And no, I really don't like pets. Didn't like them in Sims 2 either - they wrote the programming where the critters are just too destructive and disgusting. 
I did, for a short while ... very short while, like the horses (but, there again, poor programming even ruined that). When you have them just show up in a tiny yard where they don't fit and they are hanging half in and half out of the house ... some even inside the house and can't get out (how in the world they got in there in the first place is EA's secret, I guess.) Anyway - no. I did try playing a cat lady once and that wasn't so bad. They had plenty of toys and things to scratch on, so they didn't destroy the furniture.And yes, I agree, I just loved the Sims and for so many years I spent every moment available playing, creating, etc. I do miss how much I enjoyed them. But, I guess I just had too much of a good thing and somewhere along the line it just wasn't fun anymore. I had actually started enjoying The Sims 4 and was quite ready to move away from the glitchiness of The Sims 3; however, then they added into the Sims 4, game play that just should never have been added in a patch. Down right vulgar stuff. Stuff they think might be funny, I'm too old to find it funny - it's just disgusting. I do miss when it was fun.
(Oh, and I think the game will be growing in a direction I don't want to go in anyway ... saw a guru tweeted something about unisex business ... so at some point, you will be seeing npc male sims dressed as females and vice versa; male sims with female hair and I suppose make-up and jewelry. (Not confirmed, by the way - and my opinion as how I see things will go when they make everything unisex.) (I get sick to my stomach over men wanting to use women's restrooms in real life - don't want to see it in my game.)
