Pet this


This set was inspired by Hayley.
Hayley loves animals
she knits blankets and toys for the animals shelters
to help make those animals' stay 
a little less lonesome while they wait
for their forever home.

Seriously cool.

Hayley has NEAD
(Non-Epileptic Attack Disorder)
a condition that can cause her to suffer from
up to 30 seizures a day. 
There is no cure at this time.
Her current wheelchair is a hand-me-down 
that is broken down, manual, and a poor fit. 
This fund is in hopes of procuring
a new wheelchair specifically designed for Hayley’s body and needs
as well as
a portable ramp so she may live as normal a life as possible. 

Please consider donating to help Hayley 
to help enjoy her life a little more.
The #CCforHayley tag has been created at Tumblr by Aminovas
to help gain attention for this campaign.
We've met our £2400 goal to release this pets set, but we have £2600 to go.

What? You want to know about this set? Okay . . . okay 
 
 When you own a pet, you accept that your pet has certain . . . tastes.
You don't understand it, but you take the good with the bad.
....
No more.
You, my friend, have a foot.
Put. It. Down.

Your pet has TERRIBLE taste. 
Plastic Bowls? 
Peh.
Faux Fleece? 
Shudder.

Today I have a set to help your pet 
to help themselves . . .
to be fabulous.
(jazz hands)
Pottery. How cultured.
Hand made with only the finest of wools. Stain resistant ... nautrally!
So retro! You can almost smell the irony.
You pet will be imbued with culture!
Each textile is guaranteed to be at least 45 years old. How many dog years is that!
Two sizes? Why that's just better than one!
In anticipation for this set, Aminovas
has been pulling together other pet related items.
She has greatly improved the impact of this set
with a couple of default replacements
Included (in the zip) in this set 
is the bag default replacement 
when your pet's bowl is being filled.
Choose one
(choose wisely grasshoppah!)

 This file also includes a default kibble replacment for game bowls
and 
the kibble that falls from the bag!!
No. More. Cornflakes. Yo.
Rock on!!

Aminovas has also made some tres cool pet related items -
like the Hayley's knit minion, a Marimo pet ... or what about this
 catnip knit mouse (modeled after the one Hayley makes!)
Oh Bernard! You don't get the effects of catnip! Or do you . . . .
Bernard? Do you hear sitar? Is the room spinning? Good boy!
 There is also the #PetsForHayley tag
where you can download (or upload your own) a new pet!
You can download my stray that stayed:  
An EA stray that was groomed to cuteness
Oh my god - he sits too? Wew! Doubleplus score!
We're at that time of year again
Season. Of. Giving.
Please consider donating to Hayley.
You don't have to be a meshing wizard
Just be you and people will respond.

The gift. Finally!
Please enjoy and
away
(both file formats, photos, and default bag [package format] from Aminovas included)

  1. do i need the sims 3 pets expansion pack for this to work in my game?

  2. I honestly can't answer the question - where it was pets specific, everyone who tested it had the expansion. I am told that expansions are no longer an issue (when one selects an expansion specific item to clone off of) but aspects of this set - the beds and the food bowls - are cloned off of Pet's expansion items and specifically designed to interact with a pet. I would try installing the package files and if they appear to cause issue it's an easy thing to remove. Sim3Packs are an utter drag to try to uninstall (and for that matter to install) so I avoid them like the plague whenever possible. Sorry I can't be more help.

  3. Do I turn the non-package files into package files? Are they required, or can I just use the .package files?

    ReplyDelete
  4. I generally include both formats because there are people who still like the sim3pack and I don't want to limit my audience - that said, I personally don't use them if I can get away with it. You can convert with your program of choice, or simply use the ones I have supplied. It's the same file. Hope that is what you are asking!
