I liked Sims 3 Unleashed better? :P ♥Icyyy♥ 00:42, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

TS2 Pets and TS3 Pets Title
It's a little weird, because EA never used the same title for an expansion pack... And we've got our lives a little harder because we'll have to distinguish the Pets from The Sims 2 and the Pets from The Sims 3. Any suggestions? DanPin .:::. Talk 17:46, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Searching for P will take the user to The Sims 3: Pets, so we have a shortcut, like all TS3 titles. I guess if anyone is going to add to tne article, they check that the information is for the right game. 17:21, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Good idea. Or perhaps we could insert into the article an infobox saying that "This section only describes features existent in [EP name here]". DanPin .:::. Talk 20:29, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

The Sims 3: Pets and The Sims 3: Pets(Console)
I was thinking that this article needs to be split into two seperate articles. The Sims 2 Pets was split into two articles; The Sims 2 Pets and The Sims 2 Pets (Console). The same should be applied to The Sims 3: Pets. This way features of the PC/MAC version won't be mistaken for a feature on the PS3 version. It would also keep the article uncluttered and neat. To see the difference compare the PC/Mac and Console articles for The Sims 2: Pets The Black Scorpion 12:43, June 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree, but wait for a bit more feedback before you do it. -- WH   talk  06:29, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Others needs to give their thoughts on this soon before the page gets too cluthered with info for both versions. The Black Scorpion 16:58, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I support splitting it up right now. Patko0770 20:24, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

 * It should be done, but I don't think there's a need to do it right away. Dharden (talk) 21:16, June 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree, but only until both games are released or so. Nikel23 02:12, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps wait until we have more information abut the games, or closer to the release date. --W H  (talk) 07:32, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

New Job for Sims?
MAYBE sims can have an job as an breeder..
 * I doubt it. EA haven't announced any new jobs for Sims. 13:53, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Where can you get a cat/dog if you have an existing sim/family?
Will you get it from a pet store (hopefully not or EA doesn't know about pet mills) or a shelter? I saw a picture of a pet store but not sure if the pets can be adopted from a shelter. I know this is a silly question and this isn't even reality but this game sounds so exciting and basically want to know everything about it!
 * I know it's exciting, but we all have to wait to see, I don't really know the answer, but soon you'll know when you have the game ^^. -- Guilherme Guerreiro [[File:Thanks rose.png]]( talk here ) 16:47, June 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's quite likely that there will be a pet shop in my opinion. But hey, I know nothing! :P 20:34, June 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't be surprised if the pet store was added and became like the grocery sore/book store, and allowed sims to get part-time jobs. But this is all just speculation... --W H  (Talk) 06:52, June 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the replies everyone!
 * EA will only include a Pet store for the Pre-order edition of the PC game. Probably the rest of the players will just probably make a phone call, or such.
 * It's NOT a pet store. It's a shop where you can get unique items for your pets.The Black Scorpion 00:59, June 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh okay! Thanks The Black Scorpian! That was helpful :) I didn't see that in there website but it's actually true!
 * Oh okay! Thanks The Black Scorpian! That was helpful :) I didn't see that in there website but it's actually true!

If I made a pet I would make him Agile Brave Friendly Loyal Hyper ;D (Gotta love the hyper ones) btw the pet shop is nice I hope we can see the traits of pets we purchase, because I don't want to purchase a cat who is Lazy Destructive Stupid ;p and I also hope for a Pet Show!!!!
 * Haha, I made all my TS2 pets hyper, it's so funny when they run around like mad. --W H  (talk) 06:27, June 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * if this expansion pack is relased, i swear i will bring back my evil, mean, destructive cas bulldog pet back from ts2! :D Wir.wiryawan 05:18, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * if? what do you mean if it is released? Pets is coming out in late October or Early November.--The Black Scorpion 19:05, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think he meant "when"... who doesn't know it'll be relased soon anyway? ^^ Nikel23 02:34, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * soon? no. it's gonna go; town life stuff July, Medieval EP1 August and Pets late October/Early November.--The Black Scorpion 05:26, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * O.O I never really notice the date, but Boy, EA seems to be working 24/7 or maybe they just have too many workers! Nikel   (Talk to  me!)  12:35, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

I will buy this
yes I will RebeccaBlack 23:19, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

I so want this for PC.
This would be a great game on PC.

Can#t wait for it to come out.
 * I reckon the PC version will be better than the console. *shudders just thinking about it* 17:08, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

Pet traits to Pet page
I think that we should move all the traits of the pets to the Pet page, below the sims 3 section.

Cover
Again, The Sims 3 Pets doesn't show a new life state at the cover just like Generations despite Imaginary Friend presence... Why can't EA at least show the picture of new life state, just like Mummy in World Adventures, SimBot in Ambitions, and Vampire in Late Night?? They simply don't want to make a pattern, do they!? Just like its name, Pets. It's already used in The Sims 2 Pets! Nikel23 14:28, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps they are not adding a new one. -- Guilherme Guerreiro [[File:Thanks rose.png]]( talk here ) 14:34, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps... but in fact, they did add in Generations though it's not shown. Nikel23 14:45, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Then, it's a surprise, don't worry ;). -- Guilherme Guerreiro [[File:Thanks rose.png]]( talk here ) 14:46, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * according to Graham Nardone, this box art is not the real thing12. it's a concept box art. it should be removed. that and ONLY the english version should be added once it is released.--The Black Scorpion 15:45, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * The Black Scorpion- I think any countries we can get should be allowed to place their version on, it's not fair if they can't. And anyways, it'll be a surprise. If you count animals as a life state they have.24.13.90.14 20:04, June 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Petscover.jpg there is no news about new creature, on this cover unofficial cover the grim reaper pic on this cool dont you think? --Wir.wiryawan 13:52, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, indeed it is cool! XD Buuuuuuuuut... I prefer if EA stays with the pattern. First Mummy, then Simbot, after that Vampire, aaaand... no Imaginary friend shown! And this time as well... Nikel   (Talk to  me!)  14:01, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Because it's gonna be a surprise? either that or because the Grim Reaper plays a bigger part in Pets. In a recent tweet SimGuruGraham said that "there is going to be a very special creature in Pets". This leads me to believe that the werewolf will not return.--The Black Scorpion 14:42, July 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Why does it have to be a werewolf? Think about it I mean perhaps there will be unicornes (since there are horses in the game) or something else.....  Vss2eip talk here   19:25, July 24, 2011 (UTC)

New Traits
So I see there's only 1 new trait for the Sims, according to a source or so... Hopefully there'll be more. Why I said that? because previously, Generations was announced to add new traits, that are Rebellious and Nurturing. It turned out that both were the only new traits added! I thought those were just some! Nikel23 16:17, June 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * What? There are a lot of new traits, traits for pets that is. Pet traits are the only traits that have been revealed thus far, NOBODY knows what the new Sim traits are.The Black Scorpion 20:34, June 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I saw there's only one, Fur Allergy, and I'm afraid that's the only new trait for Sims... Nikel23 10:49, June 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just because that's the only Sim trait mentioned thus far, that doesn't mean that it's the only one. There's still a massive amount of info that we don't know yet.--The Black Scorpion 11:48, June 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * To be honest, I don't really mind if there's only one trait for Sims. There are already a massive variety of traits for pets, and that'll be enough fun for a long while! :). -- BobNewbie  ∞(Talk)∞  12:07, June 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I collect the image. See my picture? I also use it as my twitter background. :p Nikel23 12:15, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

 * There is a hidden trait on generation called Lazy. this trait do not have any icon and dont have any effect to sim. when i looking for information about this trait i found this:
 * <TraitList>
 * its look like this hidden trait is for pets expansion pack. why they put it in generations? Wir.wiryawan 16:29, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * They might have included it with Gen/the latest patch by accident. It'll most likely remain hidden until Pets is released. Either that or the Town Life Stuff patch will remove it.--The Black Scorpion 20:33, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Woah, that's so intriguing, Wir.wiryawan! Where and how did you find it? Nikel23 02:20, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * He most likely looked in the game code for the info on the trait. If you use Twallan's Master Controller you can see it listed with the hidden traits.--The Black Scorpion 03:38, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Release Date
The North American release date has been announced via the Sims 3 Facebook Page. The release date is October 25th. I added the date but it doesn't show it. Why is this?The Black Scorpion 16:11, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
