Where to find a cat in The Sims? - in detail

To find a cat in The Sims, players have several options depending on the version of the game they are playing. Here's a comprehensive guide:

  1. The Sims (Base Game): In the original version of The Sims, cats cannot be found as pets. However, you can use cheats to add them to your game. Press Ctrl + Shift + C to open the cheat console and type kitten or cat. This will spawn a kitten or an adult cat in your game.

  2. The Sims: Livin' Large (Expansion Pack): With this expansion pack, cats are officially introduced as pets in The Sims. To find a cat, you can either adopt one from the animal shelter or find a stray cat wandering around the neighborhood. To adopt, visit the animal shelter and select the option to adopt a pet. Stray cats can be found by exploring various neighborhood lots.

  3. The Sims: Unleashed (Expansion Pack): This expansion pack focuses on pets and introduces more options for finding cats. You can still adopt from the animal shelter or find strays, but now you also have the option to breed your own cats. To breed, you'll need two adult cats of different genders. Place them in the same room and use the "Try for Baby" interaction.

  4. The Sims 2 (Base Game): In The Sims 2, cats are included as pets from the start. You can find a cat by adopting one from the animal shelter or by searching for strays around the neighborhood. Additionally, you can use the kitten cheat in the same way as in the original game to spawn a kitten.

  5. The Sims 3 (Base Game): The Sims 3 introduces more variety in pet breeds. You can find cats by adopting from the animal shelter, finding strays, or using the buydebug cheat to access hidden objects and spawn a cat directly. To use this cheat, press Ctrl + Shift + C, type buydebug, and then go to the buy mode catalog under debug items to find cats.

  6. The Sims 4 (Base Game): In The Sims 4, cats are also available from the start. You can adopt a cat from the animal shelter or find strays in the neighborhood. To increase your chances of finding a stray, use the "Search for Strays" interaction on your Sim's phone. Additionally, you can use the bb.showhiddenobjects cheat to access hidden objects and spawn a cat directly.

By following these steps, players can easily find and adopt cats in The Sims, enriching their gameplay experience with feline companionship.
