I was having some pretty terrible graphic glitches after I installed Pets and just found out yesterday that Nvidia released (on October 24th) a bunch of driver updates for their cards. If you haven't tried updating your drivers in the past couple of days, give it a try now and see if it helps. It helped me out a lot. The game is still not perfect. It lags a bit here and there, but still a huge improvement.

Thanks for the reminder.
go to nvidia's website and look and see if your one has an update
It does! Thank you =D
i haven't played yet but i am going to soon to see if it works i will let you know
Every time I try it says that the system isn't compatible or something. Can't remember exactly.
I think the "no fluff" issue is primarily an ATI card thing, though there may be some NVidia cards that are affected. Hopefully ATI will be following suit and releasing driver updates soon that will correct this problem for most people.
I'm about to try that haha. Thank you for the suggestion! =D
but for now pets works more than fine, I just don't have reflections turned on or high detailing in neighboring houses because it'll lag and over heat
Edit: never mind there was a BIOS update that I needed and now I was able to update my video card too. hmm maybe I can use reflections now
It's not an issue with updates. The game is glitching out with some cards and we can't see fluff. (feels like I am arguing over deformed pets)
That may be true, but already a couple users who got the newest update from Nvidia have reported that their pets now look normal. So there may be something to it.
What? Uh oh, that's not good. I have an Asus notebook UL50VT/UL50Vg series with a Nvidia Geforce G210m card built in. That totally sucks though! My game freezes up all the time and is a serious lagger since installing pets. Boo =(
The graphic issues aren't that big, just the dogs and cats faces and fur look strange. So I don't know what it is. I hope I don't have to get a new card, but I guess I will if I have to.
I have the same card and same problems. Im updating my card now...if theres no change I will probably wait on it then. Im glad the horses are perfect thats all I really care about. but now I want dogs and cats and I cant stand the way they look. I got a foxhound and he doesnt look too bad. Thanks!
Sometimes when you install a new EP or a new driver some of the settings go back down to their default. You should check your graphics options and make sure the sliders are where they should be. Also make sure 'advanced rendering' is turned on.
yep they look better too!
