Firemonkeys really "fixed" the pet glitch

[Lishws720]

They fixed it so well that you cannot relocate a household if you have pets in your old home! You first must relocate your pets to another home, then you can move a household (family) to a different place. I discovered this when I went to move my teen and her family to the new teen mansion. Took me a few minutes to figure this out.

That's true, I also discovered this some days ago (see thread "I cannot move families"). It is really annoying, if you want to move families you have to give their pets first.

This was so frustrating to me! I couldn't figure out why I couldn't move my family and ended up having to put up some reindeer for adoption. I didn't want to move the family in the first place but their home was too small to accommodate a baby. The toddlers grow up so quickly and seniors die so fast I keep growing babies to keep up. Eventually I think I'm going to be left with a town full of adults only because they don't seem to age nearly as quickly as the other ages.

Was thinking about this and it will be a problem for those of us who have used the pet glitch. We won't be able to demolish a house unless we adopt (delete) or move all the pets away. So we may want to leave one or two houses with just 2 pets. If you have lots of reindeer available you could put extra deer at the site and then adopt them out if you decide to demolish the house later.

I am also having a problem moving a sim who has a child, even though her son is now a teen. I temporarily moved her into the building where her current partner lives, leaving her mansion occupied by her (then toddler) son and his nanny(a senior). When the nanny died, the toddler was left alone in the mansion, and has aged up and become a teen. I moved him into a good friend's house and tried to move his mom back into the mansion, but the dialogue said I couldn't move her because she had a child to take care of! They aren't even living together anymore, and the mansion is vacant....and I can't move her partner with her because he has three pets. What a mess!

How do I adopt my pets out to relocate my families? Super frustrated as I want to move several of my families in to new larger houses I have built! Before my pets just went with the family when I relocated them and I don't get why the problem now!

Click on the pet, select relocate. An option will pop up that says put up for adoption.

Be careful with putting a pet up for adoption, when you do that you are essentially deleting your pet. But if you choose the image of one of your other Sims, you can relocate your pet to them temporarily, move your chosen family to their new home then relocate their pet back to them.

Also just noticed that the reindeer on my reindeer farm are no longer giving rewards. Might as well delete them and use the lot for another house!!

Are they no longer giving rewards or is the time so far apart that it seems like they aren't giving out rewards anymore?
