My game was working fine yesterday perfectly fine. But ever since downloading cats and dogs it hasn't been working. It loads up like normal and goes to the main screen but once on there, if I click "New game" the screen changes and goes white and stays that way and the curser is a pencil. If I click to play one of my previous games it goes in and then once I enter my lot and my family becomes completely un-clickable. I can't even see the bottom of the screen where I would click to speed up or pause, and also it won't let me access any needs. The same goes for clicking pretty much anything. The only option it gives me is to return to world mode but when clicking it nothing happens. The options button in the corner is unclickable, even hitting ctrl shift c to open the cheats screen doesn't work. I don't know what to do... I really was excited to play the game but its not working...

Move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues. If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem.
This is a llink to a list of some of the broken and updated mods

There's definitely CC that's broken with the pack but not with the patch this time around. Be especially suspicious of anything animals can go on or under - beds, counters, sofas...
Some CC and mods are not compatible with the pack itself. You can see what some of those are here: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/928106/broken-mods-cats-and-dogs-nov-2017/p1?new=1 For others, it's trial and error to figure it out. If you do identify any I haven't listed yet as broken or updated, please do let me know over there.
You need to do the 50/50 method with all items in your mods folder. If the games works without mods, it's obviously a broken mod or mods. Testing all your mods, half each time, until you've tested all to find the broken ones. And, to save you some time, UI cheats needs updated. 90% of mods need updating after the recent patch(s). Patches and packs always can break mods. Regardless if they worked prior. It's always best to test mods each patch or pack release.
After updating all of the CC objects is missing in all Sims, in settings that included additional content.
Hello @Sims4Princess01
Move your whole mods folder to the desktop.
Delete the cache files
https://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/delete-cache-files/
Launch the game, and a new mods folder will be generated. Exit the game. Then put your mods/cc from the old mods folder into the newly generated mods folder that is in the Documents - Electronic Arts - sims 4 folder and test to see if the issues remain.
