I like playing all the Sims 2 games that I've tried, and this is no different. It's enjoyable. There are a few frustrations, but they're easy to work around, and deal more with mobility than anything else... such as the fact that the puppies can't go up and down stairs to get out of the house, and your Sims will keep setting the pup down instead of carrying him or her with. It all works out in the end, though.
So Much Fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this game this has a wide variety selection of pets. Large dogs,small dogs and cats. You can even create your own pets,style their color,choose collar.The only problem is going to the pet store and buying items. How do you get water for your pets but they do drink their urine. Have fun!!!!!!!!!
Lots of fun..

I'm amazed with the this expansion pack as SIMS 2 has done it again with their graphics and outstanding 3-D work. I don't get to play it all of the time as I have other commitments however when I do, it can get very addicting as you loose track of time. It's a lot of fun and I have found it relieves my stress level from working.
Addictive as Hell.......

Well, I loved the Sims games for the PS2, but I had no idea how much more there was to the game until I got the PC version. You have complete control over all aspects of the game, where as on the PS2 it is pretty limited. You can create your own characters anyway that you want & make them look really funky, same thing with the pets. You can make your house as big as you want & have as many things in it as you want without the fire hazzard. If you're someone that has a PC & has never tried the Sims on it, I highly recommend it. I've had this game for about a month & I haven't done everything there is to do & I play it pretty regularly. The only negative is that you should definitely have a video card that's at least 256 megs because if you don't it will be real choppy. But, with all the expansion packs that they offer, the possibilities are endless! Have fun!
The best expansion so far!!

I just loved this expansion!! It is so creative and gives you the chance to interact to very well designed animals. The moves and characteristics of these pets are amazing, it's almost like a real pet!. I will say that is even more fun to play with this expansion than with the game itself!

While I do love the new pets, I was kind of hoping for a bit more seeing as it is an expansion pack. College and Open For Business gave another location you could take your sim (not just more stores) and Seasons created some sort of timetable in the game besides just getting old. Maybe I'm just being picky, but Pets lacks that wow factor the others have. To me it feels almost less than an expansion, yet more than one of the "stuff" packs. The additional objects were not so amazing or different than before or what has been available on fan sites for a while. Though I do like it, I'm very happy I waited and didn't have to buy it at full price, otherwise I would have felt like I overpaid.

The Pets Expansion is my favorite. I bought the Business one, Bon Voyage, and Seasons. But I think the pets are really fun. I always end up making cats but the dogs are cool too. If you don't take care of your cats, they'll scratch up your furniture. And the dogs misbehave too if you don't treat them right. And sometimes the humane society will even come and take them away.
I had some trouble finding out how to buy products for my pets because I don't feel like the booklet that came with the expansion was too helpful. But maybe part of the fun of the game is discovering these things for yourself, if you don't get too frustrated in the meantime.
But I definitely recommend it.
THE BEST EXPANSION PACK!!!

Out of all of the sims 2 games, pets is the best. I have all of them and this one rocks! You can have dogs, cats, i think hamsters, oh, and parrots. (You can teach the parrot to talk!) You can even breed your dogs and cats. There is really cool stuff for the pets in this game, like these huge pet houses that are like as big as a bed! The puppies are really cute when you have them. So like I said, the best game ever!
Over-rated, but fun while it lasted.

I've waited months for this game to come out. I got it the first day and was SO excited. But, this game takes up SO much memory on my computer and i have to sit there and wait soo long for all the menus to load....loading a game, create a pet, create a family...it's just not so fun anymore due to extreme lag and constant loading. Obviously, its not JUST the pets game, if you have every other Expansion Pack before it then you would have problems. I don't know why EA keeps creating more and more expansion packs to fill up your WHOLE drive, its fun, but its getting more insane with the lag!
But other than that, it is a real let-down. This game was very over-rated. It is a ton of a lot better than Unleashed for regular Sims, but there is nothing to do once you have a pet. My experience was:
"Yay! I got a pet!"
"All right! I taught it some tricks!"
"Cool...it had ONE puppy/kitten"
"Ok, it has a job"
"Umm...NOW what?"
I don't even get any more pets because it makes the house SO hectic! Every pet gets in the way of the house AND the gameplay. I'd have to stop what I'm doing and go tell it NOT to rip up furniture? *sigh*
what i like best

sims 2 pets is awsome. i think it helps kids to understand how to live with a pet. all the breeds of cats and dogs are truely amazing. the unique design of a cat or dog is fun to fiddle with.
improvement:
if it needs to be improved i think it needs to be imroved on the clothes.
a sim needs a good variety of clothes but apart from that all the sims games are cool!
