Wolf

A white-furred wolf

Wolves are a type of animal NPC that appears in The Sims 2: Pets. Wolves look like a breed of large dog, and have unique fur, but the differences are slight enough that some players identify wolves as large dogs[1]. Wolves have 2 kinds of coats; one is entirely black, while the other is white with a gray back. Wolves sometimes appear as strays, and can be interacted with like other strays. Knowledge Sims will often have wants to see a wolf.[2] A werewolf has the ability to summon wolves.

Wolves can be adopted, similarly to stray dogs and cats. However, they are much more difficult to befriend. They require a higher relationship to be adopted, develop Master relationship (85 Lifetime), and develop pack Relationship (65 Lifetime). Unlike stray dogs, wolves can dig holes, eat flowers, roll in flowerbeds, or knock over the trash without being greeted. There is a chance that pets will run away after losing a fight against a wolf.

Once adopted, their behavior and genetics are those of wolves. A wolf bred with another wolf will produce a wolf, but will always produce a dog when bred with a dog. Adopted wolves often howl at night and awake sleeping Sims.

The Pack leader is a special kind of wolf, which can transform Sims into werewolves.

Notes

  1. When viewed in SimPE, wolves are identified as large dogs, but they have an NPC code of 002B. Large dogs don't have an NPC code, and stray dogs are listed as Townies in the Sim Browser.
  2. This will be fulfilled when the wolf appears on the lot, even if the Sim with the want is not in a position to actually see the wolf. It will even be fulfilled if the SIm is asleep.
