The Skill Journal for pets is like that of normal Sims, with the exception of pets only having one skill.
== Statistics
=== Cat ===
After reaching level 3 in Hunting, a dog can be ordered by a Sim to "Sniff Out Collectible" or to find something specific (Gem, Metal or Rock). This is similar to pets hunting on their own, though pets sent out to hunt will try to present their finds to the Sims that sent them out. The dog can still fail if sent out this way, instead obtaining worthless junk or nothing at all. If a dog finds 3/3 pieces of a fragmented collectable, the object can be "assembled" for a unique object to decorate the Sim's home or sold for a decent amount of [[Simoleon]]s.▼
Dogs with a hunting skill of 4 or higher can be told to "fetch date" and will bring back an attractive member of the Sim's preferred gender.▼
After reaching level 5 in Hunting, dogs gain the ability to "Locate Collectible." This can be used to track the position of Gems, Metals, or Rocks. The tracked collectible becomes marked on the map (although you can zoom in and actually see them as well) until the dog completes it's next action. On the map, the markers are indistinct, only showing the category the tracked collectible belongs to but zooming in allows you to mouse over the item and find out specifically what it is. ▼
Beetles Caught, Birds Caught, Fish Caught, Lizards Caught, Rodents Caught, Snakes Caught, Turtles Caught, Common Critters Caught, Uncommon Critters Caught, Rare Critters Caught, Extraordinarily Unusual Critters Caught

=== Cat ===
After reaching level 3 in Hunting, a cat can be ordered by a Sim to "Go Catch Something" or to catch something specific (Rodent, Snake, Turtle, Beetle, Bird, Fish, or Lizard). Strangely the [[Hunting#Challenges|Challenge Rewards]] don't effect a cat's success rate if sent Hunting this way. Sometimes the cat can also just look around, decide there are none near by and give up. If the cat successfully catches what it was sent to find, it will try to present their catch to the Sims that sent them out.
After reaching level 5 in Hunting, cats gain the ability to "Locate Prey." This can be used to track the position of Rodents, Snakes, Turtles, Beetles, Birds, Fish, or Lizards. The tracked prey becomes marked on the map (although you can zoom in and actually see them as well) until the cat completes it's next action. On the map, the markers are indistinct, only showing the category the tracked prey belongs to but zooming in allows you to mouse over the prey and find out specifically what it is. 'Prey' currently being kept as a [[Minor pet]] is also tracked when this ability is used, even if it is in a terrarium in the house shared with the cat.
== Notes ==
There is currently a bug which can prevent a pet from ever obtaining the [[Hunter]] [[Pet_trait|Trait]] through 'training,' no matter how many times the pet is sent to hunt. This trait is still obtainable for the pet buy choosing it after using the 'Attitude Adjustment' [[Lifetime_reward#Pets|Lifetime Reward]] on the pet.
