Well not today really, but as far as i can remember, the dog (Peanut wheatley) has been out digging around like crazy even if i tell him to stop, the cats are all hunting and the kitten is just makin' his way downtown, meanwhile their crazy mom is just at work leaving her 5 pets in the household behind
With no cheats, from my experience (on a PS4 mind you) its not that easy, right now my sim (literally me :V) is living in San Myshuno, and has to hack so that way she can get money, but on other save files, i can just cheat for all my simoleons, hell, i could get $999,999,999
