They are one of the most common pets that Sims can own, along with [[Dog\|dogs]]. In some games, such as the GBA Sims games, they are not something that Sims need or have to take care of much, aside from petting them and and cleaning up their messes. They are mostly for show. In the PC and ~~Console~~console versions, ~~like~~of ~~''[[The~~all ~~Sims:~~the ~~Unleashed]],''~~pets ~~''[[The~~related ~~Sims 2: Pets]]'' and [[The Sims 3: Pets]]~~expansions, they are one of the main parts of the game, in that they must be fed, given attention, played with, cleaned up after, and watched over. ==The Sims: Unleashed== [[File:The sims cats.jpg\|frame\|Some of the cats that can be selected in ''The Sims: Unleashed''.]] Cats were first introduced in ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]]''. A family can adopt a cat by going to the Pet Center in [[Old Town]], or a Sim can befriend and adopt a [[stray]]. The Create a Sim section of ''The Sims'' does not allow players to create pets. [[Skill (pet)#The Sims\|Skills]] for cats are obedience, tricks, and hunting. Cats may hunt [[cockroaches]], mice, and garden pests on their own. They can be told to hunt mice and garden pests, though they will not always do it. Cats were introduced in ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]].'' In ''The Sims'', a family can adopt a cat by going to the Pet Center in [[Old Town]], or a Sim can befriend and adopt a stray. The Create a Sim section of ''The Sims'' does not allow players to create pets. ~~[[File:The_sims_cats.jpg\|frame\|Some~~The ~~of the~~pre-made cats ~~that~~belonging ~~can~~to beplayable ~~selected~~households in ''The Sims: Unleashed'']] are: * [[Waggles Kat\|Waggles]], [[Boots Kat\|Boots]], [[Scout Kat\|Scout]] and [[Maggie Kat]] (owned by [[Ginia Kat]]) * [[Menelaus Goth\|Menelaus]] and [[Hecuba Goth]] (owned by [[Gunther Goth\|Gunther]] and [[Cornelia Goth]]) [[Skill (pet)#The Sims\|Skills]] for cats are obedience, tricks, and hunting.

The player can do this by scolding them if they don't want them to do something that is bad, e.g., destroying furniture, or by praising them to encourage a behavior. For example, cats can be trained to be filthy or clean, and cats may get up on tables to eat Sim food unless they have been trained to prefer pet food or to stay off furniture. After a cat becomes an adult, a Sim can stroke the cat, pick it up and hug it, or feed it a treat, although they can no longer be held and carried around. Sims can play with a full-grown cat by pulling out a cat teaser, tossing the cat in the air, or wiggling their fingers at it. The cat teaser and finger-wiggle games will continue until canceled by the player, or until the cat or Sim ends them through [[free will]]. Cats generally enjoy these things, but when playing the finger-wiggle game, a cat may eventually become annoyed and scratch the Sim, which will lower the relationship between the two. Cats may also occasionally pounce at Sims and scare them; the frequency of this interaction does not appear to be based on their personality or their trained behaviors. In ''The Sims 2: Pets'', cats also have to be [[Pet skills#Behaviors\|trained]] so they can live with Sims. The player can do this by scolding them if they don't want them to do something that is bad, e.g destroying furniture, or by praising them to continue doing it. Cats can be trained to be filthy or clean. Cats may get up on tables to eat Sim food that is on them, unless they have been trained to prefer pet food or to stay off furniture. Unlike their counterparts in ''Unleashed'', kittens in ''Pets'' are mobile and largely self-sufficient. They can feed themselves (provided there is food available), use a [[litter box]], and sleep on [[pet ~~beds~~bed]]s without the help of a Sim or their mother. ~~kittens~~Kittens can also learn [[~~Behaviors~~behaviors]]. However, they cannot go up or down stairs without the help of a Sim, and they cannot get jobs or learn [[~~Commands~~commands]]. If ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life\|Apartment Life]]'' is installed alongside ''Pets'', [[Witch]]es can have a [[Spectral cat\|Spectral Cat]] as their [[Familiar]]. The spectral cat will never age, has no gender and is unable to breed. It also doesn't have the bladder need, so litter boxes are unnecessary, although they can learn how to use the toilet. If one of its need bars ever gets too low, or if the summoning witch leaves the lot, it will vanish, but can be resummoned with the same spell with its needs full. ~~The premade cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims 2: Pets'' are:~~ The pre-made cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims 2: Pets'' are: * [[Mickey Kat\|Mickey]], [[Samantha Kat\|Samantha]] and [[Faline Kat]] (owned by [[Tara Kat]]) * [[Cheech Kim]] (owned by the [[Kim family (The Sims 2: Pets)\|Kim family]]) ==The Sims Pet Stories== Cats in ''[[The Sims Pet Stories]]'' are just like the ones in ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'', with no differences. They largely take a backseat role in this game. The pre-made cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims Pet Stories ''are: * [[Indie Thornton]] (owned by the [[Mustella household]]), of Garden Heights * [[Diva Loyal]] (owned by the [[Girard family (Mesa Flats)\|Girard family]] then moved in with [[Stephen Loyal]]), of Mesa Flats * [[Claws Kennedy]] (owned by the [[Kennedy family (Pet Stories)\|Kennedy family]]), of Mesa Flats * [[Shadow Rambler\|Shadow]] and [[Pooka Rambler]], of Mesa Flats  * [[Baldur Rosenfeld\|Baldur]] and [[Tootsie Rosenfeld\|Tootsie ]](owned by [[Zoey Rosenfeld]]), of Arbor Falls All three neighborhoods of Sims Pet Stories also feature a full predetermined list of both stray and adoptable premade cats and dogs, that differ for each neighborhood and do not match the Sims 2: Pets lineup. ==The Sims 3: Pets== [[File:~~TS3 Pets Cat CAS Xbox 360~~Black_cat.jpg\|thumb\|A black cat in ~~Create-A-Pet for~~ ''The Sims 3: Pets ~~(Console)~~''.]] Cats return in the fifth [[expansion pack]] for ''[[The Sims 3]]'', ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]''. Like Sims, cats have traits of their own. Initially, they are assigned three [[Trait (The Sims 3)\|traits]].<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MFJCgC6jnw ''Pets'' (console) Trailer]</ref> Unlike ''The Sims 2: Pets'', cats have only six needs: hunger, bladder, energy, social, fun, and scratch.<ref>[http://www.sims3cri.com/en/meeting-producers/969-presentazione-the-sims-3-animali-a-co-il-nostro-reportage.html?start=4 Cat's motive revealed]</ref> Unlike [[dog]]s and [[horse]]s, cats have no traits that are unique to them, but can develop traits over time. This means that even though a cat is not born or made with a certain trait, it may develop it over the course of its life. For example, a cat that plays with toys often can develop the playful trait, or a cat that grooms him/herself often might develop the neat trait. Cats are able to hunt for and bring home collectibles that a Sim can keep in terrariums or send off to the science facility. Cats with the [[hunter]] trait are especially adept at this, but all cats must first be trained, either by a Sim or by a pet toy. They will then develop hunting as a skill, which they can level up as they get better at it. The higher level hunter a cat is, the more likely it is that it will catch something other than leaves, feathers, or snake skin. A trailer for the console version of the game shows a cat banishing a ghost from the lot. Having any type of relationship with [[dog]]s and [[horse]]s is possible, except mating. You can control the cats (and dogs and horses) directly, making things easier. Cats are able to hunt for and bring home collectables that a Sim can keep in terrariums or send off to the science facility. A trailer for the console version of the game shows a cat banishing a ghost from the lot.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MFJCgC6jnw ''Pets'' (console) Trailer]</ref> Unlike ''The Sims 2: Pets'', cats have only six needs: Hunger, Bladder, Energy, Social, Fun, and Scratching <ref>[http://www.sims3cri.com/en/meeting-producers/969-presentazione-the-sims-3-animali-a-co-il-nostro-reportage.html?start=4 Cat's motive revealed]</ref> Cats can [[Breeding\|breed]] (but a pet house is needed) and will give birth to several kittens providing there are not to many sims in the household (if you have one sim you can have 6 cats). The kittens are adorable and although only limited actions are available they are quite enjoyable to watch. If you want a larger litter of cats, you can buy the [[lifetime reward]] "fertility treatment for cats". It takes about 4 days from conception till the kittens are born, you will know if your cat has become pregnant with the same sound as comes when sims get pregnant. For the first time in the series, cats can be given a bath by an older Sim but will require a high level of relationship. A lower relationship will result in the Sim being scratched. Cats can develop fleas which can spread to other pets and giving it a bath will help remove them.{{confirm}} ~~The City that comes with the Pets expansion pack, [[Appaloosa Plains]] , includes a [[Cat Jungle\|cat jungle]] where you can take your cat to play and meet other cats.~~ Cats can [[Breeding\|breed]] if a pet house is present, and will give birth to several kittens if there are not already more than 8 Sims in the household. In order to have a larger litter of kittens, Sims may buy the [[lifetime reward]] "Fertility Treatment for Cats." It takes about 2–4 days from conception till the kittens are born. Whenever a cat becomes pregnant, the same music that sounds for Sims will be played. Kittens are not able to do things that adult cats can, such as climbing stairs and playing with toys. ~~{{expand}}~~ The world that comes with ''Pets'', [[Appaloosa Plains]], includes a [[cat jungle]] where players can take their cat to play and meet other cats. ~~==Trivia==~~ If the ''[[Supernatural]]'' expansion pack is installed, a [[Witch#The Sims 3: Supernatural\|witch]] who owns a cat will receive the "Animal Familiar" moodlet, which boosts their spellcasting skill. There is over 30 [[Pet/List_of_The_Sims_3_Pets_breeds\|cat breeds]] on the console version of ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]'', and over 40 cat breeds on the PC/Mac. Cats have a large amount of lifetime rewards listed [[Lifetime reward\|here]] , but do not have a lifetime wish. The pre-made cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims 3: Pets'' are: You must have a sim in a household with animals. They can't live alone. [[Babycakes Loveland]] (Owned by [[Gracie Loveland]]) You can adjust the lifespan of the cats in the same way you adjust the sims lifespan. [[Maria Lionheart\|Maria]], [[Mothball Lionheart\|Mothball]], [[Muffin Lionheart\|Muffin]] & [[Pickles Lionheart]] (Owned by [[Hetty Lionheart]]) Cats may react negatively to the TV, but can howl along with music. [[Minette Bird]] (Owned by the [[Bird family]]) * [[Mozart Miller]] (Owned by the [[Miller family]]) * [[Oopsie-Daisy Marshall]] (Owned by the [[Marshall family]]) * [[Petunia Curley]] (Owned by the [[Curley family]]) ==The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs== [[File:TS4Cats and Dogs Render 2.png\|thumb\|A cat and a kitten in ''The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs''.]] Cats return as one of the two major pets in ''[[The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs]]''. Cats offer new gameplay interactions and features, but they are not directly controllable by the player. Using [[mod]]s reveals that cats' needs are bladder, hunger, energy, play, affection and bowel. Cats usually wander away from the home lot and go explore the neighborhood surrounding them. [[Brindleton Bay]] neighborhoods are also full of various piles of fish and bushes, that cats can investigate on their own. They are able to hunt down birds and bring back all sorts of feather collectibles that Sims can put on their walls to serve as decoration. Cats will also sometimes bring home mysterious boxes that Sims can open to gain pet toys. Cats with the [[prowler]] or [[free spirit]] traits are especially good at hunting and collecting. Cats who are exploring may sometimes get into a fight with a wild animal, giving them chances of becoming [[Pet illness\|sick]]. Cats, like dogs, have various forms of illnesses that they can get infected by. Sims can go to [[vet clinic]]s to get their pet cured, or if they have developed the [[veterinarian]] skill, cure the cat with their own methods. Cats are very mobile and can jump onto counters, tables, and even [[refrigerator]]s, if there is a counter next to it. Cats can't be bathed by Sims and will always clean themselves if they ever get dirty. Cats will use litter boxes on their own and will sometimes complain to Sims for them getting dirty, making the owner to clean the filthy litter. Cats can also develop various fears or interests towards objects. For example, cats can become interested towards [[toilet]]s and stare at them for long periods of time during the day, or they can develop a fear towards [[dishwasher]]s, making them scared every time the object is on. Cats will usually sleep on couches, cat condos, and on their owner's bed, if there is room. They can also ride [[robot vacuum]]s. Cats have a few unique [[Pet trait (The Sims 4)\|traits]], but others they share with dogs. For example, both cats and dogs can be [[friendly]], and the [[talkative]] trait in cats is equivalent to the [[vocal]] trait in dogs. Selecting a pre-made cat breed in Create a Pet will automatically add a suitable (but removable) trait or two. Cat traits affect how they perform, hunt and are interested towards Sims. [[Raccoon]]s exist as well and are present as a breed for cats. Raccoons have unique voices and can be created in Create a Pet. The default traits for raccoons are [[territorial]] and [[mischievous]]. Aside from their appearance and voices, however, they act and behave like normal cats. The pre-made cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs'' are: [[Doc]], [[Cleo (Brindleton Bay)\|Cleo]], [[Josie]], & [[Bartholomew A. Bittlebun, Jr.]] (Owned by [[Catarina Lynx]]) [[Bartholomew A. Bittlebun, Sr.]] (Owned by the [[Delgato family]]) ==Trivia== * There are over 30 [[List of pet breeds#The Sims 3 Era\|cat breeds]] on the console version of ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]'', and over 40 cat breeds on the PC/Mac. * The players must have a Sim in a household with animals; they cannot live alone. This is possible in the 3DS version of ''[[The Sims 3: Pets (console)\|The Sims 3: Pets]]''.{{confirm}} * The player can adjust the lifespan of the cats the same way they can adjust the Sims' lifespans. * Cats may react negatively to the TV but can sing along with music. * Cats can vomit on the floor, due to a furball in their throat, if they only groom themselves. Sims can brush them to avoid this. * Cats were able to be given a bath for the first and only time in ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]. ''This is possbile by having a high relationship with the Cat and can also be used to treat fleas.
