Housebreaking: Difference between revisions

'''Housebreaking''' is a [[dog]] [[skill (pet)|skill]] that was added in ''[[The Sims: Unleashed]]'' and a [[Behaviors|behavior]] in ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]''. Much as in real life, a Sim housebreaks a Sim dog by scolding it for relieving itself indoors, and praising it for relieving itself outside.

Cats do not need to be housebroken and will automatically use a [[litter box]] provided that the litter box is kept clean and that they can get to it in time. In ''Unleashed'', cats cannot be housebroken. However, in ''The Sims 2: Pets'', cats will learn the "Housebroken" [[Behaviors|behavior]] if they are praised for using the litter box. While this is not necessary, players may wish to do it for verisimilitude. Also, cats can be trained to use a [[toilet]].
