As in ''The Sims'', the only way Sims could have small pets in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' base game was to have an aquarium, the '''Aquabox Five-Gallon Aquarium'''. It must be stocked by clicking on it and selecting the "Restock" options. Sims must feed the fish and clean the tank regularly, or they will die. ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'' added another stylish fish tank, which works the same as the base game aquarium.

In order to have Sims keep them, the player must buy the appropriate cage in [[Buy mode]], then use the cage's "Restock" option to purchase the pet. This can only be done if the cage is empty and clean; womrats cost §75, while birds cost §400. The womrat cage is called the '''FMCU 3000''' (FMCU stands for "Fuzzy Mammal Containment Unit"), while the bird cage is the '''Tropico Avian Sanctuary'''. ''[[Apartment Life]]'', added the '''Modern Arf Indoor Dog Pen''', which allows Sims to keep a small dog in the pen; the pen costs §525, while the dogs cost §500.
 
{{Info|Note|Using the '''Modern Arf Indoor Dog Pen''' does not require the ''Pets'' expansion pack. The pen uses separate meshes, textures, and animations, all of which are included in ''Apartment Life''.}}

Bird cages can be opened. An open bird cage will eventually let the parrot out and it will fly around the house. Nearby Sims will think this is fun. Sims cannot interact with the parrot while it's flying, and it will not escape and cannot be caught by cats or dogs.

A womrat or bird can be set free, and a penned dog can be given up for adoption.
 
Small pets are the only pets that [[young adult]]s can keep on [[College (sub-neighborhood)|college]] lots, or that can be kept in vacation homes.
 
[[File:Snapshot releasebutterflies.jpg|thumb|right|Releasing butterflies]]Sims can also keep [[Bug catching|collected butterflies and fireflies]]{{Vgversion|TS2:S}} in a jar. If they are not released, they will eventually die and the jar will have to be cleaned. Neither the [[maid]] nor the [[butler]] will clean it, though.
