Pet adoption is great and all, but the game won’t let me switch back to my favorite household because while I was playing with another, a neighborhood adoption facility took over. How do I undesignate a taken-over house so I can get back to it? I’m looking for a fast, administrative way, not the long solution I wound up tediously using to get my house back last night. I had to cheat-force all the animals on the adoption lot into the active household and then leave them there because I didn’t want to spend an hour trying to get rid of them. And, wouldn’t you know, the second I switched to just-released house, the one I left got designated as a shelter! Which means when I want to go back to it in a few days, I’m going to have the same problem. The crazy thing is, none of these families had pets in the first place (nor do they want them).
I didn’t try evicting/bulldozing, but that isn’t a solution either because I’ve found that wipes out inventories. Besides, I don’t believe I could have… I think the only town edit options available were “save to library” and “edit description”.
