===Animals in [[The Sims]]===
===[[The Sims]]===
Apart from pets that you can buy, there are other, wilder, animals that appear in The Sims. The first wild animal (as long as you don't count the cockroach) was [[Claire the Bear]], a grizzly bear who was introduced in The Sims [[Hot Date]]. She occasionally wanders onto your lot, and although she means no harm, she often roots around in your trashcan, waking up all the Sims in your house. If the wooden bear statue is outside your house when she appears, she will wave at it; if you put a bear skin rug out, poor Claire will start crying.

Raccoons can also appear, but they aren't as troublesome. Like Claire the bear, raccoons like to paw around in your trashcan, waking your Sims in the dead of night. If you have a dog, though, it can chase the raccoon away before your Sims awaken. The skunk is another visitor, and although he doesn't wake up your Sims, he can spray them if they go to pet it, which will put their Hygiene down to zero. Your pets can get sprayed as well if they go to investigate it. The skunk will leave after a few days, but if you're in a hurry, you can phone Animal Control and they will humanely remove the skunk from your property for §30.

*Flies and Cockroaches are pests. Flies signify rotten food and although harmless by themselves can swarm in great numbers and kill Sims with [[Death|Death by flies]]. Cockroaches only appear if there is a great mess in the vicinity. Sims will [[autonomous reactions|autonomously]] try to squash cockroaches, earning a bad [[memory]] and triggering the cockroach [[fears|fear]]. Sims can spray cockroaches to get rid of them, but the best thing to do is to call the [[NPCs|exterminator]].

*In [[Pets]] you can also buy Womrats (guinea pigs), Parrots, and Fish. They do not show up as a member of the family like dogs or cats however and have very limited customization.

*[[Skunk|Skunks]] can also be found in Pets. They can be petted, watched or shooed, although the skunk will spray your sims if you try the first two. It may also spray your pets.

*In [[Seasons]], a [[Penguin]] sometimes appears on the lot, particularly in Winter, or if you have a fish on the lot. A sim can either 'Pet' or 'Shoo' a penguin, but the penguin will do other things on the lot, such as slide in the snow, eat fish on the ground and talk to snowmen.

*Also in seasons, you have the ability to catch Butterflies in the daytime and Fireflies at night. The only reactions with them possible are 'Catch Butterflies' and 'Release' when caught.

*In Freetime, part of the [[Nature|Nature Hobby]] allows you to catch a variety of species of bugs under the categories of Spiders, Beetles and Butterflies. Bugs caught can be viewed in the sims' bug collection. Sometimes when catching bugs, Bees may chase after your sim.
