I know there are major complaints about these flat pillows for cats or dogs. I also find them very ugly as well. Why? Fly not a fluffy pillow with some nice patterns on them? At first i thought it was just a rug.. but at least it has some depth into it :p

I got the idea the next few days to make pet pillows, fluffy ones and upload them on my website. Would i make simmers here happy with that? What would you like to get most as pet pillows? Let me know, cause I am ready to create :D

As promised.. here are the new pillows in different patterns. If the pillow would be more poofy, it would have disturbing animations issues, so this is as far it can go. You can download it here

    I think people would love new pet pillows! My only suggestion is to be use a wide variety of different colors/patterns when you make them, if you can, because I think that would make people really happy. Also maybe do some different sized ones if you can? Just a thought ^.^

    If you could, could you use the pillow stack from the Toddlers Stuff Pack and turn it into a pet bed?

    Converting TS2/TS3 pets beds to TS4 would be cool :smile:

    That one is so high, the pets would disappear in them :p I will make a big pillow and see how far up i can get it, so that the animations wont be ruined.

    I agree with you. When I first saw them I didn't know what they were until I mouse'd (no pun intended) over them.

    What do you mean "pillow"? Are you referring to the pet beds?

    If so, yes I agree they lack padding and look like rugs with edges.

    I think they're really cute. I don't have an issue with them per say, my issue is that we lack variety. We should have a couple different pet beds, one more fluffier and a fancy one as well.

    My dog rarely uses it. He's got the smaller round one downstairs and the larger square one upstairs in the boys' room. Yet, he just flops somewhere. LOL Sometimes, he sleeps on his back just like my last Beagle did. Not sure if that's why I woke up a bit melancholy today or not. He's only been deceased for two months …

    The beds look like pee pads, ppl use for small dogs. I can’t get past that thought, and never want them to lay on them.

    I really don't understand why the devs didn't include more pet beds and dog houses when a bunch of CC makers could create them just a few days after release. :|

    Both nicer pet beds and also functional dog houses....they work well:

    I hate to tell you that you've just answered your own question. Why bother wasting resources that will cut into their bottom line when the community will do it for free?

    My pets haven't slept in the beds even one night. Even if I direct my dog to, he lays down, stand up and go sleep on the floor. I have to check it with the cat, but he doesn't use it by himself either.
    Still, these CC pet beds look really nice :)

    I think so too, the look is just cute and nice even if my pets wont use them :p
    I like the look of a nice pet pillow somewhere in a room or behind the bed :)

    I don't use CC or Mods, but my dogs and cats don't use the beds either, the food looks weird also, like the ball pit. I have but don't play toddlers so I have seen it in videos. as far as dog houses if you really want one just build one in your yard, put some toy boxes in there and I am sure they will go in once in a while, I have had dogs all my life (and it has been a long one) but never had a dog house or cage, my house is their house, thus the dog door. Dog houses can be a cruel if you make it that way, they need heat in the winter and air conditioning in the summer.....

    Because money is what drives all decisions at EA. We'll have a stuff pack at some point for cats and dogs with nice, fluffy pet beds.

    I just noticed when last playing that a cat "jumped off" of a pet bed, as if it was a padded thing or raised a bit off the floor. I think maybe that means that they are supposed to be padded but something went wrong with the graphic portion of the design.

    I stopped using pet beds in ts3, cos my pets always seemed to find some other place to sleep. So it doesn't bother me that these pet 'beds' in ts4 are just rugs with edges. I won't ever used them.

    I do feel sorry for people who like a pet bed though. Especially those who do not like using cc. You're kinda stuck :(
