The Sims are expecting... a whole litter of little furry friends will enter their world any day now!

There's something for every gamer, so check out these highlights to see the unique adventures and mischievous fun that each variation offers.</p> <p style="font-color: #FFFFFF;">PC (In Stores Oct. 19th*)</p> <p><strong>Puppy (and Kitten) Love</strong><br /> Your Sims can breed their dogs and cats and get a litter of scampering puppies or feisty kittens. These pets will inherit their parents' genes so you might get a pup with the father's tail and the mother's coloring or a kitten who is the spitting image of its dad. These adorable offspring will also inherit personality traits from their parents, so if Mimi is a cowardly dog, her pups might be too-unless they take after their father, Brutus!</p> <p><strong>Working Like a Dog (or Cat!)</strong><br /> In the PC version, your Sims' pets can have careers. Is Lucky a gorgeous dog with a lot of personality? Launch her on a path to stardom by starting her on the Showbiz career path. Does Smudge always want to lend a helping paw? Set her up in a Service career. Is Z-nut really a tough, super-protective pooch? She's perfect for the Security career path.</p> <p><strong>Friends for Life</strong><br /> When your Sims adopt a pet, they gain a lifetime companion. Their animal pals will age along with them as they experience all of life's great moments. Their pets will be there to share those events-and may even create some of their own!</p> <p><a href="internal:sites/simsnetwork.com/files/news/2006/20061017-trainer-dogfetch.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img src="internal:sites/simsnetwork.com/files/news/2006/20061017-trainer-pettrainer_dogfetch.jpg" alt="The Sims 2 Pets" /></a></p> <p style="color: #FFFFFF;"><strong>PlayStation&reg;2,</strong> (In Stores Oct. 19th*)<br /> <strong>PlayStation Portable (PSP)</strong><br /> (In Stores Dec. 6th*)<br /> <strong>NINTENDO GAMECUBE&trade;</strong><br /> (In Stores Oct. 19th*)</p> <p><strong>A Walk in the Park</strong><br /> Create the perfect dog or cat, then have your Sims can take their pets for a stroll in the park.
