I got it, though pets are usually way too time consuming in Sims. From what I recall of TS3 pets, the cats were way too needy. Stupid me gets a cat thinking they'll be like cats in RL and finding out they act more like dogs. The first odd thing I've noticed in TS4 pets is that my cat outside needs a litter box, which is ridiculous.
Me too! I was waiting for a sale to get it and was not expecting 50% off so soon! But yay! I’m glad because I really felt like playing it recently but did not want to cave and pay full price. Glad I waited
I just got it for 50% off too. It's my first EP, but I really wanted it since I'm a *huge* animal lover. So far, I'm impressed with what I'm seeing. I created my cats, and their behavior is so much more realistic than TS2 Pets or TS3 Pets.
Just my luck, I want Cats & Dogs so bad, wait for a sale, (cussing) I have no way to buy it now!!! Have to wait till my debit card gets loaded with money.
I see you can also gift it for 19.99 if you already own it. That's cool. Would make some nice Christmas gift if you have Simmer family members. I'll have to check on my family - and see if they all got the pack. My family are also big animal lovers - so probably have it already. I'll still check - just in case.

The sale goes on until January 4th I believe. So you have a little time.

Cats and Dogs 50% off in Origin and so soon after release date....? I haven't been playing Sims 4 in over a month (a long time for me) and I wonder if I should pay $20 on another Sims 4 pack hoping I will like the game better, or spend $20 on Sims 3 University when I know I love that game. (lost the code for my original Sims 3 games)

Cats and Dogs doesn't make Sims 4 better -- it gives Sims 4 cats and dogs. If you love Sims 4, this is a very good thing. If you prefer Sims 3, you probably should just get University.
It still in not tempting, even at half price. I will wait for a pack that includes small animal pets. My pet BIRDS are still missing from my simself household.
I'm really enjoying it so far. I waited this time because in the past I usually ignore cats and dogs and hated the mess they left in sims yards... but I also wanted the new stuff and world. I've been playing in the new world and it's very pretty to me (if a little confusing at times). I've played one house with a pet for awhile and they are cute as heck, they didn't seem as needy to me as past pets and the CAS is incredible. I switched over to a non-pet household just to see how much "bother" pets are to non pet owners.. and they don't seem to be any bother at all as of yet. Even living when in Brindleton Bay. They run around in the background but don't seem intrusive on the sim lives that don't have or want pets. I haven't seen them in other worlds either (yet), but I haven't used lot traits for encouraging that. I love the new furniture also.. I like the country feel and it expands what I have well.. especially paired with some of the Parenthood furniture. I'd been hoping for more secluded wooded like areas also for my nature/hermit type sims and it has two lots that are basically surrounded by trees.. no sidewalks... they do have the mailbox of course and walkbys. I haven't explored it all yet though... but doing so has been enjoyable. I'm happy with the purchase. If I hadn't had initial misgivings I wouldn't have caught the sale so I'm fist pumping here.
I bought it at this price. I could do without it though. I ended up being much more interested in playing with the MCCC mod that I downloaded. So far, I have only played one premade family. Sims 4 continues to lack all the little details and nuance that made Sims 2 my favorite game and this doesn't change with this expansion. It's just another half baked bare bones add on for a half baked game. For example, in Sims2, when owners clean out the cat box, they actually sift through it and make groaning disgusted noises just like in real life lol. In 4 they go over to it and a bag magically appears in their hand then they walk with NO EMOTION over to the garbage to throw it out. MEH
I gave in to temptation last night and am happy to say my computer has not exploded yet. As Hermitgirl stated I also have not been bothered by pets in other worlds so far. Brindleton Bay is gorgeous but a little difficult to navigate. My sim seems to take the longest possible route to get anywhere. Perhaps he is enjoying the scenery.
I wish I had waited now.
I only wanted it for the new world, which I really like. Well, once I replaced the awful looking grass.
The pets, I am not sure I want to be bothered with them. I have time to try them out, so no rush.
TS4 is progressing so slowly for the EPs I really want.

For me it's alos 30% off. I guess I live in the wrong country... I'll wait for the next sale and hope it will be 50% for everyone.
