Pets: Gifting or Adopting a Horse?
« on: October 03, 2012, 11:34:55 AM »
Hello! This has been bugging me and I'm hoping someone can help.

I started my game with a sim and a female horse (Beltane), then later asked a unicorn (re-named to Solace) to join the family. I was able to get them to have a foal (All Hollows), and that foal has now grown up. The trouble is, with 2 sims and now 6 animals, it's a bit too much to be taking care of all three horses. But I don't want to just sell All Hollows and never see him again. I also don't want to wait for him to grow old and die. My sims have a family to start, hopefully a big one.  ;)

So is it possible to gift a horse to another family in the neighborhood? Or for another family to ask a horse to move in with them? Or did I miss my chance when he was still a foal?

If you don't want to give him up for adoption or sell him (which you can't do either if it's a unicorn, you could use Edit Town to put him with another family.  As long as this isn't a forum challenge file that is.   

If it's a unicorn, your only option would really be to return it to the wild which means you'd never see it anyway.

He's not a unicorn, so I think the Edit Town idea will work. This is just my personal game, not for any challenge. Thank you!

Edited to add: For some reason I thought you couldn't have just a pet be in a family, so I never thought to use Edit Town to split up the household that way.
