I'm making a pet shelter, I'm really loving the different curve balls I keep getting. I've adopted a cat called Shiloh and another called Mayor Whiskers. I noticed when they were together they were interacting but only after a little while of living together. Sometimes they clean eachother and I see little lovehearts.
I adopted a stray dog called Maddie- she was sick and of course, as a true shelter should, I adopted her and took her to the vet- my question is, she randomly barks and lovehearts pop up over her but she's by herself when she does it, any ideas what the hearts are? I thought it might be two pets falling in love but since she's the only dog i'm not sure.

It could be that unconditional love thing pets have for their "companions". My loyal dog maddie gets it a lot when she's playing with her favorite sim
That's odd. I got fed up with my cat being in heat and whining with hearts all over the place, so i got her spayed. I'm the vet though, so I just took her to work with me and she wandered the clinic and the grounds with a cone of shame on for the rest of the day.
That was my reason for spaying my sim's cat too. I don't even have room enough for a toy box in my little starter house, let alone x number of kittens!

Kit, Your pet is in heat. My Cat sat on top of the fridge yowling with little heart symbols floating above her head! So Adorable<3 So I had her mate with another Cat, and Voila! 2 Cute Kittens later my household was a family of 8
Hope this information helped :smile:

> Both of my dogs, who were former strays, have these hearts and I have been trying to breed them. Everytime I select "Encourage to Breed with..." it doesn't show the other dog, it shows random strays. I have told them to be nice to each other many times, but they still won't breed. What do I do?! They are mixed breeds, but I didn't think that was a problem.
Have you checked that they're definitely opposite genders? If not you can Modify in CAS and change the gender of one of them to make sure they're actually compatible.
Make sure one isn't already pregnant. I adopted a stray cat and couldn't figure out why I couldn't get her to mate with another cat until I realized that she was already pregnant and had been when I adopted her. If you go into CAS, all the top left options like ages, etc. should be greyed out if the animal is pregnant...that's how I discovered it.

Thanks guys for replying I know they are opposite genders, but I not certain that either of them are pregnant. It doesn't semm likely though as I've been trying to breed them for 2 1/2 sim days.
What a cute concept though, to run an animal shelter! I hope all is well.

To mate, do dogs need to interact with each other more? Or maybe even become friends? It wasn't an issue with my adopted dog.
