setting up a cozy animal shelter in sims 2 🐶 | pet mods, gameplay ideas & more!

So excited to be back with a fun and chill sims 2 video for you guys. Please remember to ⭐LIKE ⭐ and ⭐SUBSCRIBE⭐ for more of my sims 2 videos!

Today we will be setting up a functional animal shelter in an old house from start to finish. We will begin with a brief speed build, then move in a sim and some strays, set up the lot for the kind of gameplay we want, and also check out some sims 2 pet mods as well as other sims 2 mods I downloaded. We will experience the highs and lows of caring for a big gaggle of animals, including pets running away, peeing everywhere, being adorably evil, starting fights, and much more!

Feel free to use the timestamps to skip around!
