My Pets
This mod adds flexible pet ownership and management without expanding your household size.

My Pets by LittleMsSam is a gameplay mod for The Sims 4 that allows Sims to have cats, dogs, and horses as “unofficial” household pets. These animals function like normal pets but do not count toward the 8-Sim household limit, letting players enjoy more animals without breaking saves or causing performance issues.

Key Features
  • My Pets adds a special “My Pets” menu that lets you manage animals without formally adopting them.
  • Choose any cat, dog, or horse to register as your Sim’s pet.
  • Call pets home, plan outfits, check needs, and view horse skills through the new menu.
  • Pets do not take up household slots, allowing more animals per household.
  • Adds custom interactions on related objects such as bowls, beds, bathtubs, and horse equipment.
  • Veterinary visits still function normally; the mod handles billing even if the pet isn’t technically in the family.
  • Horses registered through the mod can still join equestrian competitions.
  • Includes an optional lot trait/challenge that adds extra pet-management functionality.
This mod is perfect for players who want more pets without the household limit getting in the way. Great for family gameplay, farms, ranches, rescues, and storytellers who use many animals.
