    The fact that you can have pets is a good plus, but having to pay for the whole game and not make it expansion? That was a bad move. That being said, I play this game more than any other game I have in my library. The Sims has this great idea and makes it work. I give it 6 broken toilets out of 10.

    The pet customisation is perfect, so much to choose from. They even added horses which are a lot of fun.
    It's really great, but for me the pets kind of "get in the way". They quickly become a burden for some reason.
    I do, however, recommend buying this.

    The best add-on for The Sims 3 so far. Pets bring a lot of extra playability. Pet lovers hardly find anything better to play. Unicorn included! [Dec 2011]

    The most detailed Pets expansion for the series. Horses, in particular, are an exciting inclusion. [Jan 2012, p.60]

    Horses and controllable cats and dogs give The Sims 3: Pets a good deal of heart.
