'''Stinky Skunk''' is an [[Non-playable character|NPC]] introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]''. It will randomly appear on a [[residential lot]] and [[Sim]]s can either pet, watch, or chase it off the lot.
[[File:The Sims 2 Weasel and Skunk by Byakugan Eye.jpg|thumb|left|Sim being sprayed by skunk.]]
The skunk will usually leave if chased off, but may become annoyed and spray. The skunk may initially tolerate being watched by a Sim or followed by a pet, but will eventually become annoyed and spray. According to the Prima guide for ''Pets'', a [[werewolf]] has a better-than-even chance of being able to pet a skunk without being sprayed, but other Sims only have a 5 percent chance of not being sprayed.
The skunk will threaten before spraying, so a Sim or pet that is watching or following it may decide to move on, though that will not always keep them from being sprayed. [[Personality (pet)#The Sims 2: Pets|Genius]] pets and pets who have been sprayed before are more likely to recognize that the skunk is preparing to spray, as are Sims with high [[logic]]. When a Sim or pet is sprayed, his or her [[hygiene]] meter will drop to zero. The [[comfort]] and [[fun]] meters will also drop slightly, but it may pass unnoticed unless the player is looking at the meters.

==Trivia==
*Internally, Stinky Skunk is a male cat, as an inspection with SimPE concludes.
**The body of Stinky Skunk is technically an animated object aligned to a cat skeleton. As it is internally a cat, if the skin object cannot be shown by game (for example in a family picture or game icon, which is possible if Stinky is added to any household with the use of the [[Tombstone of Life and Death]]) it will appear as a black cat instead.
***Adding Stinky to a
▲***Adding Stinky to a familly and using the 'controlpets' cheat makes it so it can be ordered to do normal cat interactions with Sims and other pets, such as playing or being hugged, however, other pets and Sims can only perform skunk releated interactions towards it.
**Strangely, it is possible to attempt to "register" Stinky Skunk as a breed, but the game will not allow the player to progress past the "Name your new breed" screen.
*Sims may have a [[Wants and Fears|fear]] of getting sprayed, or that a pet they own or know will get sprayed.
*[[Servo#The Sims 2|Servos]] and [[PlantSim]]s can be sprayed with no ill effects (unless the Sim has a fear of being sprayed).
**However, they will sometimes emit a green cloud and wave towards the camera about needing a shower, but both effects will disappear after a while.
*The Stinky Skunk has the [[Romance]] [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)|Aspiration]] which can be proven through [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]], once he has spawned in-game. However,
*Skunks are also featured in ''[[The Sims Castaway Stories]]''.
*[[The Sims 2: Pets (console)|''The Sims 2: Pets'' for home consoles and PSP]] has a fur marking for cats that adds a skunk stripes pattern, allowing cats to appear similar to skunks, though this does not change their functionality.
*The [[The Sims 3: Pets#Videos|leaked trailer]] for ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]'' suggested that skunks would have returned in that [[expansion pack]]
▲*The Stinky Skunk has the [[Romance]] [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)|Aspiration]] which can be proven through [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]], once he has spawned in-game. However, he will appear to have the hidden [[Power (aspiration)|Power]] aspiration if he hasn't appeared in said [[neighborhood]].
