Sick and loud stray cats in Brindleton Bay

birdonawire

The stray pets in Brindleton Bay have been a problem since I got Cats & Dogs on release day last year - I think it's sad how they're all sick, and you can't do anything about it, unless you adopt them.
Since I got Seasons a few days ago it seems to have gotten even worse. There are a lot more stray pets (especially cats) and every single one of them is sick and meowing excessively, to a point where I can't even play with sound on because it's driving me nuts!

Here are just a few of the sick cats I encountered during less than 5 minutes in the game:




This should not be happening! I can't adopt every single stray pet I meet...

I see a lot of them too ;( I had one of my sims buy wellness treats at the vet, they cure the sickness most of the time, but not always.
Then at some point I was leaving a fool bowl for them, but the dog would use it as his own.
I often see cats I made for my non-played household as stray. I'd like it if we could run a shelter or even take strays to the vet.

Thank you @rosemow - I'll do that!

It's just so heartbreaking seeing all of those sick pets and not being able to help... I might try stacking up on wellness treats and see if that helps a little!
Yes, if they don't intend to fix this, then at least give us the possibility to take the strays to the vet.

You’re welcome. There is an issue at the moment though that the wellness treat is causing an endless negative mood

Oh, I guess that's not a solution then.
