[[File:HundKatze.png|40px|left]] '''DogsCats''' are [[pet]]s that Sims can ownbe bought or sold in ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]]'', ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]],'' and ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]''. They are one of the more 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 to take care of much, aside from petting them and cleaning up their messes; they are mostly for show.
 
In the PC and Console versions, ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]],'' ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]],'' and [[The Sims 3: Pets]], 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==
 
DogsCats were introduced in ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]].''. In ''The Sims'', a family can adopt a dogcat by going to the Pet Center in [[Old Town]], or a Sim can befriend and adopt a stray. However, theThe Create a Sim section of ''The Sims'' does not allow players to create pets.
 
[[File:The_sims_cats.jpg|frame|Some of the cats that can be selected in ''The Sims: Unleashed'']]
[[Skill (pet)#The Sims|Skills]] for dogs are Obedience, Tricks, and Housebreaking. Dogs must be housebroken by praising them when they relieve themselves outside and/or scolding them when they do it inside. A dog may or may not try to drive [[El Bandito]] the raccoon off a lot, but will ignore the burglar.
 
[[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.
==The Sims 2: Pets==▼
[[File:The-sims-2-pets--20060822013004074_640w-1-.jpg|thumb|250px|Create-a-dog in The Sims 2]]
In ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'', dogs may be created in the [[Create a Pet]] section of [[Create a Sim]]. Sims can adopt dogs or puppies using the [[phone]], by buying them on community lots that sell pets, or by forming a friendship with a stray dog and adopting them. Players can also get a pet dog in ''[[Apartment Life]]'' by buying the pet cage in the pets section of buy mode, although these dogs are "decorative", and are considered as [[Pet (small)#The Sims 2|small pets]].
 
The premade cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims: Unleashed'' are:
In ''Pets,'' dogs come in two sizes: small and large. A dog's size affects how long its adult life stage will last. A small dog will live for 25 days as an adult, while a large dog will be an adult for 22 days.
 
*[[Waggles Kat|Waggles]], [[Boots Kat|Boots]], [[Scout Kat|Scout]] and [[Maggie Kat]] (owned by [[Ginia Kat]])
The wolves that are sometimes seen wandering the neighborhood, including the [[Pack leader|leader of the pack]] whose bite creates [[Werewolf|werewolves]], are a variation of large dog. Other than the pack leader, they can be adopted like other strays. Wolves can be bred with dogs.
 
*[[Menelaus Goth|Menelaus]] and [[Hecuba Goth]] (owned by [[Gunther Goth|Gunther]] and [[Cornelia Goth]])
Unlike their counterparts in ''Unleashed,'' puppies in ''Pets'' are mobile and largely self-sufficient. They can feed themselves, if there is food available, and sleep on pet beds without the help of a Sim or their mother. Puppies can also learn [[Behaviors]]. However, puppies (as well as kittens) cannot go up or down stairs without the help of a Sim and they cannot get jobs or learn [[Commands]]. Puppies are all the same size, regardless of what size they will be as adults.▼
 
▲==The Sims 2: Pets==
Dogs are also able to get their own careers. There are 3 pet careers: [[Show biz (pet career)|Show biz]], [[Security]], and [[Service (pet career)|Service]].
[[File:Sims2ppcscrncapcatfacewm.jpg|A cat in Create-a-Pet for ''The Sims 2: Pets''.|thumb]]
 
In ''The Sims 2: Pets'', cats also must 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 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.
Dogs have the same [[need]]s as human Sims, except they need to chew and they don't care about [[environment]].
 
▲Unlike their counterparts in ''Unleashed,'', puppieskittens in ''Pets'' are mobile and largely self-sufficient. They can feed themselves, if(provided there is food available,) and sleep on pet beds without the help of a Sim or their mother. PuppiesKittens can also learn [[Behaviors]]. However, puppies (as well as kittens)they cannot go up or down stairs without the help of a Sim and they cannot get jobs or learn [[Commands]]. Puppies are all the same size, regardless of what size they will be as adults.
==The Sims Pet Stories==
Dogs in [[The Sims Pet Stories|''The Sims Pet Stories'']] are just like the ones in [[The Sims 2: Pets|''The Sims 2: Pets'']], only now dogs can use story reward objects (such as a-frames, tunnels...) to work on for the pet show and doing that earning skills.
 
The premade cats belonging to playable households in ''The Sims 2: Pets'' are:
==The Sims Castaway Stories==
 
{{Main|Hyena}}
* [[Mickey Kat|Mickey]], [[Samantha Kat|Samantha]] and [[Faline Kat]] (owned by [[Tara Kat]])
Dogs in The Sims Castaway Stories are actually [[Hyena]]s. Their appearance has changed, though all of the options from ''The Sims 2: Pets'' are still available (e.g., Stroke, Razzle, Feed treat, etc.).
* [[Cheech Kim]] (owned by the [[Kim family (The Sims 2)|Kim family]])
 
==The Sims 3: Pets==
[[File:TS3 Pets Cat CAS Xbox 360.jpg|thumb|A cat in Create-A-Pet for ''The Sims 3: Pets (Console)'']]
Dogs are featured in ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]'' along with [[cat]]s and [[horse]]s, and appear to be largely similar to those found in ''The Sims 2.'' They are controllable and have their own traits and wishes. Dogs are able to form any type of relationship with cats and horses, except mating.
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 [[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 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>
 
Unlike [[dog]]s and [[horse]]s, cats have no traits that are unique to them.
The dog [[needs]] consist of Hunger, Energy, Fun, Social, Bladder, and Destruction.<ref>http://www.sims3cri.com/en/meeting-producers/969-presentazione-the-sims-3-animali-a-co-il-nostro-reportage.html?start=4</ref> When their Destruction need is too low, they must use the Chew interaction on an inanimate object, which can range from a toy to a statue. They can also use the Guard interaction on a wide variety of objects, from food bowls and toys to the entire house. They can get a job in ''[[The Sims 3 Pets (console)|The Sims 3 Pets for console]]'', but not in [[The Sims 3: Pets|PC]] version.
 
Cats are able to hunt for and bring home collectables 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. 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.
 
Cats, like dogs, can develop traits. 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 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 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.
 
The neighborhood that comes with the Pets expansion pack, [[Appaloosa Plains]], includes a [[Cat Jungle|cat jungle]] where players can take their cat to play and meet other cats.

==Trivia==
 
*There are 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.
*The hyena skin from ''The Sims Castaway Stories'' can be imported to ''The Sims 2'' (if the ''Pets'' expansion is installed) or ''The Sims Pet Stories.'' Copy the hyena skin from the PetBreeds folder for ''The Sims Castaway Stories'' and paste it into the PetBreeds folder for ''The Sims 2'' or ''The Sims Pet Stories.'' In all three games, the PetBreeds folder is located under the <code>(My) Documents\EA Games\(name of game)</code> folder.
*Cats have a large amount of lifetime rewards listed [[Lifetime reward|here]] , but do not have a lifetime wish.
*When a dog dies in ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'', they will enjoy a last game of fetch with the [[Grim Reaper]].
*You must have a Sim in a household with animals; they cannot live alone.
*You can adjust the lifespan of the cats the same way you can adjust the Sims' lifespans.
*Cats may react negatively to the TV but can howl along with music.
*Cats can vomit on the floor without explanation.
