Petz 3 is my fav so far

Petz 5 is a great game, but I have still yet to find out if it was worth the money. My favorite feature in it is the multiple litters, but the process of raising the kids is quite a chore. Only the mom and her babies can be out, and they can only be in the Nursery playscene (not accessible from the go menu). When they grow up, you are taken to the Nursery, but then you have to go to a different playscene and then take them out. Annoying. Also, the new breeds are less than satisfying. Their offspring often have weird colorings, nothing like their own. Also, I hate the fact that it runs slow on my computer (more a problem for me because my computer only meets the minimum requirements). By the way, you don't need the CD to run it, like some people have stated. And if you look up on the internet, you can find a patch to get all the toys possible. ... Honestly, I think Petz 3 was the best game out of the whole series. So, if you have never had any Petz games before, get Petz 3 instead.

The Best!!

My nine year old daughter loves CATZ 5. I hear meowing coming from her room while she plays the game, and I keep thinking our cats are stuck in a closet somewhere. She loves that the cats "marry" and give birth. Then she names them all. She also loves the DOGZ version.

If you're new to the world of Petz, by all means go for it. you'll love it. However, it seems that more than a few people have Petz4 and are buying this just because they have Win XP, which theoretically will not run v.4, even in compatability mode. If that's your only reason, there is a software patch available so you can run Petz4 with XP. Just do a web search for Petz and it's easy to find the download.

Catz 5 'downgrade'

If you want the software to play with and interact with the Catz, I guess it is okay. However, I purchased Catz 5 primarily for the screensaver (my previous version would not run under Windows XP). Much to my surprise, the screensaver will not run unless the CD is in the CD drive! My two previous versions did not have this requirement. When I contacted UBISOFT by phone regarding this asinine requirement, they refused any consideration of a refund, telling me it was the developers' decision (but of course there is no way I can contact the developers). They blew me off without assistance of any kind! It is my recommendation to not purchase this product 'downgrade'. They do not care about their end-users and do not deserve to have our patronage! I, personally, will never buy another UBISOFT product

Great game!

This is a great game. I heard about on a website, and explored the official website myself. Finnaly, on my birthday, I got it.
First off, the adoption center has several breeds to choose from, and you can also download new ones. I started my own petz zoo this way. Then there are lots of toys to collect, and games to play. There is also a playscene creator, and I created exibets for my animals and a playpen. There is a salon with tons of clothes and a bath, sponge, and towel.
I love this game because of its many features. Your catz can have litters of up to 4 kittens, and the games are fun. There are playscene hosts, mouse holes, and lots more! Get this game to see everything.

A very good game

This game is one of the best games I've ever played! Very fun, however: DO NOT BUY THIS FOR ANYONE UNDER 8! They get really upset when they're pets run away, because most of them can't copy files. This game, for some reason apeals more to adults, but I would reccomend it to just about everyone. I like the playscenez, this one is much better then petz 4 which was completley full of glitches. CONGRADULATIONS, UBI!

well,petz 5 is the newest virtal petz game.it has new staff,weather and new petz and now for the first time ever on the petz you can breed your catz and have four kittens in a liter.i i going to ask can i have the game for a presnt for my 13 birthday, the game looks so cool that i want to know when its out the weather part is awersom if it raided i don't think the catz will like that,but the dogz would. but having four kittenz wow how could the mother cat look after them all? and what if you had two mothers with four kittens each ha ha.

I think Catz5 is a REALLY cool game!! I mean, my friend has Catz2, and I thought that was cute, but then Catz5 came out and it surprised me greatly!!! I mean, I went from only 1 playscene and a "toy shelf" to having kittenz and multiple playscenes! And I also think multiple litterz are awesome!!! For those of you who like the idea, buy it or rent it!! You know that you can always return it if you don't like it!!!

a cool game

The game its self is good however the "new and improved" security system is awful. When ever you turn on your computer you have to install the disk in order to play with your catz. If you do not install the disk and play with your catz they will runaway. Talk about being trapped. I personally do not like having to carry a disk all over just so my catz do not run away from my laptop.
