1. The cost of adopting a pet from the shelter varies depending on the type of pet and its age. Puppies and kittens are typically more expensive than adult pets.

2. You will need to create a home for your new pet before you can adopt it. This means building a pet bed, buying a food bowl and water bowl, and purchasing some toys.

3. Once you have everything you need, you can click on the "Adopt" button to finalize the adoption process.

Buy a Pet from a Breeder

If you want a specific breed of pet, you can purchase one from a breeder. To do this, simply go online and search for "Sims 4 pet breeders." You will then be able to browse through a list of available pets and choose one to buy.

1. The cost of buying a pet from a breeder varies depending on the breed of pet and its age. Rare and exotic breeds are typically more expensive than common breeds.

2. You will need to create a home for your new pet before you can buy it. This means building a pet bed, buying a food bowl and water bowl, and purchasing some toys.

Find a Stray Pet

Sometimes, you may be lucky enough to find a stray pet wandering around your neighborhood. If you do, you can click on it and select the "Adopt" option to take it home. Stray pets are typically free to adopt, but they may have some health problems that need to be treated.

1. Stray pets can be found in any neighborhood, but they are more common in parks and other public areas.

2. Stray pets are typically not house-trained, so you will need to teach them how to use the litter box or go outside to do their business.

3. Stray pets may also have health problems, such as fleas, ticks, or worms. You should take them to the vet for a checkup as soon as possible.
