Is anyone having this trouble? Involving the hamster and sim mastering sleep standing.

Today I was playing the sims 4 and I had my sim try to interact with the hamster. Thing is that hamster would not stop running on it's wheel (Somehow sent me a postcard lol) and my sim will just stand there and be waiting and other things he would like to go do just stack up and stay that way even when I cross them out (Including whatever I am having want to do with the hamster. It even shows him sleeping when he is still standing there. (Now that is talent.) Also, I think the radio is haunted. I turn it off and it turns back on. Now I did the reset sim thing many times and many times it will happen again. So, I decided to just close out and it got stuck saving so had to do the thing where you stop it from running. I did a repair thing and I think it might be fixed but it late at night and I just to tired to even find out.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. I'm going to do some testing later without my mods, and if I can figure out how to trigger the bug, then I'll make a report on AHQ.
Mods would be the custom made stuff that didn't come with the games right? If so I don't have any of those. I just stick with what the game gives me. My niece once downloaded some custom things and one day her computer started messing up turned out she download something that had a virus with it.
Something wicked this way comes!
I don't use MCCC.
I had to delete the cage from that household and then restart the game to bring my Sims back to normal interacting. Luckily it didn't happen again since.
Yup, same here
This is happening to me, too! My poor child Sim keeps coming home from school to the "same" hamster... but really it's like the fifth or so.

Not sure if this will work for you but my game is running okay now. Hope it helps! Otherwise I have noooo idea and can only assume it's an EA script error that only few are encountering. Or if it's just triggered by certain mods. Whatever the issue my game seems (only have run it for a few minutes but I can pause and switch characters, no MCCOMMAND notification that a file was broken.) to be going good.
On Q&A forums there is a workaround: If a famous sim donates the cage it disappears without causing a freeze. This requires GF and a three star celebrity with a good reputation. I haven't tested this, but maybe it helps somebody.
My own workaround was to move all furniture from the room with the rodent into household inventory, except for the cage. Then delete the room in build mode. Afterwards I put everything back where it was and the game didn't freeze. Obviously this works only if you have very simply furnished rooms that you can quickly re-furnish. (In my case it was an apartment kitchen.)
I've only had TheSims4 for 3 days!
I have however found that also Debugging the cage sometimes fixes things for a bit. If not I just keep debugging my sim but it makes my game crash and lag like crazy after a while.
Hope this gets fixed soon.
I have Cats & Dogs and My First Pet installed on my game and I've disabled all mods but got Custom Content on cos of clothing items and stuff.
