Why only a 6 pet limit?

[simmese]

Its so not fair 

I spent ages befriending a gorgeous Unicorn , but the invite to join household option never displayed as clickable ... when I hovered over the greyed out option it told me I had all the pets I was allowed 

So either I get rid of the 3 dogs or stop breeding Cyclone and Rayne so I can have the Unicorn (she is pregnant again , thats why im at the 6 pets limit)

I dont want to do either
so no Unicorn for me in this game 

I just cant play a sim thats supposed to be me and not have my three dogs with me , it wouldnt feel right
even though I really want to breed horses and keep the offspring and breed them too and the dogs being there is seriously limiting my game I just cant get rid of them , losing the dogs will upset me too much to the point where I wont want to play the game at all ... how daft am I

Hey simmese, I've moved your topic to the Pets board for you.

Perhaps you could split the household and have the dogs live with "you" and the horses with another Sim on a seperate game file? Also, if you're comfortable using game modifications, I'm pretty sure there'd be one that would allow larger households.

@simmese:

I edited the subject of this topic to remove the part about it being stupid.  I'm sorry it upsets you, but this is the way the game was designed.  Calling it stupid or unfair accomplishes nothing.  You just need to figure out something else.  Like, either the mod that Ausette mentions or maybe play a game where the Sim isn't you and wouldn't need your dogs. 

Also, please go easy on the smileys.  It makes posts look noisy when there's too many.  Thanks very much.

Twallan's Story Progression is one mod that allows you to change the household number limits for Sims and pets both. The default of 6 really is a low a number for a breeding project, especially if one also wants a dog or cat on the side.

Twallan is a well know and respected modder whose is considered to be pretty safe for the progam.  His website is http://nraas.wikispaces.com/.  Scroll down to see the list of mods.  Story progression is I believe a very popular mod, though I don't personally use that one.
